DAILY DOSE: Z'chus
B"H
Z'chus
------
There is a common misconception that life is about being in the right place at the right time. In truth, your experience has as much to do with what is happening inside you as with what is happening outside. If your soul is not prepared, a paradise of miracles could become a roller coaster from hell.
This is what the sages call z'chus -- sometimes translated as merit. It means a refinement of the soul so that it may receive good.
