When You Want to Fix Someone You LoveBS'DThere’s a certain kind of discomfort that comes up when you see someone you love making choices you wouldn’t make. It’s not always dramatic… sometimes it’s subtle. A direction, a response, a way of handling something—and inside, there’s this quiet pull to step in, to guide, to correct.I’ve felt that more than once.But over time, I’ve been learning that not every situation is asking to be fixed. There’s a pasuk that keeps coming back to me: “ה׳ יגמור בעדי (Hashem yigmor ba’adi)” — “Hashem will complete what is meant for me” (Tehillim 138:8). Each person is being led, shaped, and developed in their own way, by Hashem Himself.And alongside that, Chazal teach that a person only truly receives what they are ready to receive. Growth cannot be forced from the outside—it unfolds from within, in its own time.When I remember that, I soften a little. I don’t lose my care or my concern… but I release the urgency to control the outcome. And in that space, something more peaceful takes its place.Wishing you an emuna-filled day.
