Imaginary Kindness
B"H
Imaginary Kindness
------------------
Most of the favors we do for others are things they do not need. They only imagine they need these things, since we live in a world propelled by fantasies.
But this does not matter. They are acts of kindness, nevertheless, and G-d desires to be found in acts of kindness. And where can kindness be performed? In a world of delusions, where people imagine all sorts of needs.
The highest, indeed, is found in the lowest, the deepest truths in the muddiest pit of confusion.
