We were sent the above image from a friend in Chicago, who wrote the following about it: “We are connected by tubes of non-material love. Loving the other not only becomes important, it is in style! The bond between the friends grows and reinforces every particular part. As self-love becomes tired and phased out, the new system reaches out to every heart.”
Here are some materials to inspire this exit from self-love and the entry into love for others:
* The Story of Cogwheels – an article for kids in the 14th issue of Kabbalah Today.
* Love, Deciphered – an article explaining that true love can only be infinite.
* Love Is the Way – an article tracing the founding of the method for attaining everlasting love.

Our modern idea of freedom is embedded in remoteness, individualism and isolation. The true idea of what freedom means has been inverted and long forgotten. Here are three sources of information on what true freedom is and how it can be attained in our world today.
1. Video: The Freedom Prison
In this excerpt from a morning lesson Rav Michael Laitman, PhD provides a definition of freedom that is completely opposite to society’s idea of freedom, but is more natural than anything else.
