Step 15 -Daily Singing

Zemer bechol yom - sing every day - is an instruction to hum a tune as a way of being cheerful & even happy.
Singing is good for our body & for our neshama / soul.
Hashem gave each of us a voice & He loves to hear from us.
Do you want to be happy ?
The secret is to rejoice & sing about all the great portions Hashem is providing you with all the time (Avos 4:1).
Singing itself is a gift we all get from Hashem & we need to practice it daily. Praising Hashem brings us closer to Him & there is a lot to sing about that.

Respect Parents & Shabos

Why does the Torah equate the Mitzva to revere ones parents together with the Mitzva to observe Shabat in the same verse (19:3)?
Thus as it is incumbent on us to gaurd the shabos because it is the day for celebrating Hashem s creating the world , so too we revere our parents who were empowered by Hashem to serve as partners in bringing us to life.
Just as if Hashem would have decided not to do creation we would have been in trouble , so too if our parents had chosen not to be there for us , G-d forbid.
We must therefore express our thanks , love & reverence to them on a regular basis. !!
