RIPPING RENDING JEWISH CLOTHING

What is RENDING as applied to the jewish religion? It is the wretched ripping of one's clothing, tearing, stretching, pulling, cutting, performed after a loved one dies. There are jewish owned clothing companies who sell clothing blue jeans, already ripped.

There is the misnomer that jews do not and cannot kiss their dead relatives in their coffin. The Torah says Joseph kissed his father Jacob in the casket. Joseph also was embalmed in white strips of cloth, mummified. He was the leader and savior of Egypt. Right after he died the Jews were enslaved in Egypt for four hundred years. 

To not be allowed burial in a jewish cemetery if you commit suicide? This too is a Falsification. Waldheim jewish cemetery in Chicagoland USA buried my cousin (jewish) who committed suicide. May he rest in peace. May peace be with you.

A MIRACLE VS. COINCIDENCE

Image result for miracle jewish
What is a Miracle and what is coincidence? How do we determine one from the other? Did you have a deja vu a time in the present that was just like a previous time you had in the past? Did you think a thought and all of a sudden someone in the room thought your same thought, she just spoke and guessed, not even knowing what specifically what was on your mind? Did you wish for a wish to come true, did you snap a turkey or chicken wishbone and make a wish? Did you pray to God as well as you were breaking this bone? Did you win, the wishbone cracked on your side, so whatever you wished for was good and God will grant it He is on your side, He will grant all your desires as He promises He would in The Psalms. 

Was there a desire you had that did not come true even though you wished and prayed? Do you realize that God calls the shots, not you. He cannot be persuaded. If He does not want your wish to come true, you cannot debate Him you must go whatever way He decides to go. If you are wishing praying for a parent to stay alive, but she doesn't, don't blame God. God wants her and He decides when to take her. She will be in Heaven which is a better place than Earth.

Know that whatever God decides is a good decision even if it does not go your way. Rely on Him for guidance, ask Him pray daven to Him, say "Baruch Atah Adonai". What does this mean? It means Blessed Are You God. When you bless with God pray with God and thank and praise Him, what He gives you is a Miracle not a coincidence. This is what you can be certain about.

A REAL TEDDY BEAR OF SWEET HONEY

Image result for honey bee



A Teddy Bear Jar of Sweet Honey on Rosh Hashanah the Jewish New Year holy day. Where did the Hebrew people get their honey in olden times? They got it from the fresh fruit the dates. The sweet dates provided them with all the honey they needed. To date and to eat dates, to have a beau and to be beautiful as is your sweetened beau, she being prettier than ever. 

A new modern way to have honey is to ask your friends the bees. The honey bees. Be a Sweet Bee like me. Do you sting, not a Scorpion, my sting is virtually harmless, a bee to be so small but to be able to defend himself against sorry lore, a bad time, to change badness into goodness. This stinger on a bee is also on a yellow jacket and a wasp, not to upset a bee, so she won't strike back. 

To swat a bee? Never to be. She will swat back! How to drain the poison from the skin once put in? Take the stinger out and wash the sore with pure water clean it with soap so your not a dope drain it of poison. Wrap it in a soft white bandage, a simple band-aid. There now, you're cured, you're healed.

The sweetness of this honey from a bee will drown all your sorrows, sweeten your disposition and lighten your loads help you deal with your losses. Let it bee, let it bee. Have a Happy New Year.

HUNGRY EYES

Our eyesight, to take a driver's test to drive a vehicle car at the age of ninety years old, perfect perfection not affliction not fiction, not leprosy, eyes that work with a glare that perpetuates goodness, an eye for an eye, justice, a nice good glaze, a glaze of the icing on a cake, angel's food cake or devil's food. It is your choice, a cake that makes the man. Man or mouse. Is there a Mighty Mouse? He as a mouse is bigger and better than a man. Why? He is adorable and also of Herculean strength. 

His eyes? Yes, he has hungry eyes. What is he hungry for? He is hungry for truth, not deception, to not be able to trust because of people who disguise themselves. You have Black skin but a White mother. Who do you know how to relate to, a White female like your mother. The dark genes are the dominant genetics, the blue eyes are recessive genetics. Dominant being the aggressive genes, eyes that penetrate, that purposely want to stare you down. He says "Don't look me in the eyes." So you wear a Hamsa also known as Hamza that is supposed to be stronger than someone's eye gaze, a head with an open palm with an eye, an evil eye in the middle. 

