Two hits with one stone

Our soul/sole purpose is to work on God’s behalf, spreading Torah and Mitzvos, love and humaneness!
How this simple realignment of priorities causes personal and global redemption!
Why do we feel our lives are existentially in crises?
Why do we feel depressed, aimless, meaningless?
The answer is simple:
Life as we know it, is meaningless, aimless, hence depression.
If on the other hand, you had a purpose, a meaning, a cause greater than eating and sleeping – existing – you serve, than suddenly life becomes profoundly meaningful, profoundly gratifying!
Imagine you are driving but you have no destination – that’s how you are living now – but as soon as you set your destination, if it is a meaningful, soul based one, then of course, you transform every part of your life – not only when you reach your destination, rather every second becomes part of the destination!
In other words, your entire life becomes elevated, redeemed, and meaningful, hence your soul feels great joy!
If on the other hand, we have no greater purpose to our existence, then of course every part of the journey is seen as a drag, as if when you would be driving endlessly, feeling that even putting your foot on the gas is a useless waste of time.
But how does this also create global redemption, ah, that’s the point, that you need to share this message with everybody, you need to help people redeem themselves, for once all people are driving together, imagine the global joy!!!
