I usually invest time thinking about these weekly essays that I write before actually writing them. It is not always easy to come up with a subject that really interests me and if it does not interest me, I do not expect that it will interest any of my readers. Just a few days ago when I was preparing to go to sleep for the night a brilliant idea struck me as to an essay that I thought would resonate with everyone. I not only thought of the idea, but in my mind, I already blocked out the form of the essay and I even was able to connect it to a statement in the Talmud that would give it legitimacy and content. I went to sleep that night quite contented, certain that in the morning when I began my writing, the essay would develop easily and in a meaningful fashion.
