Hi,
"Two chassidim were carrying on a conversation.
"'How would you define what a chassid is?' one asked.
"'A chassid is someone who wishes to become a chassid,' the other answered.
"'Well, who would not wish to become a chassid?' the first asked.
"'Someone who thinks he already is a chassid,' the other answered.
"A chassid is a person who constantly strives for self-improvement and for greater spirituality. Although he knows one can never achieve perfection, he nevertheless aims to approach it as close as possible."
(Rabbi Dr. Avraham Twerski, Rebbes and Chassidim, chapter 40)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
