Hi Miriam, even now, if I am looking for something and can't find, I am
turning a glass...and it works...
Once upon the time, when I was a little girl, I remember a quarrel between
my grandmother and her daughter-in-low...the son and his young wife mouved
to her parents..A neighbour of grandy gaves her an advise, and she did it:
she went every morning, before breakfast, to the cimetary, and it was a long
way from the Albertinengasse to the Jewish cimetary 41 days, and there, on
the tomb of my grandfather she prayed for the return of her son and daughter
in law...the next day after the 41 wakings, they came back, as nothing
happened....I think, that the german
proverb: "Der Glaube versetzt Berge" (the believe is able to move
mountains)
Have a nice week
Hedwig Brenner
