Laugh, be inspired... and tap into your vast human potential. Good humor has the uncanny ability to break down barriers. This collection of over fifty essays by master educator Yehoshua Kurland is a unique combination of laughter and lessons, of humor and heartfelt advice. These easy-to-read essays cover topics such as change, freedom, peace, inner struggle, and our relationships with others and with God. For anyone interested in personal growth, this self-help book offers an invaluable opportunity. The chosen format that combines a humorous story with an insightful lesson is one that helps to open our minds and hearts and leads us to contemplate our course in life -- to actualise the vast potential possessed by every human being. It is often difficult to penetrate our hearts or to touch our souls, given the many protective walls we build.

A light matter, a bit of laughter, a smile brought to one's lips - can lead to an important lesson for eternity.

Reviews

Our sages teach us that a shiur should begin with a joke. Doing so will get the students into a good mood, and the message will be better received. And so it is with A Bit of Wit, A World of Wisdom (Volume 2). The book is a delightful compilation of mussar and self-help messages that all begin with a joke or funny story. - Rabbi Ari Enkin, Torah Book Reviews blog
