Description
Synopsis: In today’s episode I reflect on my 100th day of gratitude journaling! I focus on two of the many benefits I’ve gained from this practice: (1) a little something I call “premeditatio gratias,” and (2) a developmental tool for “amor fati,” inspired by an interpretation of a phrase in Modim by the Ri Bar Yakar and Rashi.This week's Torah content has been sponsored by an anonymous donor, whom I consider to be both a friend and a role model.Related Rabbi Schneeweiss Content:- The Gratitude Accountability Experiment (Aurelius – Meditations 9:6) Sources: - Seneca, Letters #81 and #91- Ri Bar Yakar on Modim- Rashi on Tehilim 60:6----------If you have questions, comments, or feedback, I would love to hear from you!
