WHAT I'VE LEARNED FROM LIFE
Ive learned that although its hard to admit, Im secretly glad by parents are strict with me. (Age 14) Ive learned that silent company is often more healing than words of advice. (Age 24) Ive learned that the greater a persons sense of guilt, the greater the need to cast blame on others. (Age 16) Ive learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you miss them terribly after they die. (Age 53) Ive learned that making a living is not the same as making a life. (Age 58) Ive learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if you focus on your family, the needs of others, your work, meeting new people, and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you. Ive learned that whenever I decide something with kindness, I usually make the right decision. (Age 66)
Ive learned that when I have pains, I dont have to be one. (Age 82)
Ive learned that I still have a lot to learn. (Age 92)

Thanks for the link. I hope more information becomes available and this soldier is able to get home, by donations if need be. We thank him for his service.

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.
May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.
May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.
G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.
