Accepting the Unchangeable and Changing What We Can  -
A Torah Perspective

 

This Week of Learning will be a combination of self-study preparation with a partner, lectures and workshops.   Studies  will be focused on text and commentaries that will  reveal  the wisdom necessary to differentiate between the unchangeable in our lives and what we, in fact, can alter.  We will also discuss step-by-step guidelines on how to accept what we can't change, and change what we can.
