friends, family, followers, even the ones who feel closest, they’re beautiful connections, but none of them see you the way G-d already does.
Because the only truly intimate relationship you’ll ever have is the one between your soul and G-d. That bond existed before you were born and will remain forever. And it’s not built on belief alone, it’s built on how you live.
1. Awe keeps you honest.
2. Love keeps you generous.
3. Yearning keeps you growing.
4. Justice keeps you accountable.
5. Humility keeps you connected.
When those fade, it’s not that life becomes meaningless, it’s that you stop showing up for the most intimate relationship your soul was created to nurture.

The blog lists all the difference patterns to study, understanding patterns is how one can develop 'Daas' [felt knowing].
Update: As awe, trust, and love deepen, they can allow greater openness and intimacy with the Creator. That intimacy can include sadness when you notice how much more of His goodness can be revealed.
