Tiferes shebbe Chesed
The nature of tiferes, in terms of its expression as a middah (character trait), can best be designated as “harmony.” Therefore, one question for today could be construed as whether or not one’s acts of loving-kindness are performed in a way that denotes a harmonious balance to all concerned in the endeavor.
Moreover, in our own personality makeup, where is the harmony within that can promote feelings of kindness to others? Sincere kindness flows from a peaceful, harmonious place within ourselves. Are you able to envision your heartfelt acts of kindness bringing harmony to the lives of others? Or do you think of your kindnesses only as a small drop in the bucket?
Consider that the ripple effect of kindness may be greater than you can imagine.
