I have a bunch of favorite rabbis. The one that I follow the most is the teachings of Rabbi Nachman from Breslev.
Rabbi Nachman wrote a series of stories which are metaphors for life, spirituality, dealing with the world, with sin, etc. So I have a bunch and anyone interested just send me an email where to send it. Yes, its free!

Miriam, count me as someone who would be interested. You have my e-mail address.
Thanks to your blog many of previous beliefs about Jewish teachings have undergone a drastic revision.
A Jewish coworker years ago shaped that understanding.
She claimed that she never prayed to God for anything, implying that God should not be used to obtain those things that we desired from life, because He had given us life and other means to go out and get them for ourselves.
I was astonished as I couldn't imagine a life where I didn't or couldn't call upon God for assistance.
I don't know if that sentiment is keeping with Jewish teachings or not.
I'm hoping to gain further insights into your religion by way of Rabbi Nachman series of stories.
Thanks for offering them.
Blessed be.
Oh my goodness! Rebbi Nachman says we should pray if a button is needed for a shirt. (from the smallest of things to the largest)
I'll email you. I had a book reserved for you (but was too timid to offer it lol)
Anymore left?
Did you know I grew up in a Breslov family? (Not the crazy Nah Nah kind!)
Anyway - Im not Breslov now, but reading your R' Nachman posts make me want to reconnect.....
:-)
Yes! I have one last one. Yay! I email u for details.
