HH Mesilas Yisharim (Ramchal), Chapter 1.
והנה על העיקר הזה העירונו זכרונם לברכה במדרש קהלת (רבה, ז) שאמרו, זה לשונם: ראה את מעשה האלהים וגו' (קהלת ז), בשעה שברא הקדוש ברוך הוא את אדם הראשון, נטלו והחזירו על כל אילני גן עדן ואמר לו, ראה מעשי כמה נאים ומשובחים הן, וכל מה שבראתי בשבילך בראתי, תן דעתך שלא תקלקל ותחריב את עולמי.
Our sages roused us to this fundamental principle in Midrash Kohelet saying: "see the work of G-d." (Ecc. 7:13), "when the Holy One, Blessed be He, created Adam, He took him and led him to pass before all the trees of the Garden of Eden and said to him: 'see how beautiful and excellent are my works. All that I have created, I have created for your sake. Be careful that you do not become corrupt and destroy My world.'"
In our times we can see directly that our thoughts, speech, and actions directly effect and impact the world at large.
For a year now we have seen the insane falsehood rule the world, and BH there seems to be some visible hope that at least some of the perpetrators will be put on trial. Also with regard to the insanity of Biden, as I already posted this seems to be a delineation of how bad things are and where that bad is heading, providing and spurring a strong initiative to get things right, from the crazy education system where the masses are being indoctrinated from nursery through college in wokism etc. to the heinously corrupt judiciary system, finally these issues will be confronted and remedies will begin to be instituted.
Each person needs to fully appreciate their role in what is going on. Every pursuit of vanity gives power to the insane narrative which is ruling now in the world. Don't be a partner to that, don't give them power!
Focus - every heartfelt prayer and true Torah study blasts truth and rationality into the world. It is going to happen, and it is within our reach and power to make it happen even sooner.
Most important - Na NaCh NaChMa NaChMaN MAyUMaN

At one point I almost left Facebook, but I opened up Blossoms of the Spring to exactly where Saba writes: don't disconnect. So I stayed on, but B"H we moved the Nanach group out of whatsapp to Telegram. To join just go to Na-nach.org that puts you write in.
Facebook is gematria Rabbainu! So it's like Rabbainu stuck in Uman (where he forces brother Satan to throw up not only the holy souls but then some...). May we merit to bring the holy tomb to Jerusalem very soon - but first we need to open the airport in Uman....
Great blessings of Na Nach Nachma Nachman MayUman!
