Liberal way vs. keeping tradition and Law re to oo

People are always moving, either left or right. The point of Orthodoxy is that it’s about following the Torah that Hashem gave us. Obviously, there are many paths that one can take within halacha. One might be more into learning, another praying, another into chesed. One sings while davening, while another says it quiently. One does college and also goes to shiurim and so on

When we practice, the intention should be that we are doing it to serve Hashem. When people start deciding to do their own thing

like the different liberal Jewish groups, they are straying from that intention, and rather serving themselves and their own desires.

We’re Not trying to put down people, they are fellow Jews too. It’s the ideology that is the problem. It’s understandable to want

to practice your own way. But there are many ways to follow Torah within halacha. We just need to remember our purpose, which is to serve Hashem.

It’s like when a woman tells her husband what she would like for a gift. He brings her power tools. She says, “I didn’t ask for this. I asked for a necklace.”

For a strong relationship, we should give the other what They want, not what We want.

It’s the same with food. There is healthy food, and not so good food like candy. We know what our body needs, fruits, vegetables, protein….

We sometimes though have a sweet tooth and we give in to our desire. A little in moderation is okay. But remember that chocolate and the cake is Not the substitute for actual healthy food that our body needs. The point of food is to keep our body healthy, and so we should choose the right food that does that.

So too, with our neshama, Hashem gives us instructions how to nourish our neshama and connect to our Creator, so our neshama can be healthy and we have a strong relationship with Hashem and each other.
