Description

Page 162. Giving is the root of building, while taking is the root of destruction. Are we ready to devote our life to giving, or will we surrender to our material side and be a taker? One must still live to a certain extent as a taker. This world is a "narrow bridge" where we are constantly evaluating when we should be taking or giving. We must try to incorporate giving into our daily lives. Story of Reb Areya Levine making a street cleaner happy. The Sadigurer Rebbe swept the street in Tel Aviv early in the morning.
