What is the secret to true happiness? Is it simply a matter of having positive experiences while avoiding pain? If that were the case, why do we see people who have endured immense suffering radiate joy, while others, blessed with easier lives, remain bitter and despondent?
Real happiness is not about escaping hardship or pretending challenges don’t exist. It’s not frivolous joy or denial. True joy emerges not despite pain, but alongside it. So how do we cultivate a happiness that remains steady even through setbacks, losses, and tragedies?
Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson and explore the profound balance of embracing life’s struggles while discovering deep, unwavering joy. With all the madness going on around the world, today more than ever we are all in need of this powerful discussion.
