This is what I tried to explain to him last night. Every time you take in something negative, it hurts you. Whether it happens by design; choosing to read, or watch, or participate in discouraging things, or if it comes in passively due to the people, or conditions, that surround you. Of course, I have an ulterior motive for wanting him to live next door....of course, but that doesn’t change the simple truth: That moving out of that building, and into a healthy environment would must be a powerful positive change for his life. This I must leave to G-d, it is in His hands.
On my end I try to do one positive thing to change my environment each day. I wash dishes, or vacuum, or clean out one box. I often feel incapable, inadequate, and overwhelmed. Especially in this neat and tidy, functioning world. But I do one small thing. I am hoping this too will grow.
