Thank you, Rabbi Ari Shishler, for this excellent lesson.
It was really perfect for me to listen to and learn today. I am becoming more aware of the discipline of bringing Holiness into our every day experiences while not feeling down if I am feeling low. There is no contradiction. The cloud passes, yet then is the time to go to work, and we are still walking in the light with Hashem. It is emotionally liberating not to be controlled my our emotions in this way. The goal is, or that I am responsible for bringing Holiness into my space, moreover to bring it out to the open among the world.
I enjoy your studies and lessons and thank you, very much.
Good Shabbos to you!

If you believe the Torah is boring, why teach. Who are you to move verses of Torah? Who are you to say: what is possible? HaShem is beyond our comprehension. Definition of religious? Holiness? Faith? Are we commanded to answer these questions? Is this idea popularity contest majority rules? Does truth have precedent over the majority.
