Defining Desire - step 96

The Third Word
The key is to develop a burning , compelling desire. In Avos ch. 5 we learn " Run as a deer to fulfill the desire of your Father in Heaven.
What does this mean ? Can a person run as fast as a deer ?
The answer is a deer is completely focused on its goal to chase after food or to flee its enemy. It runs with a full , determined exclusive intensity which we can learn to develop & apply at our own pace.
Now may be a good time for a gem of Torah study.
