Keep Smiling
by Avrohom Tzvi Schwartz

Short inspirational pieces by Avrohom Tzvi Schwartz, Kiryat Sefer, author of A Handful of Light, Hearts on Fire and other works on Mussar and Hashkofa

The problem between our enemies and ourselves is that we pull in different directions. Thus, when I get what I want, I deny him what he wants, and when he gets what he wants, he denies me what I want.

Still, every situation has a solution -- a solution that can satisfy both sides. It may be hard to find this solution, but it is there.

By praying for the success and happiness of our opponent, we, spiritually speaking, put ourselves into a `solution' mode. Since the spiritual world is the source for all that happens in our world, it is from here that we may begin to make repairs, and bridge the gap that lies between us.
