When you ignore your soul's destiny, when you get caught up in
your own self-interests and forget to care for others, you will not
feel "right." Instead, you will feel empty and unfulfilled.
During these times, you are neglecting your soul--
you are depriving it of nourishment. . . .
seek something outside your nine-to-five job as an additional source
of fulfillment and as a way to feel the joy of helping others. You can do
any number of things to fulfill this goal--volunteer at a community
hotline, coach a Little League team, donate your time to a public school,
visit the sick. Whatever you choose, you will gain a sense that you
are giving of yourself, that you are sharing yourself
with the world, that you are fulfilling the destiny of your soul.
Rabbi Harold Kushner
