עוֹד לֹא אָכַלְנוּ
עוֹד לֹא שָׁתִינוּ
יָבֵשׁ לָנוּ בַּגָּרוֹן
הָבוּ לָנוּ מַשְׁקֶה
מִיט אַ בִּיסֶל קאַשקע
אָז נשירה וְנָרֹן
עוֹד לֹא אָכַלְנוּ
עוֹד לֹא שָׁתִינוּ
יָבֵשׁ לָנוּ בַּגָּרוֹן
מוּכָנִים כְּבָר אָנוּ
לֶאֱכוֹל כּוּלָנוּ
וְנׁאמָר בְּתֵיאָבוֹן

When We Were Really Hungry
I see people hungry.
They are dying on the streets.
People stop and stare at me like I am a sight to see.
Walking past the grocery store, I see a man dressed in rags.
Needs more food than me, I feel so bad.
Do I really need food today?
Or do others need more than me.
Seeing that man on the street.
Has made me change my perspective, I will not repeat.
In my family we don't keep Shabbat. Except, when we do, we have two loaves of Challah. Half the t reason is just because some like raisin and plain. Oh... and a gluten free challah!!
For a fascinating read about the rabbis' attitudes about food, why two loaves, and which foods should not be eaten because they will give you bad breath, or even worse, intestinal troubles, go to the source above by clicking on the underlined heading, and read through for a while. You won't be disappointed. Add quotes that you find interesting or intriguing here:
Peyton and Leo: Sometimes people say things, and when they get older, or have time to think, they disagree with themselves and say something different.
I think that If you believe in G-d, you can say a blessing without the word G-d except it will not be as powerful. If you address G-d in the blessing, it sounds more powerful to me.
Leo disagrees with this statement because there is a gaping lack of clarity. Some people don't believe in a God; this is a crucial factor.
