Day Three: Tiferet of Chesed

3rd Day of the Omer

There is love and there is beautiful love. True love includes empathy and compassion which makes it a beautiful love. Love is often fostered in expectation of reciprocity. Real love is expressed even when one gets nothing in return; even when the other doesn't deserve love. Tiferet is giving also to those that have hurt you. It acknowledges the discipline of gevurah and says that, nevertheless, compassionate love calls for helping all.

Exercise for the day: Offer a helping hand to a stranger.

Experiencing Beautiful Love from my Sponsor

I thank G-d daily for blessing me with a wonderful sponsor who though she lives in a foreign country, is of a different religion and English isn't her mother tongue - is available for me and is lovingly helping me recover! To me, her unselfish outpouring of generous love is nothing short of a miracle!
