What is Kollel all About Anyways?
I know, the question itself is pure kefira. But that is something that crosses my mind countless times a day, when I am awake, at night trying to fall asleep, or during davening.
What is the goal of spending so many years in Kollel?
I am a 29 year old yungerman in Lakewood, having spent 7 years after my chassuna sitting and learning. My wife works like an animal to bring in parnossa, and the rest of our income comes from gifts, some support, and me doing odds and ends jobs here and there.
But this idyllic life is starting to unravel at the seams, as doubts are creeping in, slowly at first, but now they are intensifying like a crashing wave.
What is all this “staying in learning” for anyways?…..
I wish I knew the answer.
