This reminds me to stop and look for what is going on around me today. How am I living and experiencing this day? It seems like I am always looking ahead to next month or next year or 5 years from now. Being where I am and living in the now makes my days much more meaningful and maybe people will realize I hear and see them when they are talking to me.

We rush through life and miss so much. We have a purpose here and now before we get anywhere else. I need to be reminded of that on a regular basis, but I am growing and getting more aware. I am going to print this and carry it with me. Thank you.

It hit a spot in my heart. I guess that all the difficulties I have been experiencing make sense in this context. I have been trying to accept and understand why I go through what I go through and can't seem to get out of. Now I think I can let anger, disappointment and despair take a back seat and just live in this moment

On this point dear Rabbi, I must respectfully disagree, as Hillel did often with Shammai.

Our purpose in life paradoxically is to return to what we were before, and return the world to what is was before, while still being here! Only by returning to the beginning does complete Teshuvah and rectification occur.

Your friend, Harry