Whose eyes did you inherit? Your grandma's your mom's your dad's? The iris of one and the pupil of another, someone else's cornea? So, now you are diagnosed with Glaucoma. What to do as you are now Helen Keller.

Morse code, Braille, eye implants at the age of eighty-eight. She said she is old and she died a year later. To instead have a young mindset, a person who plays as we play with our children. To give birth to a girl who acts like a boy, to then have had Siamese Twins? A clean navel in your tummy, wash behind the ears. Do you wear a hat? Does your hair cover your ears? I wear a Bob style hair-do. So do you. We are not one we are two too yours truly sweet heart.

NAOMI MEANS PLEASANT-LESS

The name, or lion's mane Naomi in Hebrew means pleasantness really pleasant'less. There is a double sh'va vowel in it that is a stutter sound as if Ni'iomi. Not to speak this name without a frightened stutter. Who was she and why?

She was the mother-in-law of the Jewish convert Ruth, whose husband died, Naomi's son. Ruth wanted to remain with Naomi but Naomi was bitter and did not want anything to do with Ruth, until Ruth promised to give Naomi all her money after she was slaving in the field for a king who she finally married. This king wanted her to sleep at his feet! Ruth was the grandmother of King David by his father's side. They do not know King David's mother, whether she was Jewish or not, not written information in the Torah.

So after Ruth bore Naomi a child she was no longer bitter. And after Ruth gave her every penny she owned, Ruth was no longer bitter, the Jewish female roles in modern times are to convert Gentiles into Jews. There are domestic abuse shelters Jewish-owned that have "Naomi Shelters", warehouses filled with single or married but abused girls who Naomi counselors hide from their boyfriends who are hurting them. These shelters have bed bugs and rats, rat poison dishes at the headboards of the beds.

So when these abused women are "rescued" from these abusive men, they must in turn pay money all their money to a Naomi who often have the occupation as a therapist. A person who hooks the abused females into their expensive occupation, also occupational therapists.

Think twice? No think thrice!!!

PORK RHYMES WITH FORK

Hurricane rhymes with a red and white peppermint candy cane, pork in turn rhymes with fork, a fork with which to eat pork. 

Pork pure, peanuts and a peanut farm, Jimmy Carter to build houses for the poor, peanuts to feed them, a great President he was. Peanuts protein Peanut M&Ms Fork and pork, pleasingly piglet, a tiny cute bank in the shape of a piglet, save your pennies, to find them all over the house on an Easter morning, not to look for matzos on Passover, it's passed it's over. A new year? Over too. 

Just a regular day like every other day, to look forward to your birthday. A day all of your own, to have this day to celebrate not to segregate. Equal housing equal jobs for equal pay, the Equal Rights Ammendment, a good day rolls around again, to have good days every day of the year, a birthday as you create another child another letter, another delicious Christmas meal to feel good all year round.

How are you feeling this week? Jesus cares when no one else does.

SPINNING YARN THAT TURNS INTO GOLD

Spinning yarn from warm wool, a looming loom threads twisted tangled together, to entwine form strings of hair golden the touch of Jordanian King Midas "Rapunzel Rapunzel Climb Up My Golden Hair" as the princess puts her long hair out the window and this elf climbs her golden hair. Hair braided, challah the jewish bread braided, yellow egg yolk basted on the braids of this bread. To be Czeskian to braid your hair up on the top of your head as a crown. A Princess's crown, beaded with purple velvet, smooth soft, tactile, to understand this crown's greatness the royal family Queen Elizabeth II as you feel its beauty. 

The color white as the color of embroidery, not done by hand anymore, factories of machines warehouses now sewing to design these embroidered threads. No more African-American slaves in the cotton fields, no more girls slaving at looms. 

Not to be Ruth who sleeps at the feet of her husband Abimelech at night and then pickin' cotton during the day. So, whose going to pick this cotton? The migrants can do it instead of making them illegal, unable to work, to give them jobs picking fruit and picking cotton. They need jobs so lets provide them the jobs. As a busboy in a restaurant? Give them an education and they can learn information and be promoted into professional jobs, government jobs. Spanish to be learned by everyone as a second language to help these people get ahead. Promoting these Hispanic people's needs and helping them, teaching them to read English it is Hispanic-American Month in this September 2019. The word in espanol for LOVE is amore.

THE BITTER WHITE MEAT IN POMEGRANATES

Pomegranates, supposedly the fruit on the tree with Adam and Eve. The jews say it was not an apple. Not Red Delicious? I question this propaganda because the pomegranate has a very bitter white area that is next to the seeds, if there was this bitterness, Eve would not have offered it to Adam, she would have thrown it into the garbage where it belongs. 

