Down with Egoism



I noticed that when I am at my most egoistic, I am also at my most stressed. If I focus too much on fulfilling dreams, desires and ambitions, I become overwhelmed, especially when I am confronted with any kind of adversity.

The time has come to permanently relieve that stress by making a firm commitment to serving the Lord—and my family-- and my friends--- and the people.

No more skirt-chasing, no more trying to get published or elected, no more trying to be a star in any field-I’m just working on behalf of my synagogue, Fountain House and other institutions that serve God and the people.

Prayers for my mother, who is in the hospital. I must continue to call and visit her. To hell with being a superstar, when my mother is suffering.
