Hmmmm. The equivalence of what happened today is Sekilah. What are the aveiros for which the punishment was sekilah? we should look into that.

I am so shaken I started blacking out and had to call someone to come pick me up. Maybe it's because I am in close contact with one of the women who is missing along with her family. I am in a fog all down and randomly crying.

Personally, I’m finding this very traumatic but I’m not as broken down as I was by Meron…yet. I think it’s because there’s only one confirmed death, so I’m trying to convince myself that the death toll won’t be as high.

I saw on the news they were interviewing people in Coventry in Lakewood. Apparently a couple from Lakewood is missing. It's making it so much more real to me.

Maybe because nobody was officially found yet, and have hopes that pple are still alive.

I was more shaken by Meron because I had family we didn't hear from. Now I'm also terribly shaken, I'm very nauseous and anxious.

I don't think this is appropriate to discuss when there are people in shock and are desperately praying for their loved ones.

It’s terrible. Many rabanim have pointed out that The kelala at the end of parshas bechukosai discusses the events that have happened in the last year. Straight out in the pshat. Including covid, meron. And maybe now this.

Let’s not go there. Our job is to speak good and look for good in klall yisroel. We have power in speech to make good a reality. May Klall Yisroel see great miracles and yeshuas. May we merit moshiach. Now.

I was in Surfside yesterday with my two daughters, on 95th Street.. I live a few minutes from there.

Thank G-d for the firemen and the search and rescue teams. Risking their lives to look for the missing people.

We’ve been through so many tzaros lately that I feel numb right now. I don’t have the strength to hurt anymore.

I feel so numb. Every week or two there's another suicide. A kid in my city was just found dead after missing since this morning.

I don't know how to deal with it. I can't. I'm so sad.
