Give someone a smile today.

It is a greater thing to give someone a smile then a glass of milk.  One of the most important ways to grow spiritually is to feel good about yourself. When a person feels good about themselves they have confidence that they can grow.  By helping another person to feel good about them self we are helping them to grow.

from a Shiur by Rabbi Orlowek, "Stategies of the Yetzer Harah"

Why are things so difficult for the Jewish People right now.

Hashem is making things very difficult for us right now so that the only way that we can solve our problems is to unite together as one nation.  Achdus brings Geulah.

heard in a Shiur by Rebbetzin Kalmonovitz
