Real Rich

Responding to the comment from Elias from Houston. We can never really own anything as G-d can take it from us in an instant and if a person can teach himself to feel that he owns nothing to begin with and that everything is from G-d and is being given to him as.a momentary gift then life becomes much easier. It is horrible to feel that you own things and then G-d puts you through the test where suddenly you lose it all overnight. It is better to feel that we own nothing and that everything G-d gives us is to share and to be able to give it all away freely. Reply

Does that apply to relationships? Your home, your dog, your food? How can you own your food if you give it away? Reply

A wise and wonderful observation
Thank you Rabbi Reply

Wow The idea that we can own our essence, while simultaneously being aware that even this is a gift from our Creator, is mind-blowing. Reply
