Hi,
"So speaks Gd: A wise person shall not honor himself for his wisdom, and a powerful person shall not honor himself for his power, a wealthy person shall not honor himself for his wealth.
"Rather, for this an honored person should honor himself: Take insight and know Me, for I am Gd, who performs kindness and justice in the land. These are the elements I desire; this is the word of Gd."
(Jeremiah 9:22-23, the last verses of the Haftorah for Tisha b'Av morning)
I hope you fasted well,
Mordechai
