Nothing stands in the way of will.
But without the proper vessels, even a holy can be destructive.

Did you ever hear a recording of yourself that embarrassed you?

The world is in a state of Friday afternoon, Erev Shabbos.
What does that say about our experience of tasting Shabbos before Shabbos arrives?

Based on the teachings of Rav Biderman, the deep potency of Shabbos itself come to life.
It's happening wether we like it or not.

Catching myself when I go out of the moment.

As we have been delving deep into the fixing and blessing of the state, we learned an extraordinary piece from R' Shlomo Carlebach z'l, taught in July of 1976, addressing the beauty emanating from humility- learning from mistakes.

When did the whole internal contradicting perception of self begin?

Let's healthily think about tomorrow.
What are we striving to do as Jews who have come home to settle and build the land?
What is it going to take to untangle ourselves from the place we got stuck in?
