Another year has to be for something — as Rabbi Landau teaches it

By Rabbi Shalom Landau.

Rabbi Landau teaches that we ask for more time. Rabbi Landau teaches that another year only means something if there is still something to build, someone to help, or someone we are still becoming. Before asking for another year, ask what another year of you would be for. Pressure, he also teaches, strips away what was unnecessary and shows who matters. The day is short and the work is plenty. The lack may not be priorities. It may be forgetting that time is real.
