You Gotta Have Some Fun

Dear Friends, Parties sure are great... If only I didn't have to have that low-down feeling the next morning. Man, last night I got so smashed... Ugh, my head is killing me now, and I can't even look at food! That girl/guy is so hot... How come I never feel good after I indulge my impulses? I just made the biggest business deal of my life -- that guy never knew what hit him... So why does my victory feel so hollow? How do I get that amazing feeling of experiencing the best that life has to offer, without ending up feeling like I sold a bit of my heart or Soul in the process? Attached please find this weeks Shu-Shine for the Torah portion of 'Toldot': "You Gotta Have Some Fun" May we all be blessed to learn to enjoy life to the maximum, with the understanding that the maximum pleasure is the level of pleasure that doesn't let me down when it is over.  And may we be blessed to see the good in all people and the world around us, even when it is not so obvious to everyone else.
