Welcome, dear friends. Today, we delve into a profound teaching of the Rambam: “One should always strive to be in the middle path.” In our daily lives, we often find ourselves caught between opposing forces—be it in our emotions, opinions, or actions. The Rambam emphasizes the significance of balance and moderation. When faced with challenges, it’s easy to oscillate between anxiety and apathy. Instead, we should aspire to respond with a steady, composed demeanor. This middle path allows us to discover our authentic selves amid life’s tumult.
