The
Rizhiner Rebbe explained how in the midst of the plague of darkness
in Egypt, "All the children of Israel had light in their homes.
" [1]
"Each one
of us possesses a Holy Spark, but not everyone exhibits it to best
advantage. It is like a diamond, which cannot cast its luster if buried
in the earth. However when our Divine spark is disclosed in its appropriate
setting, after being suitably cut and polished, there is light, as
from a diamond, in each one of us."

Instead
of cursing the darkness, light a candle.
***
(Eleanor Roosevelt, American First Lady and Social Reformer)
