What Do You Want? - It's Elul!


"In the olden days the government told people what to do. Today, society tells people what to want."

Erich Fromm

I have a lot to say about this topic but, by golly, it's either this or hilchos teshuva and for now I am going to choose the latter and let my intelligent reader think about it him/herself.

My goodness, it ELUL and I have to get my act together. The first mitzva in the Torah is Pru Urivu. From here we see, said the Lubavitcher Rebbe, that a Yid has to make another Yid. I will try to be mekarev myself and maybe in the process bring a few others along with me.....
