MISERABLE MEN

[70b middle] Gemarah: There is a disagreement about if a father would tell his children about an unpaid loan.
Yad Ramah: If a father had something that he lost (ie: an investment), and is in pain because of it, he would surely share his pain with his children. R’ Rosner: Misery loves company.

D-E-ep Thoughts: People generally look OUTWARD for comfort during difficult times. Instead of relying on externalities for joy, we should be able to develop a fortitude focusing INWARD. This power only comes from reaching UPWARD.

Today’s P.I.P. (Put Into Practice) TIP: When we need extra strength, take a few moments to talk to and connect with the Highest Power that there is.
