I think to my childhood when I longed to make a difference, how I dreamt of being able to help people – but sad to say but true, now that I am in a position to be of benefit I think I am a “shmo,” for instead of feeling elated by this blessing, instead of as the Baal Shem Tov taught to eagerly await, maybe God will send me someone today whom I can help, I prefer my solitude