Why as white which is the color of purity these fruits have this bitter taste? Are they trying to say that white purity is not good? Horseradish instead? A hot spicy food additive, that is all it is. No reason to fear these hot foods, after eating these hot foods put warm water on your tongue and this bitterness will dissipate. There is nothing to be afraid of. We need to go on and to tolerate these food additives, until we report them to the government and then they will become illegal.

Bakonettes is a food a pork rind that causes choking! It is still on the market, it must be removed and become illegal. There is Jay's pork rind that is good, no choking. Well, have a delicious day of eating these pork tenderloins and pork chops pork rinds. 

Love what you eat, digest a friend not a foe.

GIVING IT UP FOR THE HOMELESS MAN

Image result for homeless man blankets







To see a poor homeless man, poverty stricken, helpless, forlorn, without food or drink, to be cuddled in a few dirty blankets a small worn out dirty pillow on a hard cement ground, the park closes at 11:00 p.m. then police patrolled. Where to go? Who will let you in? Can you find just one good person in the lot who will help you? To need to go deep into the woods, a forest preserve, and sleep amongst the wolves and the coyotes, who are dripping salivating at the mouth for a meal of meat, human meat even better, to put up a real fight and to chew a human's flesh that is fatter. 

How can we help him? Do you have an empty space on your floor, a pad, an empty couch, if he does not come to you can you go to him? 

Offer him hygiene supplies to clean his fingers and his dirty fingernails, a hairbrush to straighten his hair on his head or a new fresh short haircut to cut off the straggles of matted hair. 

Soda pop? Offer him some. Beer? Offer him a swig. The Saint Bernard dog, the largest dog of all dogs carries a small barrel of liquor under his chin on his chest for skiers down on their luck so they can drink and rest. Physically too weak to work, in poor health stealth.

The Homeless Man is Not a Werewolf Vampire, he is human and is in need. He could be motherless, fatherless, widower, orphan, stranger, a real human person, a good person to not understand how to handle money therefore he has no money. Money being the root of all evil he being too good to use it. 

He could rest and sleep in a neighborhood church instead of on the hard cement ground. Open your doors churches, purple rain, the homeless man is your game.

LOOKING GOOD FEELING GOOD

Image result for looking good feeling good

A beautiful face, Thursday's child is fair of face, Wednesday's child is full of woe, disgraced not traced, Jack and Jill went up the hill. A hill Mount Zion, B'nai Abraham Zion, Zion or TS'ion, it's a stutter of the lips. beautiful glossy tasty lips, red and shiny, kiss me you fool. Can't give a kiss your lips are contaminated lipstick that causes cancer. 

A Cancer zodiac sign, a crab shellfish, not crabby, imitation crab, an allergy, what happens? My tongue swells up. Shrimp in a cup? No not either. Battered shrimp shrimp beat up, send a tsunami to Japan so our temptation erupts. Underground boiling lurching lava a volcanic eruption deception, running away but on hot coals we must sway a dance, a dancer a ballerina a sokol gymnast perfectly formed body strong muscles spectacular a Greek lifelike statue a scholar philosopher. A dance tip toed on the pier of the lake, a shimmy to shake.

Feeling good. How do you feel? I feel with my fingers tap tap tap on a keyboard not to need a nap. REM sleep at anytime anywhere, but to always be alert beware. 

A scarf around the neck a baboushka a bonnet a hat. Do you have a hat? Yes! Thanks for asking. I tie the scarf under my chinny chin chin, warm ears warm throat, a head not to catch a cold feeling bold. 

Typing frolicking, sucking butterscotch candies not drinking scotch. Hop scotch for kids, polo not polio. A recess in the playground for a teacher to play, catch this ball don't throw it away, toss it back on a trip not a trip as in to fall, yes, I caught the ball.  

Swimming in our imaginary minds mindfully crossing a canal a river a lake an ocean, green seas, not drowning no mistake. Kids in the car games we play: memorize car license plate numbers, a plus addition subtract them multiply. Money multiplying, how? You save it. 

A beautiful butterfly flying over butter cream chocolate cake frosting a spatula to suck through the open window flitting the black and orange butterfly a Queen Elizabeth Monarch. An Ark to open and close a dog with Pit Bull jaws to open and close. An Ark a dog's bark. 

A red car blue car family vacation trip, thanks Mommy, we love you tasting sweetness of a sweet sugared lip. A fun family vacation with a hotel vacancy. Sweetness starry-eyed looking good feeling good.

