- “Leaf, why do you fall?” he asked. “The branch shook, and I could not hold on,” it whispered.
- “Branch, why did you shake?” “The tree swayed, and I moved with it.”
- “Tree, why did you sway?” “The wind pushed me,” it said.
- “Wind, why did you blow?” “The angel of the wind commanded me.”
- “Angel, why stir the wind?” “I act on Hashem’s command,” the angel replied.
- The Tzadik lifted his eyes to Hashem and asked, “Master of the world, why set all this in motion?”
- Hashem said, “Look beneath the leaf.” There, a tiny worm rested in the shade, safe from the sun.
- And the Tzadik understood: every breeze, every trembling branch, every falling leaf is part of a greater divine purpose. ”
