R. Avraham was a famous kabbalist who resided in Hebron, Jerusalem, and Gaza. He authored Chesed L’Avraham, and was the great-grandfather of R. Chaim Yosef David Azulai (the Chida).
R. Avraham’s signature had the appearance of a ship, to commemorate the time when the ship he was traveling on capsized along with all his possessions, and he was miraculously saved (Shem Hagedolim).
Before you were formed in the womb, your days were numbered and set in place. They are the chapters of the lessons you came here to learn, the faces of the wisdom this world has to teach you, the gateways to the treasures this lifetime alone can bestow.
A day enters, opens its doors, tells its story, and then returns above, never to visit again. Never—for no two days of your life will share the same wisdom.
