Last weekend, thousands of Chabad women emissaries from around the world gathered in New York for their annual conference, in conjunction with the yahrtzeit of Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka Schneerson, of righteous memory, wife of the Rebbe.
When the Rebbetzin passed away, on the 22nd of Shevat in 1988, the Rebbe spoke about her in glowing terms. She was modest yet effective, of vaunted lineage yet gracious to all people, serious yet witty, and most importantly, a partner in everything that her husband did.
The Rebbe encouraged us to learn from the Rebbetzin and emulate her ways. We should not be afraid of contradictions in our life, and we should certainly not allow our personal needs to get in the way of helping others and accomplishing great things.
May her memory continue to be a blessing for us and all of the Jewish nation.
Shabbat shalom.

Stay Put
When you come to a place that seems outside of G‑d’s realm, too coarse for light to enter, and you want to run away—
—know that there is no place outside of G‑d, not even this place, and rejoice in your task of uncovering Him there.
