Everything Hashem does is for the best! If the swaying of a blade of grass is brought about by Hashgacha Pratis and is crucial to the fulfillment of the purpose of Creation, how much more so with regard to mankind in general, and B'nei Yisroel(the people close to him) in particular! (Hayom Yom)

On Sale
Mrs. Baum was marrying off her son and wanted to buy herself a new dress for Sheva Brachos. Sunday afternoon Mrs. Baum called a friend to invite her to go on a shopping spree at the mall in search for a new dress.
Hopping from store to store she finally found a dress she absolutely loved. It was perfect!
After trying it on she saw the price tag. It was two hundred dollars, way out of her budget. Disappointed, Mrs. Baum hung it back on the hanger and headed for the next store. While she was shopping she couldn't find anything and decided to go back to the other store and just buy the expensive dress.
They headed back to the store and discovered it had closed for the day. She was really upset at herself that she didn't buy it before.
Empty handed the two left the mall and headed for home.
The following week Rabbi Baum saw that his wife was upset that she didn't get the dress. He offered to go with her back to the mall to buy it.
When they got to the store Mrs. Baum made a bee-line to the dresses. In front of her was her dress, with a tag that said ON SALE: Sixty Dollars!
