One of the difficulties of the current Israeli society is the frayed personal bonds, scare, trauma and sheer exhaustion.
Now, what do one do in such a situation? One way to go is through psychological help, which, traditionally, is taking and supporting the rebuilding of your psyke. A good way, in many instances.
Also, let me point to prayer as a means to get better.
Prayer has many applications. Hashem supports us in many ways.
One way is to ask for guidance, what do I do now. What should be my actions. Often this gives you a sudden inspiration.
Then there is the healing aspect. Here rabbis are most often good and supportive. It’s a good thing to talk to a rabbi and ask for healing. A strong rabbi can heal you very fast.
In a way you could say that g-d was the original psychologist.
He will provide, and it does not cost you anything.
In such a situation patience and time is of essence. Families need to reconnect, mothers need to see their children.
In the end it’s all about community.
Make as many family gatherings as you can, eat have a party, enjoy life.
Some wounds are too deep to heal fast, let them heal slowly.
It’s ok, we are over the worst, and the future is solid.
G-d bless the will of the creator, may we have peace.