FRIENDLY GOLDEN BUTTERED BREADED BREAKFAST

Image result for BUTTERED BREAD


The churning of fresh yellow golden cow's butter, from her udder, under her torso, squeeze, please. A drip a drop, a squirt, an early morning start on a farm, a strong arm to work laboriously in the dawn a yawn, Not a plight, a fun bright light, not at night, eat eggs and buttered toast, no crime, instead pleasingly sublime.

An egg, not wed, a yellow egg a yolk, an ox stampeding bull, buffaloes shouldered in heavy wooden yokes, not wool, a piercing of the nose of the ox, Nova Scotia Red Lox. A bagel? Be. Cream cheese, cottage cheese, Wisconsin cheese, Muenster and Brick. 

The Bobbsey Twins, books to read, volumes upon volumes, a rare book collection, dusty musty ol' books, graduate college with good looks. Blue robes, cap and gown. The Talmud, a King's crown, one page per day, to carry great advice your way. 

To remember when you were slender, full meals of simply one. A piece of cheese a tomato lettuce. God is good God is Great, let us eat, so we ate. How many? Eight. A brown paper lunch bag to carry not a lag. Not a chore, not boiling anymore. A sandwich consumed on the brown sandy beach, nowhere to be found a blood sucking leech. Each week a blood draw, an arm not the hand, yes, we own this land. Prosperity. Our property. No Trespassing. Sign, sign, everywhere a sign, a holy message, a Miracle, it's sweetly lyrical.

Sweetly singing Mary Poppins, a threaded red bobbin, a red-breasted Robin. "Just one spoonful of sugar and the medicine goes down." An English housekeeper Nanny to speak Hebrew as coffee she brew. An ol' pal to sing America the Beautiful. A hornet's honey jar full. Winnie the Pooh and Eyore too. The bumbling of a bee. Surrounding the branches of a tree, a baby's cradle, a chicken noodle soup ladle.

Hey! No, Hello. No Hi. In agreement? No debate. A companion to be your quill. A breakfast bowl of oatmeal dancing with blueberries to be your fill. Put him at your right side, to have a Friend, no end, a driver in a limousine ride as your guide. Where do you want to go? Not into the ice and snow. 

A desert deserted land, wandering, wondering, Baked Alaska ice cream, nice, chocolaty minty green. Far away? Just a Skype no hype.

HOW TO FEEL CONTENT

Related image



The word Content, how can we feel this way, what can we do to know we fit in our shoe. To be an old woman who lives in a shoe, so many kids she didn't know what to do. A plastic cup a warmed milk bottle, sipping and slurping, a straw that curls like a whip as you flip. Stoning, burning, excommunication, fears of ghosts. 

What is a ghost? Ghosts are figments of the imagination, if we imagine them, does this cause their existence? Do ghosts make us feel content. Movies of vampires, haunted houses. Why is there a war against ghosts. Candles lit to scare them away. To have lightness by day but blackness by night. How to win the fight? Will winning the fight cause content? Imagine a Loch-Ness Monster, actually, no, see him not. A giant fish to swallow Jonah, to create one's home anywhere everywhere, not to be homeless, not telephone-less. 

Back to contentedness. Content to live in a tent. A home for a homing pigeon. 

Are there or aren't there ghosts. If a ghost is nice to you, do you keep him or do you chase him away. God importantly to say honor only He, not to eat if it doesn't chew its cud. Do you feel the restless spirit in an Angus burger? A bull beating and biting, stampeding as he is torn apart by your ripping gripping teeth, to be swallowed into your sickly stomach as his soul tries to fight to get out.

To burp like a baby as his soul descends from inside your esophagus outside to the air it ends.

How many souls? We as humans have two. An animal soul on the left side, as sitra achra, and a divine soul on the right side. Healthy and happy. If you forget about Jerusalem, your right hand will stop working, cease to create, become dust an all metal crust that is really just red rust.

Is the non-kosher beef beast kicking in your stomach, screaming screeching seething "Release me!" a child to force out. Married just a year saddled with a child, yes, I fear.

Can we say a prayer to ease this situation? A prayer for this cow, to feel content now. To be the horse to buck him off?

A feeling, an emotion, from the heart "Yes, Beth, you can use lotion." A Shabbat or a holy day, a smooth aromatic lotion, a potion happiness to happen on your skin. To kiss lip gloss, coconut, taste your lunch hours after eating. 

