If you love other people, if everybody is ok in your eyes, you’re filled with joy.

I want you to know, the Bal Shem Tov says, that when you’re filled with joy, you can meet your biggest enemy and love him.  Because you don’t care at all.  You say, “He hates me, but who cares.”

If you can still care if “This one hates me,” and “That one likes me,” then you’re obviously not filled with joy because otherwise you wouldn’t care.  ~ R’ Shlomo Carlebach zt”l
