The teaching
Moshe was doing everything himself. Every dispute, every question — morning to night, him alone. Yitro watched and said: this will break you.
In tai chi we call it song — relaxed power. Grip too tightly and you lose sensitivity. Your shoulder climbs. Your structure collapses.
Moshe listened. He appointed judges. He distributed the weight — and the whole system could finally stand.
Try this now: clench your fist. Hold it. Feel that effort. Now release. That exhale — that's song.
The teaching in Yitro isn't just about leadership. It's about knowing what you're not meant to carry alone.
