Daily Thought
Esau said, “I have a lot.” Jacob said, “I have all.” As in “all I need.” Esau had a family of six. They were called “six souls.” Plural. Jacob had a family of seventy. They were called “seventy soul.” Singular. Esau lived in a granular, tossed-together, fragmented world in which he collected a lot of things and many people. A noisy world. Jacob lived in a universe, a singular whole, in which all he encountered was only another manifestation of an essential oneness. Wherever he was, he had everything. And you? Do you have many things? Or do you have much light? Maamar Hechaltzu 5659, chapter 3.

About
Chabad-Lubavitch is a philosophy, a movement, and an organization. It is considered to be the most dynamic force in Jewish life today. The word "Chabad" is a Hebrew acronym for the three intellectual faculties of: chachmah-wisdom, binah-comprehension and da'at-knowledge. The movement's system of Jewish religious philosophy, the deepest dimension of G‑d's Torah, teaches understanding and recognition of the Creator, the role and purpose of Creation, and the importance and unique mission of each Creature. Today 4,000 full-time emissary families direct more than 3,300 institutions. Motivated by his profound love for every Jew and spurred by his boundless optimism and self-sacrifice, the Rebbe set into motion a dazzling array of programs, services and institutions to serve every Jew.
