Mussar: What are Your Passover Attitudes?

originally posted on April 19, 2014

Passover message from the moderator of Derech Emet:

G_d gave us Passover so we could thank Him and praise Him; not so we could complain.

On Passover we must all be diligent to think of the many positive aspects of the holiday, and to not fall into the trap of complaining.

[EG] Your actions and attitudes are noticed and remembered by your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
 
How to you want them to think about you?

Chanah always complains about Passover cooking.
