„One whose soul is a poetic soul must know his own nature, his particular yearnings and desires, the disposition of his soul, and the spiritual nourishment particular to him, required to sustain his spiritual vitality like air for breathing.”From Orot HaKodesh, III, p. 215
A person to whom the gift of creativity has been given must know himself and his own traits in order to develop his powers. He must develop in those things in which he is good; it is not for nothing that he received this wondrous gift from the Holy One.
We must use the powers given to us by the Holy One and rejoice in them.

Shabbat Shalom and a good new month.
In memory of Michael ben Mazal Tov.
