Editor's Note:
Dear Friends,
After some serious health scares [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=7E0DA27DC8E3E384395CBB0800AC201E&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ], my grandmother moved to California, where she is lovingly cared for by my aunt and uncle. As a cross-country trip did not seem feasible, I had resigned myself to not seeing her anytime soon. But we were awarded flights to L.A., so we were off.
We spent many hours together and had a great time. We cried together, laughed together, and yes, I also got scolded. As she saw it, I was wasting too much time. "How consistent are you with fixing regular Torah study sessions?" she asked. "Your grandfather would want you to join a Torah class. I never saw Zaidy without a scholarly book; he never wasted a moment."
It's true. Judaism keeps us quite busy. We have ritual-rich holidays all through the year. But this month, Tevet, has almost nothing. Even people who are generally Jewishly occupied can easily lapse now. There is no better antidote than joining a stimulating Torah class. Find one that works for you in our Jewish classes and events directory [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=4F5A1546B2448C37DFE745EECC37D14A&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ].

The very same sages and mystics who explain how impossible it is to talk about G-d, talk about Him all the time.

What Happened to the Faith? (By Levi Avtzon)
