How do you feel now? It's important for me to ask
this question at this point in the month of Av. Why? Because we have
been through a rollercoaster month, starting out with very negative
and
going
to
very positive. The thing we must always remember when we are facing
darkness is that it only takes a tiny spark of light to dispel it.
When we look at the negative events in our lives this way, we start
to transform and see that life is not always what it seems to be.
Hope is simply the ability to see the spark of the Light in all events
and circumstances, especially the negative ones. We made it! We went
through the negative part of this month and now we are experiencing
the positive. Was it so bad? Well maybe, if you didn't have hope.
Let this month be a lesson. Let it teach you to hope. That which
does not kill us makes us stronger. The Light is ALWAYS at the end
of the tunnel, it is our hope in that truth that allows us to journey
through the tunnel.
