I read it years ago and it was meaningful but in the past few years I re-read it and something in me I thought would never get better broke open in an instant. Perhaps because now I'm almost eighty and, to my surprise, growth processes have quickened, taken me to places I couldn't have guessed. It was Rebbe Schneerson's notes on the yechida soul, a point of soul in contact with God, essence to essence. Something happened as I read it this time and a barrier gave way. That does not mean all is better and no problems and challenges exist. Far from it. But something is better, and the relief and opening is palpable.
