SABOTAGING SIGHS

[62a top] R’ Yochanan: A sigh/groan breaks a person’s entire body (mentally, spiritually and physically).
R’ Rosner explaining Orech Hatzadikim: Worrying is an expression of a lack of Bitachon (faith). If we believe and trust that Hashem is running our lives (and He always knows what it best for us), we cannot possibly have room for distress.

D-E-ep Thoughts: When we are able to internalize this idea (of G-d’s loving kindness towards us at every moment), even ‘hardships’ can be embraced with happiness. We may not truly know how or why things are best for us, but when we remember that ‘someone’ wiser than use cares for us most deeply (and gives us everything we have and encounter), we are able to honestly KEEP SMILING.
