What is more satisfying, food when you are hungry or drink when you are thirsty? The answer is always the same. Thirst quenching water when the throat is parched and the body feels dehydrated, has the effect of reaching every centimeter of a person&#8217;s being. The sensation of thirst being quenched feels like receiving a new lease on life. From a flower that is shriveling and dying to instant bloom, color, and vitality. This was my intention when composing this song. It is not simply that we want a connection to Hashem. It is that when we are disconnected, our very soul feels as if it is dying. A beautiful word of torah, davening a thoughtful Sh&#8217;mona Esrei, engaging in a Mitzva, doesn\u2019t merely feel good and satisfying. Rather, it feels like life itself is coursing through our temporary existence, and powering it forward to live with eternal meaning and purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wishing everyone a meaningful Elul!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Benzion Klatzko<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Davka Nafshi - The Dveykus Song - Luzy Klatzko | Composed by Benzion Klatzko | \u05d3\u05d1\u05e7\u05d4 \u05e0\u05e4\u05e9\u05d9\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CNzr68qS7rs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Davka Nafshi<br \/>Performed by Luzy Klatzko<br \/>Video piano and violin Azarya Klatzko<br \/>Composed by Rabbi Benzion Klatzko<br \/>Arranged by Yisroel Ament<br \/>Video Shot, Edited, and Produced by Dovid Friedman<br \/>A Shabbat.com Production<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shabbat.com is the world\u2019s largest Jewish social network, an organization consisting of a global social media platform and app that assists people to find places for Shabbos, Shidduchim, Jobs, and Chevrusas.
