Wisdom, Not Hammers - Daily Dose of Wisdom

"A home," wrote Solomon the Wise, "is built with wisdom."

And not with a hammer.

Because wisdom is the glue of beauty. Wisdom, meaning the ability to step back and see all of the picture, the past and, most important, the future to which all this leads. To see the truth inside each thing.

Without wisdom, there are only fragments. With wisdom, there is a whole. And there is peace between all the parts of that whole.

Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson

From the wisdom of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, of righteous memory; words and condensation by Rabbi Tzvi Freeman. To order Rabbi Freeman’s book, Bringing Heaven Down to Earth, click here.

Wisdom

I sometimes think that is exactly what is wrong with this world - a lack of sharing Wisdom, who walks hand in hand with Love - each the lover to the other.
I try to inquire of myself at the end of each day - what have I shared, and how much of it has been this Pair?
