Therefore, the pure righteous do not complain of the dark, but increase the light; they do not complain of evil, but increase justice; they do not complain of heresy, but increase faith; they do not complain of ignorance, but increase wisdom. - Rav Kook
Love Is The Motive...
It is a singular force that drives us like no other. The sages teach that the highest level of serving God is serving Him with Love. It is the motivation throughout our waking moments, what keeps us going, what takes us on to the next day, and is one of the most powerful tools known to Man. It has the power to heal like a soothing balm, and the ability to crush and destroy if misused. We must learn how to utilize this tool, and unite all of world Jewry, and ultimately, the world. Then we will experience Tikkun Olam, and our exiles will be gathered in Peace. So go ahead, make your own credo; finish off that line of thought. Love Is The Motive...

its fun reading all your old posts, isn't it? I do it every so often, its nice to see how much you changed (or how much you stayed the same). you switching to blogspot permanently?
Actually, it really is. And, in many ways, it's eye opening, too.
Eventually I'll be switching to blogspot permanently, but first I'm just moving the archives over to here. Until that's done, I'll be blogging at the old site...
How'd you find this?
one of your comments on your regular blog had this place on a link by your name. I noticed it was a different place and clicked it.
