Noticing blessings is a profound spiritual practice that can be an antidote to despair. In even the darkest night, a pinprick of light illuminates. Upon waking, one’s attention may be called to all the aches and pain; notice what’s not hurting. When you lose someone special, call to mind all that you learned from her. This is a practice & it serves us well in times of struggle. Rebbe Nachman teaches “find a little bit of good.”

WOW!!!! This understanding is so important for approaching and engaging daily life from a practical perspective! People need to wake up to the fact that what they get out of life is largely a product of what they expect to receive.
