Today we’ll be focusing on Hilchot De’ot, specifically Chapter 5, Verse 1, where Rambam, the great codifier, reminds us about finding balance in our daily lives. We shouldn’t be overly joyous or despondently sad. Life has its ups and downs and experiencing them with equanimity, like the stillness of the sea after a storm, brings us closer to the Creator.

Think about it, and let these words guide your day.
