I like debates about morals for some reason. Probably because my favourite fictional character's stories usually revolve around his morel compass: "should I kill this man?", "Should I leave him to die?", "why can't I bring myself to do this?!". Those types of stories always get my brain going, debating what is right and what is wrong, should morals apply when dealing with hard boiled criminals, can horrible criminals change, yada yada. These always make me rethink my personal morals and think of other's perspective on morals, the subjectivity of it is just so damn complex and requires a certain level of higher thinking to fully grasp it. IDK, I like feeling smart IG.

“You might eat just to fill an empty stomach.

  But you could also eat in order to derive energy from the nutrients of your food, 

and then channel that energy into fulfilling your divine mission in life.  “

-- The Arizal

“Similarly, you might do business just to accumulate wealth.

 But you could do the same business using a percentage of your profits for charitable purposes.

 The business itself could be a vehicle for good,”

-- The Arizal

The Ari, or Arizal, (1534-1572) was a Jewish mystic and author of some of the most influential works of Kabbalah. 

In 1492, the Jews were expelled from Spain. Some went West to discover the Americas, yet the bulk went East to Turkey, and it was in the beginning of the sixteenth century that a number of these Jews settled in the city of Safed. For an eighty year period there was a renaissance of Jewish life and activity in this mystical city. 

The city’s other mystics were no less famous. Rabbi Moses Cordevero, known as the Ramak, wrote a monumental Kabbalistic work called Pardes Rimonim. However, the most famous Kabbalist of the day was Rabbi Isaac Luria (1534-1572), universally known as the Arizal, an acronym for “The G‑dly Rabbi Isaac of Blessed Memory.”
