Lessons in Life and Menschlichkeit
Chutzpah Dating
Life is tough on everybody, but when you have a disability, it can be even harder.
It doesn't take much to see or ask if there is anything you can do to help someone.
Just the gesture alone can go a long way to making people feel valued, cared about, and that they are not alone out there.
We all need help sometimes, so why not help others? ;-)

How To Be A Gentleman
Now sure how many people even think in those nostalgic terms of ladies and gentlemen anymore, but it seems like it would have some good tips.
Dress (speak and act) for success!
I'm not sure about all the prim and proper stuff, but being a mensch is certainly key to it all. ;-)

Being A Gentleman
The Rabbi asked why did Hashem who is omnipotent even need to create us? And he answered because in G-d being the ultimate good, He “had to create us”—this in essence being the ultimate expression of good by sharing that goodness with us to learn and be good as well. In short, what could be a greater good than extending that opportunity to be be good to others.

Excuse me.He knows he did something wrong, and he barely looks up, trying to ignore me.
Excuse me. Did you intend for everyone at the pool to hear your ENTIRE conversation?
What's the problem?
You were speaking so loud, I could hear you all the way on the opposite end of the pool. I could even hear you under the water.
Well, I was speaking to someone 85-years old who doesn't hear well. You get it?
I am sorry that he doesn't hear well, but does everyone else here around the pool also need to hear the conversation?
So what--I don't care if everyone hears.
Do you see all these other people trying to read, rest, swim--do you at all care?
Well. I'll do whatever I want!
So basically you don't give a shit for ANY of your neighbors, do you?
Next time he calls me, I'll take the conversation inside!
When People Can't Admit They're Wrong
Early is on time.Having grown up in a very precise environment, I can certainly appreciate this.
On time is late.
Late is unacceptable.

"I have seen the wicked in great power and spreading himself like a green tree. Yet he passed away, and behold, he was not; I sought him, but he could not be found.
[But] Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright for the end of that man is peace."How can people forget that the true "big boss" is G-d Almighty in Heaven.
