Bare Bitachon

So this is an experiment of sorts.

Something really for me, but I think there's value in sharing it.

People talk about having bitachon all the time, but it's often too vague and ambiguous. Or they share one good story to anchor you, but the rest of your life...you're not sure how bitachon fits in.

What I want to do is document my daily bitachon moments.

The times I call upon it. The times I fail myself. The times, it saves me. The times it comes easily, and the times, I'm pounding, howling, scratching at a door begging for it to open.

Obviously - some details will be changed for privacy.

This is not a vulnerability freak show - just space to document parts of my life.

My hope is to have a long log so when I'm struggling and feeling low, I'll be able to refer to it and see Hashem in my life in so many large and small ways, and that whatever I'm experiencing then, I can still ground myself in the bitachon I've been building.

As for you - the reader. I hope you find it edifying to see all the ways in bitachon beats show up in our lives, and how to make our lives centered around our recognition of Hashem and our relationship to Him.
