The day began with a long to-do list: to buy a suit, to go to a dentist appointment, to pick up my children from gan, and to do a little shopping on the way home. In reality, however, nothing went according to plan. After half an hour of trying on suits in the store, I left empty-handed. At the dentist there was a serious delay, which caused me to miss picking up the children from gan. To top it off, when I went out to buy what I needed, as I was paying I discovered that I did not have enough money.
In the past I would have come home from such a day feeling miserable, and I would have labeled it a “black,” frustrating day. But in the zechus of listening constantly to the wonderful shiurim on the Hashgachah Pratis phone line, something fundamental shifted within me. I came home relaxed and in excellent spirits, with the simple knowledge that I had done my hishtadlus and that whatever I did not accomplish was just not meant to happen today. Thank you for the amazing content that simply transforms a person!
