EmesIsTruth – Well said!
– You said what the obstacles are like to going, internal thoughts and fears, external pressures etc. People putting others off (like in the Rebbe’s story “The Rabbi’s Son”).
– Like you said if people just wanted to get away from home, they could find a lot nicer places to go that to a small town in the middle of the Ukraine.
– To go and come away with a taste of true Yiddshkeit and Emunah, its worth all the problems and struggles to get there.
