Not Becoming Desensitized to the Eis Tzara - Rav Twersky

10/20/2023

Similarly, one can mostly go about his routine while identifying with the eis tzara in Israel, or r"l because he is becoming detached from it. - We must not slip into a mode in which we've acclimated to the eis tzara and our sense of it fades. If we feel ourselves becoming desensitized, we have to take concrete steps to reengage. We must sustain our level of concern as long as the eis tzara is ongoing.
