Brenn Books
A chassidic Rebbe was once asked: "If you could save one thing from your burning home, what would it be?"
"The fire," answered the Rebbe, "because it is the 'brenn' [the fire, the passion] which makes life worth living.
Indeed, without an inner fire burning in the soul of man, there is no real life. Life becomes meaningful only when man
"burns from within" for his ideals and his determination in life.
