A thought: Tonight is the second day of Iyar, the birth of the Rebbe Maharash, when we count the sefira of Tiferes Shebtiferes. The Rebbe Maharash would often say, the world say if you can go under, climb over. I say, lchatchila ariber - in the first place, climb over!
We often spend so much time battling the challenges of life and when we don't succeed we let go and then climb over it. Let's take a page out of the the Rebbe Maharash's playbook. Let's let go now, and climb over in the first place!
Good Shabbos!
