About this listen

 📖 Parshat Balak This Week: When Bilam's donkey suddenly stopped walking, he immediately assumed it was defying him personally. But the donkey saw angels blocking the path that Bilam couldn't see. 'You know me,' the donkey said, 'do you think I'd do this to you on purpose?' How often do we assume someone's behavior is a personal attack when they're responding to something we can't see? That child acting out, that coworker being difficult—maybe they're not trying to hurt us. Perhaps they're conveying something they're experiencing that we're unaware of. Before we take it personally, let's get curious: What might they be seeing that I'm not? What are they trying to tell me? Shabbat Shalom. 👁️
