Welcome, dear friends, to a moment of reflection on the wisdom of our tradition.

“Who is strong? The one who masters their own inclinations,” teaches our sacred text, Pirkei Avot. We often think of strength as physical prowess. But true strength, the strength that truly matters, lies in conquering our inner demons, our yetzer hara.  It’s about resisting that extra slice of cake, muting the unkind word, choosing patience over anger.  That is the struggle we all face, and in that struggle lies the path to true strength and inner peace.
