Yes, I agree very much- What should we do with all this time on our hands?? I think it is especially true for women in general, and for me in particular. Men always have a mitzva to be learning... and women? Well, there's the husband and the kids, shopping, cleaning, cooking, laundry... it never ends. For many women, especially in Israel, it's challenging enough to keep up with all this.
(Adding in a couple of shiurim, some shidduch work- not sure what else they do! Neshei projects?!)
But. Truthfully, keeping house does not have to be so over-whelming- it certainly is not for me!
Not a full-time job, and not 100% fulfilling either.

So what to do with:
a. brains in our heads
b. feet in our shoes
c. time on our hands!!!

All true,
i've found you got to get busy,get into something positive that you enjoy,its not easy to allways find, but that should be the goal
good luck
Someone with your talent level...should find and create things to escape the mundane with..
Like your blog.
Gabi. Welcome :) I agree, that is the goal.. but it's hard to get into things that we even do enjoy. If you know what I mean..
David. Agreed.
'escape the mundane' works- but what about elevating the mundane. I think that's the harder and better goal.
well when youre in a happier place mentally...then automatically everythng else becomes elevated..
Aha. I feel enlightened. It really is a much healthier approach. When we are being ourselves and expressing ourselves, everything we do becomes elevated.
Well said.
