Light Becomes More Evident
Moron
After my 11 year old son did something really dumb, I called him a “moron.” He looked at me like he was saying, “Dad, do you know anything?”
He finally said “Dad I looked ‘moron’ up in the dictionary and the definition of it is ‘a person who has the intelligence of a 12 year old.’ Thanks Dad, you just gave me a compliment!”
Accidents of Birth are Beyond Your Control
“If you were born into a poor family without the means to send you to Harvard Business School or to MIT, you can’t go back and trade in your parents for a set of millionaires. If you are born with a physical disability, you can’t trade in your body for a better model. But remember that the cards you’re dealt are less important than the way you play your hand. Circumstances may be beyond your control, but you have full control of your responses to those circumstances. History books are full of success stories about people who focused their energies on the things they could do rather than the things they couldn’t. Adversity often leads to abundance. When things get tough, the tough get going.” – Nido Qubein

When in Isolation
“Every hand that we don’t shake must become a phone call that we place. Every embrace that we avoid must become a verbal expression of warmth and concern. Every inch and every foot that we physically place between ourselves and another, must become a thought as to how we might be of help to that other, should the need arise.” – Rabbi Yosef Kanefsky
