Jaded Sounds like it's a case of winter time depression. Or winter time blues. She is 100% right about all the cloathing you need to protect your self from the eliments. Reply

First Snow Today I parked my car outside in the -19 degree cold and it did not want to start The battery connections looked good but battery acid had seeped into the battery cable connections and created a white residue which is a perfect insulator My battery was unable to supply the needed current to start my car and my car’s charging system was inhibited from keeping the battery charged when I drove it I cleaned the battery posts and the battery connectors so that my electrical system could work properly
Dirty battery connections are so similar to our relationship to G-d and those around us. The corrosive acid of our hectic lives can cause us to become insulated from the free flowing power from G-d that we desperately need to keep our lives going efficiently We Occasionally need to perform some maintenance on our attachment to G-d’s unlimited supernatural power. When we are solidly connected then we can through His power go out into the most severe conditions and keep on running as designed! Reply

Dear Sara and Betty Thank you for taking the time to comment. Sarah, you don't need anything "to add", a kind word is always so appreciated! Reply

beautiful and inspiring as always I have been watching your videos for a few months now and find them so inspirational. Many times they have encapsulated something so important that I had never been able to articulate on my own, and I've told the stories myself, to others (such as the one on anger, and the response to Mumbai, those were especially meaningful). I have never written because I don't feel I have anything to add or any pressing questions that have to be addressed, but I just thought I would let you know that I really love these videos, and I hope you keep doing it! Thank you. Reply

Snow Children love snow. Actually children love running around, exploring, pretending, being children. When I was a child I loved the snow, and now living in Florida I actually miss it. My four youngest grandchildren 2, 4, 6, 10. all girls love to go through boxes, jewelry, whatever stuff you should of got rid of they love playing with. When we went to the beach in two minutes they were in the water, getting there long skirts wet. Anyway there was no way to stop them and was able to put their skirts in the dryer so they could go home dry. If you ever need exercize want to be happy----just spend time with your grandchildren. Their enthusiasm is contagious. Your tape captured youthful memories---and the joy of watching and being with our children. And being with my grandchildren is my best entertainment. B/H Reply
