That’s all folks. It’s day 30, the final lesson in the series. So can I ask you. What’s your SQ?
If you’re reading this, hopefully you’ve already watched the whole Volume 3 of Clean Speech Colorado | Oseh Shalom, Words of Peace. And you’ve already watched your world become a much more peaceful place to be. For you, for your family, your friends, your coworkers, your whole community.
You’ve developed a shalom personality. You’ve become a person who appreciates the benefits and pleasures of a peaceful life, and who actively pursues shalom throughout the day.
“Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its paths are peace.”
When we finish reading from the Torah and put it back in the arc, we always say this verse from Proverbs. It reminds us that the whole goal of the Torah is to lead us to shalom. The paths of Torah are peace. The more Torah you study, the more peaceful your life will be.
Along with the verse, we often add another quote, from the Talmud, which says, “Torah scholars increase peace in the world.”
You might not be able to increase your IQ, but your SQ just keeps going up and up the more you learn.
So don’t stop now. There’s no limit to how high your SQ can be. The only question is, what will your next step be?
