Just being created already means disconnect.
Why does being created feel like disconnection?
Why?
Because to be “something” (yesh) is to feel apart from G-d. It’s built into existence. That’s why our soul yearns for connection. The deepest missing is… missing G-d.
What is the paradox behind feeling far from G-d?
But here’s the paradox:
If we were fully united, we’d vanish. No choice. No love. No awe.
So the “distance” isn’t punishment. It’s the space that makes closeness possible. And that longing? It’s not random.
Does longing for G-d mean something is wrong with me?
Your longing/pain isn’t failure. It’s proof you’re alive. It’s the very fuel of connection. Because even our pain is part of the process, the way G-d’s unconditional love finds expression in a world that feels far from Him.
The “missing G-d” is what pushes us to seek Him endlessly, through study, commandments, repentance, and especially through awe and humility.
