Successful Relationships (5:52)
To succeed in a relationship, one must recognize that each individual party is critical to the relationship’s overall success. In addition, everyone has their own perspective, and everyone’s opinion must be taken into account. Also, one must also be able to apologize and put away their ego, as that is one of the most destructive things in any relationship.

Were the do’s and don’t’s of our daily prayers given at Sinai, or did they evolve throughout the ages?.
