In today’s Talmud page, Kiddushin 11, the Rabbis discuss the minimum amount of money that a woman should accept as the fee for betrothal. While this is a wonderful statement of respect for self-worth, Jewish texts are short on conversations about self-worth, and rather focus more on being humble, and doing for others, and not for ourselves. Rabbi Simcha Bunam tells a tale with the instructions that we should all have two notes in our pockets, one that says “For my sake was the world created”, and another “I am but dust and ashes.” What can we learn from these two notes?
