Marriage is not about educating
and changing one’s spouse,
it is about fostering a relationship
based on the respect
for your spouse’s outlook on life
and his or her personal opinions.

Adapted from a letter of the Rebbe, of righteous memory.1

Spousal Relationship Amen! Reply

Spousal relationship So many people avoid relationship in this day and age. They want people to respect them without giving respect, first without expecting return. I agree if one exects to educate or change a spouse through marriage then it is best to wait for the comlete change they expect from their view. They might have to wait a lifetime but this should be done before marriage. What I mean is a person will have to wait a lifetime and alone. A high price to pay to have it your way. Reply

Many have struggled to describe Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, the seventh leader of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement. A task so daunting due to the multifariousness of the Rebbe’s personality and achievements.

Rather than attempting to describe the Rebbe, this forum will share hitherto unknown tidbits of information about his life and teachings — information that was recorded in writing, audio and video.

Join us as we explore the Rebbe’s life and teachings. Manuscripts, letters, firsthand experiences and more.
