Crossing the Narrow Bridge

From the book, "Crossing the Narrow Bridge" by Chaim Krammer

...Rabbi Nachman teaches us that eating excessively give strength to the body while at the same time weakens the soul. (Likutei Moharan II,8:1)

Many of us have observed that when we are involved in compulsive overeating we become numbed and are unable to make correct life choices.    The title of this book is a good description of how I feel about my life now- I do not want to stray from the path that I have chosen.
