ON THE BACK BURNER

The Rabbis Shabbat remarks last night got me thinking. The Torah portion included the "Golden Rule". It is not do unto others, but love others .Maybe like others is a better word. He told of a story that he read in the newspaper about a burglar who became humanized when the people he was going to rob, asked him to have a glass of wine with them. I can see that happening. He drank the wine and left without hurting or stealing .I am thinking about trying this approach to my life. It'll be a hard sell for me to think kindly about some of our political representatives,but because I heard it in the Torah, I will try. (Silence here, I'm working on it) It's not working.
