I've been getting a lot of requests about what happened to the Mobil Station
and what is going to replace it. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get
in touch with the owner (all we have currently is an address in Texas). My
understanding is that for the last several months, bills were not being
paid, so they were gradually shutdown. They lost the lotto machine first,
then the gas, and lastly the convenience store. There have been several
rumors, but at this point I have no direct knowledge of what is going to
happen. I believe that a gas station will eventually reopen at this
location, but that is only speculation right now. If and when we receive
reliable information about what is going to be there, I will send out
another email.

An atom is infinite light expressing itself as an atom.

A universe is infinite light expressing itself as a universe.
In each, the Infinite Light says, "I am here and I am not here.

Reciprocal Tolerance
By Tzvi Freeman
At every moment, your Creator must decide,
"Should I put up once again with this little creature’s imperfections and blunders,
 or is it time to measure things by the scale?"
Then He looks at the scale you use to measure others.
And with that same measure, He measures you.
From the wisdom of  Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory

Diamonds and Emeralds
By Tzvi Freeman
One man carries rocks for a livelihood. Give him emeralds, he says, "More rocks."
Another carries diamonds with devotion and care.
 Give him the emeralds and he exclaims, "What beauty is here!"
He who values his own heritage is best able to appreciate the beauty that others hold.

The Choice
By Tzvi Freeman
Ultimately, Darkness will meet its end.
 Our choice lies only in the form of its demise.
If we meet nothing but success in every stage of our mission,
Darkness will helplessly surrender. When we fail, however,
we have taken upon ourselves to wrestle it face-to-face to its utter destruction.
From the wisdom of  Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory

"A man may hide himself from his enemies, but not from his friends."
