Trouble

by Dr. Harry Hamburger

Trouble can be your friend
or can be your foe
it all depends on attitude
knowing which way to go

Can make you change path
and walk the proper way
compel to close your mouth
if unkind words you say

Trouble sometimes is very pretty
puts temptation in your heart
so that abandon your Love
and tears both worlds apart

Know that good and bad
come from the same place
accept them as a gift
and light will shine from face

Married to Claudia, the Hamburgers have two boys - Jordan 15, and Joshua 9.  Part of Jordan’s bar mitzvah celebration consisted of visiting Israel, where he read part of his Torah portion on top of Masada.  Joshua is a very spiritual young boy who lecturers his Dad daily on proper behavior.

After visiting Israel twice, Dr. Hamburger says, “I feel like it is my real home, and that I am living in exile in Miami.  I hope one day to have a home in Israel.” The doctor is a serious student of both Chabad and Breslov Chasidism, and supports both. Dr. Hamburger is also a long time benefactor of the Lev LaLev Fund.
