Shalom -, Please enjoy today's Daily Inspiration from Israel.

It is better to go to a house of mourning than to a house of feasting; for that is the end of every mortal, and the living should take it to heart.
טוֹב לָלֶכֶת אֶל־בֵּית־אֵבֶל מִלֶּכֶת אֶל־בֵּית מִשְׁתֶּה בַּאֲשֶׁר הוּא סוֹף כׇּל־הָאָדָם וְהַחַי יִתֵּן אֶל־לִבּוֹ

Solomon's Surprising Advice for Life
By Shira Schechter
Last night I visited a young widow in my community who lost her husband after eighteen months of fighting cancer. He was always smiling. He always had a kind word. He was the kind of man who pushed everyone around him to grow, to reach a little higher than they thought they could. He touched so many lives that the line at his funeral stretched beyond the cemetery gates; a close friend of mine couldn't even get in.

I drove home afterward, and a verse surfaced in my mind. Not something I had been studying. Not something I consciously reached for. It simply appeared, the way the truest things do.

King Solomon — the wisest man who ever lived — wrote those words at the end of a long and extraordinary life. He had seen everything the world had to offer. And his advice was this: do not be afraid of the house of mourning. There is something waiting for you there that you cannot find anywhere else.
