โThe best political, social, and spiritual work we can do is to withdraw the projection of our shadow onto others.โ

The Skeptic's Kaddish ๐ฎ๐ฑ 
A great thing to strive for but not always easy as said here…..
Exactly.
Those shadows often block out all the light. (K)
Yep.
A great quote. An intelligent man.
To say the least!
A profound quote!
One of the best I’ve read.
… yes and – the older I get, the more I seem to be closer to the maxim: Don’t believe everything you think. Same thing? Not quite, but not far off either…
Indeed ๐
Woah… good thought. !!
I think so too ๐
David, brilliant quote! Not easy to put into practice, maybe. ๐ All the best!

As I get older, I realize this more and more. Itโs hard, since it can often be an automatic thing.
It’s really hard, A. But, somehow, for me, with age – it seems to be getting easier.
I’ve failed myself in so many ways
To enumerate them would me take days
But I would never judge you
For when all’s said and through
Nothing but my humility stays
All best,
David
This is so beautiful and true! ๐
Thank you for sharing it!

That’s a great quote David, how many problems would that solve!
I personally think it should apply to parental work (if that should be called work) also, but that could be only me ๐
definitely not only you, Deb!
Great!
Yeah, one of my best friends just shared that with me before Shabbat, and I had to post it on my blog. As soon as I read it, my exact reaction was –
Does Shabbat end at sundown?
a bit after sundown, technically, yes.
Ahaa! I didnโt think it could be Sunday in Jerusalem already. Or is it? ๐ค
๐ No, it isn’t. (despite our religious calendar, we still operate in real life, with the rest of the world, on the Gregorian calendar… although… in Israel, and in all Arab countries, the weekend is Fri-Sat.)
You see, the Jewish and Muslim calendars are lunar so the “day” starts when the sun sets, and every Muslim and Jewish holiday starts and ends at sunset.
Interesting!
Deep! Excellent quote. Thank you David
You know, Suzette, in all seriousness – you’re the one who inspired me to post the occasional quote!

Aww..thank you, David.๐
