Gesher Tzar Meod
"We are indeed in trying times. We have always been. And so, I encourage us all to lean on those ever-relevant words of Rabbi Nachman of Bretslov: Kol ha’olam kulo gesher tzar me’od, veha’ikar lo le’fached klal, All the world is a very narrow bridge, and the most important thing is not to be overwhelmed by fear. These words speak a great truth. All the world is a very narrow bridge on which we pass from one thing to another. There is no stability. Each new place, new change, creates fear. That life is so very precarious, and so very precious. And the most important thing? Is not to be overwhelmed by fear."
​(Rabbi David Wolpe)

Yehi Shalom B'Heilech
Shalom, peace, wholeness, is the only Beracha that requires others to help you fully actualize this state of being. That you can only make the blessing of Shalom within the context of a Tzibur, an intentional community. Parnassa, Gezunt… livelihood, health… Chochmaat HaLev, wisdom and self-awarenss… you can ask for these as an individual. But Shalom, only as a Tzibur… 
​(From the Torah of Rabbi Shalom Katz)
