Pouring Out Your Heart
When you are in emotional turmoil and distress, verbalizing your thoughts and feelings lets off steam.
One evening, Rabbi Levy is visited by a stranger. "Yes," says the rabbi, "can I help you?"
"Life is very hard for some," says the man. "I thought you should know about the problems facing one of your congregation."
"So tell me already," says the rabbi.
"Well," says the man, "your Mrs. Goldman owes a moneylender over $10,000 and she hasn't got the money to pay him back. She's being thrown out her house this week, she's too ill to work and she can't feed her children."
"It's a terrible life, indeed," says Rabbi Levy. "Thank you for letting me know. I'll raise some money from the synagogue straight away – I'll even donate $1000 of my own money. But tell me, my friend, are you a relative of Mrs. Goldman?"
"Don't be silly, rabbi," says the man, "I'm the moneylender."
