Relief

Talmud tells a quaint story pdf the son of Rav Mari who was being harassed by members of his family.  The young man fell on his father's grave crying, "Father, father, they are causing me distress!" -Taanit 23b


When a person is in pain they will turn anywhere to get relief.  We have had the same experience.  What would you do if you knew you are the cause of such distress?

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
