The Light of Love

When you look at the world in the light of Chanukah, you realize that the world is completely unnecessary. That you're unnecessary. That everything is unnecessary. And yet the world is here and you are here. Celebrating the unnecessary is really the celebration of love. Because the ultimate expression of love and kindness is not in doing what I have to do, but in doing what I don't have to do.

Judaism believes that we are here by the grace of G-d because G-d — out of His infinite love — created us. It is a miracle that we are here and at Chanukah, more than at any time of the year, we see that and we marvel. We see ourselves in the light of miracle, in the light of miracle and hope.

In the light of Chanukah we see that everything is a miracle and only love is real. Anything is possible — so never lose hope.

Read the rest... and remember:

"There are two ways of looking at the world — either you see nothing as a miracle or you see everything as a miracle." -- Albert Einstein

Happy Chanukah!
