Kushner


We got a belated Christmas newsletter Saturday from a friend in Atlanta. She sends them out only every five years or so. The letter was 12 pages long (with footnotes no less!), but as our friend pointed out, that's only 1.6666 pages per year. ... It is among the best 12 pages we've recently read. Among the many gems in it was this: Five things for a complete life by Rabbi Harold Kushner (contained in his new book, "Overcoming Life's Disappointments"): Family, friends, faith, work and the "satisfaction of making a difference." Note he doesn't say happy life, which we tend to confuse. It seems he means "complete" as in "content."
Thoughts?
