A great Jewish Sage, Rabbi Tarfon, summarized the Jewish view of life in a famous and evocative aphorism: "The day is short, the job is huge, and the workers are lazy; the pay is great and the Master is pressing." We have a huge job to do--elevating and rectifying ourselves AND the world--and the instructions to get it done (our Torah and its commandments), and Hashem wants us to do as much as we can (no more, but no less). And we get a tremendous reward for our work...more specifically, for our EFFORT!!! Time is short, and we tend to err on the lazy side for various reasons (myself included). Tune in to this episode as I discuss. Get busy, do your best...don't freak out. (Those are my words, not Rabbi Tarfon's!)
