This indeed is beautiful Your pinpoint wisdom lightens me up from inside. I am Japanese convert trying to convert in Israel. Since I decided to proceed Kosher conversion in Israel, it has been 5 years during which I had once hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital, and I am still here in Japan, unemplyed. But during this 5 years, thanks to Chabad Lubavitch, I have received great Torah and self-refinement teachings, just like this teaching. Thank you, Rabbi, I will enddure this Oye, because the day I immerse my body and soul in Mikvah at the end of conversion process in Israel, I would like to say, "Ah, this indeed is beautiful." Reply
