Description

Avodah (spiritual work) of refining our feelings is a long process which must be done with gentleness. L'kvod Shabbos (for the honor of Shabbos) one can eat a larger piece of bread, but with refinement. A sensitive person will feel that it is not proper to speak on cell phones on buses. The body’s nature is “loudness" and the soul’s nature is a “still, small, voice.” If we want to build a true inner life, we must act calmly, move carefully, speak more slowly and think first.
