Behind this piece: According to the Chasidic master Simcha Bunim of Peshischa, “Every person should have two pockets. In one pocket should be a piece of paper saying: ‘I am only dust and ashes.’ When one is feeling too proud, reach into this pocket and take out this paper and read it. In the other pocket, should be a piece of paper saying: ‘For my sake was the world created.’ When one is feeling disheartened and lowly, reach into this pocket and take this paper out and read it.This year has reminded us that our plans are flimsy, temporary, and fleeting. And year ,sitting with that piece of paper alone can lead to despair, which is why we have another pocket.In that other pocket is where many of us heard another call. A call to action. To feel that indeed, just as we are but dust and ash, the world was created for us and we can create the world we want to see.May this year bless us an ability to make real teshuva, not as it’s traditionally known as “repentance,” but in the lesser known teaching of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov, who teaches that yeshiva is delaying our readiness to exist.May we fully exist in both worlds, knowing all of our power, and also knowing that we are but dust.G’mar Chatimah Tovah, May you be sealed in the Book of Life.
