DAILY DOSE: Be a Mentsch
B"H
Be a Mentsch
------------
There is a way to reach G–d by just being a mentsch.
A mentsch is someone who respects the needs and wishes of others--especially the desires of those in his care.
In the care of each of us is entrusted a G–dly soul, and her only desire is to return to the bosom of her Beloved Above. Her Beloved, as well, reaches out to her, yearning to show her His love.
Even as this G–dly soul resides within your care, the two lovers can be reunited. There is but one condition: She must adorn herself from the wardrobe He has provided her for the journey, with luminous deeds and acts of beauty. He, too, will adorn a matching set. Then they will meet together, within the circumstances of your world, within the den of your heart.
And you, being a mentsch, could you stand in their way?
