Once wrote about it before (maybe one of my previous s/n)
Davening, Tefilah is all about connection. ???”? ????? ?????? ?? ??????, He is awaiting their (our) connection. Sometimes towards that goal, He send us some incentive, r”l a mishap, misfortune, discomfort r”l to be able to Daven to Him sincerely and devotedly.
But a truly wise person sees it merely as an incentive, after the crisis r”l or other issue has passed, he/she keeps up that measure of sincerity, devotion, attachment.
