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.
