Trying to work out with our kids on how to approach their lives and what they need to “do good” to themselves and to the world ie to be true to themselves and in so doing do Tikun Olam (repair of the world) in their chosen work. The wall represents the goal, the ball is the tool or skill needed to get there, and the shadow from the ball to the wall represents the pathway that they have to take in order to achieve the goal (Some shadows along the way try to deviate one from the goal – avoid distractions!) Next step is the vehicle ie their natural abilities (skill sets) Identifying or recognizing this aspect is the hardest part of the whole thing If all the elements are wisely chosen, and one “keeps the eye on the prize”, self realisation and personal happiness is guaranteed – money back if not satisfied

HUMBLED BY THE BUBBLE
I looked at the tiny bubble
And saw my even tinier reflection
“I am far bigger than that!”
And the bubble replied
“Not in my eyes!”

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
Silence is a true friend who never betrays.
