I've Fallen, and I Can't Get Up

Do you remember this phrase?  It was everywhere and always cracked everyone up.  Today while my husband took the kids to synagogue, before my nap, I am reading the Jewish Journal, and found out that phrase is created by Israeli's who had a successful business for the elderly who had a button to push if they needed help and were alone.

There are so many articles about amazing Holocaust survivor stories and accounts, and for me it is something that I cannot stop reading.  I am always amazed how people can go through such horror and be close to death, and then in an instant everything changes and they get married, have children and grand children, and thrive in business, it blows me away.

This was from the Jewish Home, page 34 "Eating Diamonds for Bread,



Then I am reading an amazing perspective on Gaza, and following that an article about how the safest place for Arabs is Israel.

There is so much history and background that affects regions, nationalities, and land, there is so much to know, it is so sad what is happening to the Christian ethnicities, and has been happening, but finally the world is taking notice,

Iran and North Korea are funding terrorist organizations,

This is my world right now,
There is still Yoga and Health,
There is still my family, friends, and community,
I am always looking to learn and grow,
Learn from every side of a situation,
Besides trying to tire my kids out after they get home,
God Bless their energy, but bedtime is always a mission,
That is my brain space today,
Coach Yulia
