The world outside us is a relfection

By zevi770 · November 27, 2015

Once there was a  bird – little bird why do you look so sad? – asked the majestic eagle – “I can find no rest” replied the bird – why? – “you see wherever I go it smells” – but that’s strange said the eagle I don’t have such a bad sense of smell and wherever I go it smells great – “I traveled to the north, to the south, to the east, to the west and wherever I go it smells like manure” – and with his eagle sight he looked at the little bird and laughed, why little bird you once dipped you beak to get a seed in manure and its still attached.

 

In life what we see is a reflection of what we want to see – the heart filled with love sees beauty and unfortunately the heart filled with hate, and as we know hate is born not only from being hurt but simply from being jealous (in other words, we all have an innate jealousy – in simple words, if you have something I think I am entitled to – Now jealousy creates a desire to take away from you what you have) this is why there is wanton evil, for example, the Arabs and other antisemites who are internally miserable – I was once going in an airport and I was with a friend and of-course we are proudly visibly Jewish, so this one guy comes by and says “Jews brrrr” now the truth is he was in a coat and he must have been feeling about himself brrr – but he was jealous that we felt warm.
