WHAT RECESSION? ANCIENT WISDOM MEETS MODERN RESILIENCE

Despite the looming shadows of recessions, societal disruptions, and natural challenges, human spirit, resilience, and innovation shine through, much like the beacon of Moshiach's imminence, illuminating even the darkest corners.

In a recent article from The Washington Post, penned by Abha Bhattarai, we are introduced to a fascinating story of unexpected economic resilience: "What recession? This summer’s economy is defying the odds." At the heart of this narrative is Bob Basu, a Houston plastic surgeon who, much to his surprise, finds his business booming amidst circumstances that would traditionally predict a downturn.


"We anticipated things would cool this year... But I am happy to report I was incorrect: Demand just keeps growing," shares Basu.


The teachings of our ancient sages remind us that life's true prosperity is not solely about the tangible, monetary gains but is profoundly influenced by our perception, resilience, and spiritual fortitude. In the Talmud, Rabbi Ben Zoma says, "Who is rich? He who is satisfied with his lot." Isn't it something that in a time when many brace for the worst, some, like Basu, find opportunities and even abundance?


Imagine Sarah, a modern-day teacher, who instead of lamenting over the shift to online teaching, embarks on creating an online course that touches thousands more than her traditional classroom ever could. Or David, a musician whose concerts were canceled, but who then began virtual shows, finding fans in corners of the world he'd never even heard of.


The present situation calls to mind a phrase from our scriptures, "And though the vision tarries, wait for it; for it will surely come, it will not delay." Our current age, with all its unpredictability, is perhaps an embodiment of this very teaching. Despite the looming shadows of recessions, societal disruptions, and natural challenges, human spirit, resilience, and innovation shine through, much like the beacon of Moshiach's imminence, illuminating even the darkest corners.


So, as we marvel at tales of unexpected prosperity and growth, let's remember the enduring wisdom of our ancestors. In a world that's in perpetual flux, our ability to find contentment, to innovate, and to see opportunity is where true wealth lies. As we inch closer to the era of Moshiach, let's draw from these tales of hope and resilience, and infuse our lives with that same spirit of positive expectation and unwavering faith.
