The Sfat Emet, a late 19th c. Hasidic master talks about the relationship between a cistern (a rain barrel) and a wellspring.
He says as we fill up our respective rain barrels with things that nourish us, we open up a wellspring — an endless, flowing source of love and goodness, and we can draw from it and let it pass through us. In this way, we don’t use ourselves up — we learn to draw from something bigger than us and to utilize and harness that power.
