this subtle shadow

There is a common misconception that the good things in life come from being in the right place at the right time.

In truth, everything that is good comes from being on the right channel with the right reception.

This is what the sages call z’chut—sometimes translated as “merit.”

What it really means is a kind of fine-tuning of the soul.

How do you fine-tune the soul? You have three knobs: What you do, what you say and what you think.

Adjust them carefully for static-clean reception.

~Rabbi Tzvi Freeman

you know how to do these things….

inquiry for today- mesmerize yourself

sweet nothings

I was laying in bed one night and I thought ‘I’ll just quit…to hell with it.’ And another little voice inside me said

‘Don’t quit…save that tiny little ember of spark.’

And never give them that spark because as long as you have that spark,

you can start the greatest fire again.

~Charles Bukowski
