Day 7: Malchut within Chesed, Leadership within Lovingkindness
Today, my four-year-old and I talked about leadership. She was very excited to tell me that she sometimes gets to be the line leader at preschool. It's the line leader's job to walk in front of everyone to lead the way to their next activity.
"Should you run far ahead of everyone when you're the line leader?" I asked.
"No!" she cried indignantly. She then patiently explained that line leaders have to stay with the class, so everyone knows where to go. The line leader sets an appropriate pace for the line, so that the whole class doesn't go running away from the teacher.
Leaders who lead with kindness, who don't leave others behind and respect others, are the embodiment of malchut within chesed.
