"Some think life is all about doing good and keeping away from evil.

To them, struggle has no purpose of its own—to have struggled is to have failed. Success, they imagine, is a sweet candy with no trace of bitterness.

They are wrong, tragically wrong. Struggle is an opportunity to reach the ultimate, when darkness itself becomes light. In the midst of struggle, an inner light is awakened. Light profound enough to overwhelm the darkness, encasing it and winning it over.

But if darkness never fights back, how will it ever be conquered?"

Dire Dawa is one of two chartered cities in Ethiopia . It is divided administratively into two woredas, the city proper and the non-urban woreda of Gurgura. According to the "Futuh Al Habasha: Conquest of Abyssinia", the area or settlement was only called Dir after the major Somali clan around 5 centuries ago.

“For me, my Rebbe (spiritual master) was the geologist of the soul. You see, there are so many treasurers in the earth. There is gold, there is silver, and there are diamonds. But if you don’t know where to dig, you’ll only find dirt and rocks and mud. The Rebbe can tell you where to dig, and what to dig for, but the digging you must do yourself.”

One who loves must learn fear. One who fears must learn love. The thinker must do. The doer must think. The pacifist must fight, the fighter must find peace. If you flow as a river, burn as a fire. If you burn as a furnace, flow as a river. If you fly as a bird, sit firm as a rock. If you sit firmly, then fly as a bird. Be a fire that flows. A rock that flies. Love with fear and fear with love. For we are not fire, not water, not air, not rocks, not thoughts, not deeds, not fear, not love. We are Godly beings."

ትዕግስት ማለት ምን ማለት ነው?
እሾህን አይቶ ጽጌረዳን ማየት፣ ሌሊትን አይቶ ጎህ ሲቀድ ማየት ማለት ነው። ትዕግስት ማጣት ደግሞ ውጤቱን ላለማየት አጭር እይታ ማለት ነው.

"Words that come from the heart enter the heart."

Jewish Proverb…

Moses fled from Egypt, eventually arriving in Midian. At the age of 77, he married Tziporah, daughter of the local chieftain, Jethro, and went to work shepherding Jethro’s flocks. Jethro had denounced idolatry, and was therefore ostracized by his people. In the meantime, the Jew’s slavery in Egypt had intensified further, so G‑d appeared to Moses on Mount Sinai, speaking to him from a bush that was burning but was miraculously not consumed.
Showing G‑d that We Care
[When he saw the burning bush,] Moses said, “Let me turn away and go over there to behold this remarkable sight.” Exodus 3:3
When Moses said these words, he was voicing the aspiration that is the foundation of any relationship with G‑d. This aspiration is what makes us human, i.e., beings that strive to rise above animal existence in search of intellectual depth and spiritual self-refinement.
This ambition enables us to focus our intellects in solitary meditation and climb the ladder of Divine consciousness. Whatever level of consciousness we achieve, we always aspire to ascend further. The force of this aspiration unlocks all our human potential, strengthening our intellect, emotions, and senses. We are constantly blessed with new insight and understanding, which in turn lead us toward a deeper relationship with G‑d.
Thus, as stated in the next verse, it was only after “G‑d saw that [Moses] had turned aside to look” that “He called to him from the midst of the bush.”

Each individual experiences life in two worlds. There is the outer world and there is the inner world. One is the realm of the effect while the other is the realm of the cause. When we surrender to the sensory impressions of the outer world, then life is in the realm of effect, and we continually find ourselves in situations and predicaments that feel beyond our control. However, if we live from the inside out, we then live as masters. The interior, inner world, is the essence and the cause of the outer
