Fate is hanging over your head; while you have life, while you may, become good. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------Talmud Bavli – Shabbos 153aRabbi Eliezer says: Do teshuvah one day before your death. Rabbi Eliezer’s students asked him: But does a person know the day he will die? He said to them: All the more so, one should do teshuvah today lest he die tomorrow, and thus, one will spend his entire life in teshuvah. And Shlomo also said in his wisdom: “At all times your clothes should be white, and oil shall not be absent from upon your head” (Koheles 9:8).---------------------------------------------------------------------------R’ Moshe Chaim Luzzatto – Introduction to Mesilas YesharimBasore translation of On the Shortness of Life (Seneca)Gummere translation of Seneca's Letters #101 (pp. 91-95) and #49 (pp. 215-219)---------------------------------------------------------------------------If you have questions, comments, or feedback, I would love to hear from you!