Not to drink milk before eating meat! Wait four hours. Eat meat and drink milk after eating meat, not before. Your stomach otherwise will be in a War. Guts growling, a fierce fight: morning noon and night. 

To must release this ghost who is not your host. A health condition, Leprosy spit as gossip not the most. Prosperity and fruition. Addition, subtraction, not division. Exorcise, out a ghost, not to exercise on a post. Not a Barn Swallow to wallow. A white seagull, and a brave eagle. Hunches like on a Hawk. A Penguin father to stay and lay on the eggs. Father's rights? Yes, alimony, he must pay, this today.

A family man, contented, his Fatherly Love honored, not prevented. A fruitful marriage, him to drive the baby carriage.

COLOR PINK NERDS AND FRUITS

Image result for pomegranate


A weekly trip to a farmer's fruit market, a place to find all very fresh, newly picked fruits to have enough vitamin C, absorbic acid, juiciness but not in liquid form, to slurp the sweet fluid from a pomegranate avoiding the white bitter surroundings of the crimson red seeds. To be a Kohen Gadol to have these pomegranates and then large gonging bells one after the other on the hem of one's stark white tunic skirt, dangling, like a cow's bell, bronze, brass, ding a ling a ling!

The color pink, to be a "nerd" as a doctor or scientist, to have these pink and purple plaid colored pants, with a pink dress shirt to match, to wear round wire-frame black eyeglasses or large plastic black eyeglasses, to go by a hyphenated last name, to be married as a man to a man. A nerd? A fruit? A piece of round bubble gum named Nerds, to be a doctor to chew this gum proudly, to feel the sweetness of being a fruit and eating fruit, to eat pomegranates to say "I am Jewish and I am married to a same sex partner." And to be proud of coming out!! 

A shirt that says PINK on it, a T-shirt, a shirt that says pink but the word "pink" is written in a pure white color. To now finally after years of fighting hate crimes, bombs exploding in pubs, men who love men and women who love women can marry each other, to have legal protective rights, to have a document of marriage like a diploma from a university, to prove oneself, to be someone who loves one's fellow, and to receive this love back. To have love and to be lovers, to marry one's lover. 

To have a matrimony wedding with a shooting cocoa fountain of pouring oozing chocolate syrup, to dip fresh fruits into this smooth syrup as it drizzles up and then down guided by gravity into a bowl dripping beneath. To take a red seed-spotted strawberry, a piece of wishy-washy wonderful watermelon! Cut plums both rich in red and black shininess, beautiful blueberries, ringing raspberries, coated dark super semi-sweet chocolate truffles, to dunk, to grasp, with a pointed wooden toothpick. To twirl these fruits in the air and to then pop one into your mouth, let it dissolve in your saliva, to move your tongue around it as it then is easily swallowed.

To love the color pink, to love your same-sex marital partner, your husband or wife, a significant other and to enjoy your chocolate cocoa powder, to be a nerd, to be proud of it, as you are a doctor or PhD student, to be a highly educated Nerd, to live on the Gold Coast, to own a golden wristwatch, to love this color pink, even greater when pink is mixed with purple and when you are eating grapes. To leave some grapes in the vineyard, those fallen to be eaten for free by the poor. To set aside 10% of your harvest (taxes) for charity to the poor.

Sweetness, pinkness, vitamin C, glorified, to come in peace and richness. Wonderment.

FINDERS KEEPERS LOSERS WEEPERS

Image result for finders keepers losers weepers


Walking slowly along a path, red bricks colored with tiny glass pieces deep in the bricks to sparkle like sparkling soda, sparkling flooring, a stairway to heaven. 

Keeping your gaze downward in an eternal bow to our Lord, what do you see on the ground? Sparkles yes, glowing-ness as the glass bits shine. Anything else? Is there a treasure to be had? Something someone dropped for you to pick up? 

Walking a dog and finding a $20 bill, greener than the grass it is laying on, so jumps up as like a Mexican jumping bean, into your vision, a money cash bill without an owner, for you to be its owner. What's under the picnic table in front of a Subway sandwich restaurant? Another bill? Yes! No owner, finders keepers losers weepers.

An umbrella! A new umbrella, someone forgot to take with them after they left their chair. Wow! Now you have two umbrellas, the spare one you just found in better shape than the one you have had. Sturdy handle, metal pieces, solid black in color, not large, just large enough. 

In a public shower stall? Found some new soap someone left behind? New shampoo, no sign of an owner anywhere? If you would turn it in to a lost and found, the staff would claim it and not return it to its original owner, anyway. So better yourself to be a responsible owner of what is lost.  

