Listen "What Does It Take to Be Happy?"
Episode Synopsis
We all want happiness — but what does it actually take? In this episode, we explore a surprising insight from one of the Torah’s greatest commentators, Rashi, who says something almost impossible to imagine:Sarah’s entire life was “equally good.”All the years of her life — from childhood to old age — were equally filled with goodness.But wait… how can that be true?Sarah faced challenges that would break most people — being taken captive twice, decades of infertility, uncertainty, wandering, and pain. So what does Rashi mean? And what does it teach us about happiness?The mystery of Sarah’s happiness: How Rashi can claim her life was “all good” despite so many hardships.The difference between a happy life and a comfortable life — and why they aren’t the same thing.Sarah’s inner approach that made her joy steady and not dependent on circumstances.If you liked this episode, you'll love my book Living Beautifully - available on Amazon
