Truth Seeking

Truth Seeking: "Why did Yskov choose to flee the scene with all of his children, property and wealth? What was the buzz about Yakov right before he left the epmployment of Lavan. Did Lavan's friends and family think the Yakov was a top notch worker, straightforward, direct and honest in his his dealing with his father-in-law, Lavan?"

Hurricane Irene and My Need for Control

Hurricane Irene and My Need for Control: "We are not in control.

But after the initial discomfort of that reality set in, I had another feeling.

I realized that, in fact, I was in control. Not of traffic, the future of my children, the financial markets or the environment, but I was in control of myself.

I was in control over how I responded to challenge. Would I be stressed or show strength? Would I spend the time doing something meaningful?

Foundation Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Although the rock is part of the surrounding bedrock, the southern side forms a ledge, with a gap between it and the surrounding ground; a set of steps currently uses this gap to provide access from the Dome of the Rock to the Well of Souls beneath it.
The rock has several human-made cuts in its surface; these are generally attributed to the Crusaders, whose frequent damage to the rock was so severe that the Christian kings of Jerusalem finally put a marble slab over the rock to protect it (the marble slab was later removed by Saladin)."
