Today’s Hayom Yom – From my father’s sichot: It is a magnificent gift of G-d to merit an innate sense – a "feel" – for doing kindness to another, to derive deep pleasure from it. This can develop to the point that one cherishes the other more than oneself. He may find many explanations as to why he deserves his own tribulations, G-d forbid, but to do so with regard to another’s suffering – is absolutely impossible.
