Just wanted to write about the importance of talking to hashem, when we come to realize that we need to finally surrender to hashem and allow him to guide us we suddenly find ourselves thinking about hashem more often then 3 times a day.

just like we had no problem obsessing over a woman a thousand times a day, we can start obsessing over hashem. Only he can help us.

All tzadikim set aside extra time(that they did not have)to talk to hashem either in a forest or secluded place were only you and hashem exist.

This is a step in showing hashem that we have surrendered and need HIM to help, not me fighting it.

How can we have resentment towards hashem, have we tried everything???

None of us has it all together, but together, we have it all.

we always put our sobriety before our ego -
