      In any given moment, we try to change the question we automatically ask ourselves: “What can this situation give me?” into a question: “What do I have to give in this situation?”.

      Focusing on the term to shift; meaning, for myself, is in the process of evolution and emergence towards becoming a spiritual creature.

      First the realization that in fact we don’t know how to love and give because we are made egoists by the Upper Force.  Then, by learning the pah of Kabbalah realize that “There is nothing else besides Him” and begin to consciously practice working on our bestowal above our ego to the friends but with the ultimate goal in our mind and heart to bestow to God through His Creature. And hence allow to all f us to adopt qualities of the Creator while building Adam.

      To makes corrections from egoistic, selfish perceptions to those of love and bestowal toward others. Basically, to truly love your neighbor as yourself.

      This requires a total shift in perceiving reality in general, what we feel is bad is not bad and what we feel is good is not good. Convincing yourself about this may be, it has gone take some time. Thank you.

      To be more selfless ..to think of others before a thought arises for oneself.
