New, True, and Interesting. Thursday, April 23, 2009. A new name for an old blog. Well, this is the task I'd like to challenge myself with on this blog. I need to make sure I don't get intimidated by the name, and hesitate to post things because I'm not sure if they're new, true, or interesting enough, but I hope that this name change will do something to frame (in my mind, at least) what this blog is supposed to be. Links to this post. In the bracha of sh'ma koleinu, we start out with 3 requests:.

New, True, and Interesting: November 2009

New, True, and Interesting. Sunday, November 08, 2009. I heard a wonderful quote over shabbos (wrongfully attributed, but Google fixed that.):. A second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.". The idea behind this quote extends far beyond the context of marriage. Very often in life, we tend to give up when things don't go the right way. Whether it's in our relationship with G-d, others, or (especially? The one running a marriage workshop. Links to this post.

New, True, and Interesting. Friday, March 27, 2009. Jerusalem: A Lightbulb Factory? This is the article that I had published a few weeks ago, a revision of an earlier blog post from here. Enjoy. At a wedding I went to a few weeks ago, one song that they song caught my attention. The song was was Yershalayim Oro shel Olam: “Jerusalem is the light of the world, and Who is the light of Jerusalem? The Holy One Blessed be He.”. What does this song mean? A darkening of that light. Explaining to people how Isra...

New, True, and Interesting. Monday, January 19, 2009. Beauty: The Rockies or Harei Yehuda? About a month ago, we had a discussion on Areivim about the value of appreciating nature. It started with discussion of the famous quote by Rav Hirsch. At one point, Rav Hirsch decided to go on a trip to visit the Alps. He explained that he needed to go on the trip because one day when he reaches the next world God was going to ask Him, "Did you see my Alps? But do they need to be? While I don't know how far I woul...

New, True, and Interesting: A Second Marriage

How many of his personalities did that woman marry?

New, True, and Interesting. Tuesday, April 11, 2006. Ways of Viewing the Orthodox Community. This is an essay that I wrote for my College Writing class, and since it speaks about the blogosphere, I decided to do none other than blog the essay. One blogger from this genre expressed himself as follows. (Even without understanding the specific rituals he refers to, one can get a feeling for where he’s coming from.). Oh, I look like a frum yid (Orthodox Jew). My family and friends are completely convince...

New, True, and Interesting: What comes down, must come down
http://mkopinsky.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-comes-down-must-come-down.html
New, True, and Interesting. Monday, June 29, 2009. What comes down, must come down. I am not generally a big fan of camera phones. Whenever something amazing is going on, people are always ruining the moment by taking a picture. As if there aren't millions of pictures of whatever it is that are already online. I had about zero sympathy for the pidgeon - I'm sure it got what it deserved. Cute observation. Wish I was there. A professional shot does not even come close. Of the whole thing? To the extent tha...
