One of the greatest pleasures a person can feel is after doing teshuva, yet some lose that great feeling at some point and even go back to the past looking for answers. Rebbi Elimelech of Lezhenzk takes on the last part of the 40 days teshuva journey into the most difficult part--diligence. At first it may seem like it only has to do with Torah study, but we quickly realize its actually connected to everything. Prime example is what we see today-- a time where its hard to find anyone who's not discussing the war in Israel, yet its even harder to find anyone who's taking action. Many complain about the secular, zionist, fake religious people that cause so many problems for Am Yisrael, but few ask themselves the question of "what am I doing about it?" This is all connected and today we'll learn how. Learn, Share, Enjoy and Do TeShuva.
