Yesterday was a very hard day for both of us.
We found out that someone that we both knew was niftar in the most horrific way. The news said he jumped out of the ESB and committed suicide. I really would like to believe that it happened some other way. Honestly, it just does not make any sense. Moshe Kanovksy was a good, sincere, nice, normal guy who lived in our neighborhood and came to us for Shabbos meals. Adiel knew him from Yeshiva. The whole situation is just so bizzare that he would just do that to himself, with zero warning.
Every time I think about his leg just falling down I get sick. I want to believe that someone pushed him, or at least some demon possessed him to do it. It’s not something he would have done. It’s just not. And this is so eerily dejavu of what occurred last year. (http://www.hashkafah.com/index.php?showtopic=20274 ). You know the A’s are still suffering so, even though the rest of us have moved on.
What is this world coming to? How can we make sense of this?
Hashem should give his family strength and nechama in this difficult and tragic time.
Almost overshadowed by this horrible tragedy is the fact that my own Aunt Leah was niftar last week, and Mommy is sitting shiva. Aunt Leah was a wonderful, kind person who never had a bad word to say to everyone. She is the first person that ever made challahs with me, and she showed me how to braid them using twisty ties. We made the shlissel challah in her memory. Mommy is sitting with her siblings until Wednesday.
