Portion of Nitzavim-Vayelech – the Torah says “it is life or death before you

Portion of Nitzavim-Vayelech –

Where the Torah says
“it is life or death before you …- choose the blessing and not the curse” 

These words follow after Hashem tells us
"you are all here (note - I believe it also means you can also HEAR these words) ...
even the water-drawers and the wood-choppers ..."

and Rabbi Carlebach said

"the woodchoppers splinter things ...- and those that splinter the unity of the people are splintering the ability to come together for G-d's ultimate refemption" 

The portion follows and says "Ve Ha Shev Shvut cha..." - I will return you from captivity - if you will return from waywardness ... 

IF WE HEAR THE BLESSING WE MUST ALSO STOP SPLINTERING OF RESOLVE FOR GOOD IN THE WORLD 

we need leaders who will UNITE us - and not follow the world's tendency to splinter,
and cut away, chop down and allow to rot...

As the Jewish New Year approaches next week-
May Hashem grant us to hear, to be here, to return in faith and love-

and to prepare for a new year and a new dawn of brotherhood and siserhood and love and redemption 

LOVE and Shabbos
