The Chai Times // Silent Achievers
Mar 21, 2025 9:12 pm
When you look at a human being, you see their hands working, their feet walking, their mouth talking.
You don't see their heart, their brain, their lungs and kidneys. They work quietly, inside.
But they are the essential organs of life.
The world, too, has hands and feet - those who are making the news, moving things around, shaking things up.
The heart, the inner organs, they are those who work quietly from the inside, those unnoticed, those who do a simple act of kindness with no thought of reward.
- The Rebbe, adapted by Rabbi Tzvi Freeman
Wishing you an uplifting weekend,
Rabbi Mendy & Mussy
