Bereshis: Conflict Resolution - Rabbi Eitiel Goldwicht

so the holidays are behind us and we're back to our regular daily schedule back to work back to school but with it it's sometimes a time period that's full of stress there's been certain relationships that we were happy that we didn't have to deal with over the last few days or weeks a co-worker that's hard to talk to a professor that's giving us a hard time how do we overcome the stress of going back to our regular routine to irregular conflicts in our life so we're starting a new safer we're starting from boracious from the beginning and i believe in it jewish wisdom teaches us that we're not really meant to run away from conflicts rather we were born and created into a life full of conflicts it says god created man it says it with two youths and the rabbis teach us that within ourselves we have conflicts we have a yates or tovan that yates around we sometimes we want to give to others but we also want to take for ourselves we want to do good but we also are selfish it's an inner conflict that we all have to deal with and then it says that a man gets married there's no bigger conflict than that we're living in a house with somebody else we have different opinions we have different ways of looking at life but we're meant to live a life that we sometimes run into certain opposing opinions because when we deal with it and we're able to approach it properly that is our opportunity for growth that's our opportunity for success so if you're going back to work back to school back to whatever it might be and you feel oh no i'm gonna deal with this stress again try to approach it in a new way try to look at it this is my opportunity for growth and with it we're going to have an amazing tremendous year shabbat shalom from jerusalem [Music]
