Thought of the day.........
Rabbi Meir of Premishlan lived at the foot of a very steep hill.
Each day, even in the ice of winter, he would hike over the hill to immerse and purify himself in a stream on the other side.
The people who knew of this considered this quite wondrous; they could only walk around the hill as they were scared of falling on the ice.
One day, a few young men followed the Rebbi up the hilltop as he effortlessly ascended the hill once again.
All of them fell down and were badly hurt.
What was Rabbi Meir's secret?
"When you are connected to above, he explained,
You do not fall down."
(Bringing Heaven down to Earth page 129)
