The full or empty cup
By zevi770 · June 12, 2013
We all know the famous half cup, optimist, pessimist, question.
But there is a far far more significant question!
When a person is happy, which of course, happiness leads to openness, love, giving etc. There is a problem; it’s the full cup problem, for whenever we feel our own self, we actually, like a full cup become incapable of adding more to it!
It is for this reason, that Kabbalah teaches, as perhaps the primary state man must feel, you must be almost filled to the top with joy over your blessings, but you must always leave room for more wisdom, more blessing! so at the same time, that we are joyous, we must also carry shame, shame over our past that was despicable!
