Description

Page 163. We can decide, at the beginning of the month, that we will give a small percentage of our wages to needy people so that our work is not totally for "taking", but also contains "giving". Do we look at life as a way of "giving" or "taking"? "Giving" is the language of the neshama (soul); "taking" is the language of the goof (body). At the end of every day, we should think if we were a "taker" or a "giver". We should reveal the quality of giving deep inside ourselves, believe that this is the purpose of our life, and rebuild our life from the view of "giving". Becoming bigger "givers" brings us closer to Moshiach.
