In this week's episode of Clearing the Mud, we are finally wrapping up the subject of fasting, yay!! Nowadays, we don't use fasting as a means to establish a stronger connection to Hashem. Instead, a common substitute is tzedakah, charity. Just as we wouldn't restrict how much we spend on our physical health, we shouldn’t limit the amount we invest in our spiritual well-being. While it is generally advised not to give more than twenty percent of our income to tzedakah, when it comes to teshuvah, our atonement, there is no limit.
