I really enjoyed meeting so many new students on campus all over Melbourne keep in contact and let us know how we can be of assistance to you.
An insight
The Baal Shem Tov taught that in the heavenly court there is no one who can judge you for what you have done in your life on earth. So this is what they do: They show you someone's life -- all the achievements and all the failures, all the right decisions and all the wrongdoings -- and then they ask you, "So what should we do with this somebody?" And you give your verdict. Which they accept. And then they tell you that this somebody was you. Of course, those who tend to judge others favorably have a decided advantage. Better get in the habit now.
