YAAKOV SALOMON'S NEW BOOK, SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

 

Some people are funny. Some are insightful. Some are cynical. Some find a humorous touch in everything. Others find irony. Some write beautifully. Few people do them all as well as Rabbi Yaakov Salomon does. Entertaining, inspiring, astute, he has the uncommon ability to look something to give us pause and make us think. His new book, Something to Think About , gives us just that -- with a healthy dose of wit and charm. Click here to order.

    We need to grow up

    We need to grow up and take responsibilty for our lives. People need to stop blaming others for their mistakes.

    the culture

    I think it's about time we stop buying the gossip magazines, and look at real news and real things. We never celebrate the life of hero, but if there is a murderer there are so much support opens up right away. Culture which celebrates wrong thing, which understands terrorists, which supports murderers but does nothing for victims that is the culture that will allow those law suits.

    Wow! I always like these videos but this is the first time I've heard ANYONE bring this up in such a brilliant way.

    Keep it up!

    blame game

    Thank-you for this insight. As a teacher I see this all the time. Parents always blame the teacher or other children for their child's difficulties. But I also feel I can be guilty of this, too. Things that do not go right I find excuses to blame others. This made me think!
