One of the ugliest traits a person can have is forgetfulness. A lack of hakarat hatov, of gratitude. The Torah describes Pharaoh as someone who “did not remember Yosef,” and that forgetfulness shaped everything that followed. This teaching was deeply loved by my Zaidy, Marvin Moshe Yaakov Shmuel Mordechai ben Chana VTzudek, of blessed memory. May these words be l’ilui nishmat his neshama.

Real humility is remembering who helped you, who protected you, who showed up for you — even in the smallest ways. Gratitude makes a person beautiful. May we never forget.

If you want to understand Jewish “power,” look at who Jews are taught to admire. Our model is Moshe Rabbeinu, a man who left comfort, noticed suffering, and placed other people’s God forbid, pain into his heart. He was chosen to lead because he cared for the vulnerable, even when no one was watching. That’s the system. Shabbat Shalom.

This is a PSA for people who don’t like winter. If you’re dressed for it, being outside is a real mechayah. The Torah begins with Bereishit, with beginnings. Reb Shlomo used to say that if you want to feel a beginning, spend time in nature. Look at the sky, feel the air, stand on the earth the way HaShem made it. Don’t let the weather decide for you. Being outside is a gift.
