Looking younger is great, but being younger reaches beyond the transient and superficial and connects with eternity. To explain, in the midst of all of our freewheeling willy-nilly movements making sudden twists and turns moving between planned activity, being spontaneous and reacting to the unexpected, we plan, experience, reminisce and then jump off into the next plan; spiraling in circular motion. Then there is the aging process; that one group of DNA molecules in our genetic structures that sets the body off into a gradual self-destruct mode from its inception. This insidious companion buried deep in the subconscious of the young worms its way into one’s daily thoughts as time and gravity collect their tolls on the highway of life. We then become preoccupied with our mortality. Time itself seems to accelerate as days become hours and hours turn into minutes and we begin to wonder, “Where did it go? What is the point?” Suddenly it seems that all of the ambition and striving for success is futile begging the questions, “What have I accomplished? How will I be remembered?” However, at any age, we are each an integral part of a perfectly designed and organized machine called the universe, which functions as one single unit, being the sum of its parts. This principle also applies to every living organism and inanimate object, each of which, in turn is a universe of smaller parts all functioning in perfect harmony and synchronization. Thus, we are all interdependently connected and attached to everything and everyone just as individual cells are to each other to form the organism and the entire created universe is connected and attached to its maker; utterly dependent upon and nullified to His Will. Given this revelation, we can exercise our free choice and decide to attach ourselves to the Divine. Consequently, even as we get older we can maintain that same youthful strive and ambition that brought us through competitions and hard times by adding new acts of kindness to our daily routines and perfecting how we perform the ones that we have already taken on. In so doing, we connect and attach ourselves to the infinite instead of clamoring for things that decay and crumble with time. Then we can look back on our golden years over a long life that has passed by in a fleeting moment, and realize that because of unifying ourselves with the eternal Will of our Creator, we have all the time in the world.

Why does G-d consider the sin offering as being the “Holy of Holies?” Because when we Jews repent with a broken heart and ask HaShem to help us to live a life of righteousness, we fulfill the purpose of creation.

You are a true messenger of H'Shem and an amazing teacher. Thank you for helping us see and hear the truth of our mission here as Jews. You, at a very young age, saved a boy's life -- many years later H'Shem saved your life! May you continue to be an inspiring source of Torah and awakening each and everyone of B'nei Yisroel to open our eyes to see and our ears to hear each other's pain. May we all finally come out of our own personal Mitzrayim to witness the coming of Moshiach very soon through our Ahavas Chesed and Ahavas Yisroel. May you be blessed with your entire family and Klal Yisroel to the Geula Shlaima very, very soon. I came to Isralight not knowing too much about 11 years ago. This summer I celebrated my "Bat Mitzvah" at the age of 68 -- marking my 12th year anniversary of my first journey to Eretz Yisroel. I was not Shomer Shabbos or Shomer mitzvos when I first stepped into the classes at Isralight and had the zchus of being given teachers like Rabbi Aaron, Shprintze Hershkowitz, the many amazing rabbis who gave classes as well as you, Rav Binny -- you and the entire Isralight family are a gift to every single Jew who finds his way to Isralight. Continued hatzlacha and bracha. Devorah Springer-Deutsch Moshav Yesodot, ISRAEL Rav Binny you made it so clear!
