When we encounter the truth it is often painful,
it is uncomfortable, it exposes our weakness
and it demands us to grow and to change.

But if when we encounters the truth
and are not moved to change,
are not encourage to grow
and are comfortable with what we have found,
then we have not found the truth at all,
but only a mirror… and are staring at a reflection of ourselves.

Rabbi Elazar ben Azaria said:
Without Torah there is no social order;
without social order there is no Torah.

Without wisdom, there is no conscience;
without conscience, there is no wisdom.

Without knowledge, there is no understanding;
without understanding there is no knowledge.

Without bread, there is no Torah;
without Torah there is no bread.

(Avot 3:21)

Ask a question
Give an answer
An impression is made
Like footprints in the sand
impression in the sea side shore

Ask a question
Give a question
Growth begins
Like a sapling taking root
a young tree well established in rich soil
