We Are the Child


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

Your child is not like everyone else; your child is you.

And yet, your child is not you; your child is his own person. A paradox.

Our souls are that paradox—on a greater scale: the nexus between G‑d and His universe, where His own breath becomes His creation.

That is why we are called His children. And we call Him our Father.

This mean that...
...when I dance alone in my home,moved by a happiness that sometimes I can't even explain,I am a child,but, in a quick afterwards ,when I must go back to my sober obligations and thoughts,then I am an adult.

On the same token,our souls only actually truly are the nexus between G-d and His universe when we,soberly and adultly,accept and act under our obligations dictated by Him ,but at the same time we are children,His children, who dance under an “un-kown”happiness,because without His Breath and Hand to sustain , support and give us life (enough reason for the “un-known” happiness),we simply can not survive on our own.

our childrens
Our children are independent sparks of God, and we were selected to synergetically continue Divine project cycles
