Cut the Strings


By: Yehuda Berg

What is the secret to being a good friend, or parent, or lover? Being there.

"Give people breathing space. Listen to them and hear what they have to say. Respect everyone without focusing on and being influenced by their external appearance, and above all, make enough room in your heart where you can love someone without thinking about what you can get in return." - The Rav

Today, find any strings attached in your care-taking and cut them! Just be there for somebody, unconditionally.
