Beginnings are hard. For good reason. If they were easy, we would prowl into each new venture like a snug fat cat.

When you begin pent up in an iron cage, a tiger comes out. A tiger that breaks through the door of its cage and pounces with a vengeance.

Bless those cages, those impossible brick walls, those rivers of fire that lie at the outset of each worthwhile journey. Without them we would be only as powerful as we appear.

So Opportune...
I love the Rebbe ZT"L so much. His words are so wise and so timely that lately they almost seem custom made for the very difficult situation I find myself in right now.

A genuine, heartfelt thanks to Rabbi Tzvi Freeman for the work he has undertaken to make this available.

That is a nice one and I'm sure that will help me in hard situations.
