Is life supposed to be easy, or were we born for battle?
In this empowering session, Rav Shlomo Katz reframes our existence based on the Heichal HaBracha (Komarna Rebbe). We learn that "When you go out to war" hints at the moment a soul leaves the womb—we are born directly into a battlefield, and that is exactly where we are meant to be.
Rav Shlomo challenges the depressing notion that struggle is a sign of failure. Instead, we discover that we are soldiers in Hashem's elite unit, and the constant friction of life is the friction of holiness being revealed.
This episode is a pep talk for the weary soul, reminding us that being at war doesn't mean you are losing; it means you are alive and in the game.