Again, walking on a sidewalk and behold! What do we see? A beautiful red and purple woolen shawl, soft and warm to the touch, hanging on a fence on the sidewalk, no owner to be found, instead to find this garment treasure, a fresh clean laundered shawl, to warm your neck as it covers it and flows freely over your shoulders and back. 

Not in a dumpster, located on top, not in. What is being donated? Does it fit? Is it clean? Need a new mattress for your bed? Found one as good as brand new in an alley? We'd be dumb to pass it up. Creating "found object" fine art? These dumpsters become treasure chests in which to find art supplies. Good Will stores too. A thrift shop in which to be thrifty, creating sculpture out of junk, one man's junk is another man's treasure.

Yes, important to keep what you find, not to pass up what is junk to someone else, is the California Gold Rush to you. An object found to be like a Hope Diamond, to you, means nothing to its former owner, who didn't try to keep it, who irresponsibly left it behind, once someone's private property, but not nurtured, until it luckily, blessedly fell into your hands.

FALLING NIGHTMARE

Image result for falling


Have you ever fallen? Are you ever dizzy? Was your fall a hurtful one? Did you sprain a knee, put a bone out of its socket? Break a hip? Had a hip joint with a surgical ball inside that came out! Was there a step on the ground that you did not see? Landed on your knees? Sore knees now. Landed on a shoulder, broke a bone? How can we deal with this?

When walking look downward onto the ground as if there is slick ice everywhere, walk slowly, put the heel down at the same time the toes go down as you are walking. Feel confident. Do not worry.

Ballet steps. Gymnastic steps. Sure-footed, like the graceful dance of a black panther or leopard, a lion who knows where he is going, to avoid a spill. 

In the process of already falling? Too late now? Then roll into the fall, do not tighten your muscles, relax. Wearing a large thick coat, the fall will be absorbed into your coat, no sweat.

Are you a senior? Over 60 years old. Obsessed with this falling threat, your doctor always asking you if you have fallen? But you have not.

Icy weather, ice mixed with rain, slick slippery, take tiny steps, one step at a time, know that there is ice beneath the snow, underneath, to not take long strides, to tip toe. Walk on the sides of the streets if they are shoveled but the sidewalks are not.

Look where you are going, ahead of you, on the ground, next to you, behind you. Stay alert! Use an umbrella if there is rain.

Once fallen if there are no bruises or broken bones, just get up and go along ahead on your merry way. You'll be okay. No stress, not a problem. The angels are looking out for you. Feel healthy, no fears.

FORGIVENESS BEFORE YOM KIPPUR

Image result for greek flaming cheese



To have a need to forgive people everyday of the year, not only on Yom Kippur, each day if someone dishonored you and dishonored your property, you need to catch a deep REM sleep, even though you have a discrepancy, a need to say you're sorry or get an apology from someone else. 

Yes, there are times when someone will deliberately want to hurt us, advertently, so how should we view this? As a fault of our own or a fault of the oppressor. 

Rule number one, written four times in the Torah, never oppress a stranger [convert], or widow, or orphan. What can we expect if we break this rule? We can expect 100 curses put upon us by God. 
How can we sleep peacefully, after a day of meeting a rebellious warrior who breaks these Commandments? 

Each night, just before bed and right after we pray the Shema for the night, ask God to help us forgive those who have dishonored us and our property, to feel the goodness of Yom Kippur before and after Yom Kippur, to bow to God and just simply Forgive. Then to sleep a sleep deeper than any sleep you have ever had. Not to contrive revenge against oppressors, abusers, before you go to sleep at night. 
To put these abusers out of your mind, to love God as you gently fall asleep. It is in our sleep that God visits His beloved.

A deep sleep, a deeper sleep, eyes moving in fast REM [rapid eye movement] sleep, blinking on and off, to switch the leg foot arm wrist from side to side as you get more and more comfy, to bury your head deeply into your puffy pillow, a nap? A full night's sleep? To always be protected by God in sleep or not, no matter what.

To arise in the morning, to again chant the Shema, to say "Modeh Ani" as we slowly swing one leg after the other over the side of our beds.

Breakfast time! What's for breakfast? Are we breaking a fast? Yes, the Fast of Tamuz. Therefore, eat hardily, heartily, feel the heat of flaming Greek cheese! Rub olive oil upon your arms and elbows. Keep your elbows off the table top. 

A time to begin again. To again sing Selah. Eternity means we live forever.
