Shabbat shalom

Dark Paths
.
"He could have placed streetlamps along all the pathways of wisdom, but then there would be no journey. Who would discover the secret passages, the hidden treasures, if all of us homed in straight for our destination?"
.
From the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory; rendered by Tzvi Freeman.

  2. Indeed, Dina, experience brings wisdom - love the quote from Rabbi Schneerson.

    Thanks for sharing RuneE's Benches on Friday event. I have some more benches to share so I'll have to incorporate Skywatch Friday and benches. That could be a fun challenge.

    Please forgive my delay in responding to comments and emails. I've been under the weather...but am on my way back!

  8. "He could have placed streetlamps along all the pathways of wisdom"

    What a beautiful expression:"The pathways of wisdom" I had to read and reread this sentence to understand the very meaning of it. Wisdom is not achieved easily.
