A Gutten Moed,
I can not explain enough how this wonderful organization is what has given me the drive to redt shidduchim. I used to think that success is measured by the outcome, yet I now know otherwise.
It is with all the insight , information, tips, tools and encouragement that 10K offers – this is what keeps me going. It is in the zechus of the Yisroel a”h and Elisheva a”h that was the catalyst of the birth of this organization , which has bought down so much good to the world!!!
Success in my eyes has been redefined. It is about picking up the phone, and letting someone know that they are being thought of. It is being kind and compassionate taking the other persons feelings into account, it is about gently guiding and trying to bring shidduchim to the finish line…..that is WHAT COUNTS! Actually bringing a shidduch to fruition is a matnas chinam from Hashem.
This shidduch came about in a roundabout way. An old acquaintance of mine reached out to me about a shidduch for her daughter. It got me thinking and realized she would be suited for a different friends son. I suggested the shidduch, yet the boy was just starting out and it took a lot of persistence on my part to get the ball rolling….as he had many shidduch offers. Due to the fact that it was my two friends kids I treaded with caution. There were two snags along the way, yet it was so clear to me that it is yad hashem, and that there is nothing that i can do to shake and move things along. I was compassionate to the sides during the “snags” and davened to hashem if it is bashert it should pass….B”h with the guidance of daas torah (and we as yidden never lose out when reaching out to our rabbanim)….the shidduch came to be!!!
