If a person looks at the features of this world, he will quickly see that HASHEM invested great wisdom and care in making man’s stay on the planet enjoyable. From the different foods —each one with its unique flavor, aroma, and texture — to the colors of flowers to magnificent seascapes, so much of the beauty of this world was not necessary. It is clear that HASHEM put much thought into creating a world that man can enjoy. The question is, Do we really enjoy it? This Shmuz focuses on the Torah’s attitude towards enjoying the pleasures of this world. (This may come as a surprise to some people.)
