DAILY DOSE:
Wasting Life on Purpose
Once you have found the meaning of life,
will there be enough life left to live meaningfully?
Better to live life as meaningfully as you know how,
and find more meaning as you go along.
You will gain and so will those you influence.
A Daily Dose of Wisdom from the Rebbe
-words and condensation by Tzvi Freeman
GROWING EACH DAY:
Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski
Because God is in Heaven and you are on the earth,
therefore let your words be few (Ecclesiastes 5:1).
I remember reading that every person is born with an allotted number of words
that one may speak during one's lifetime. When this allotment is exhausted,
one's life comes to an end. This idea would explain the above verse: God is infinite,
but people live in a finite world where everything has its limitations.
Some things may be greater, other things may be less, but nothing on earth is infinite.
Since the number of words a person may speak must also be finite,
we should speak as little as possible simply to extend our lives.
Even if one does not accept this concept as factual, it is an excellent guideline.
People on a fixed income will budget themselves carefully, since any unwise
expenditures may deprive them of the means to obtain necessities.
If we think of our words as being limited, then those squandered in non-essential
conversation have become unavailable to us for more important things.
When we discover that we have wasted money, we are likely to become
very upset with ourselves. We usually then resolve to be more cautious
and discriminating in our future purchases. Let us now think back on how many words
we have wasted, and even if they were not outright lies or slander, nevertheless,
they were simply useless. We would be wise to make a reckoning of our words as well
as our money and similarly resolve not to be wasteful of them in the future.
Today I shall ...
.. consider my words as valuable assets which, while in sufficient supply,
are nonetheless limited; I will therefore try to act accordingly.
