Description

No place is the world is void of Hashem. There are 2 types of closeness in this world: physical closeness, and "internal" closeness which doesn’t depend on space at all. Physically no one can be as close to us as G-d because He is everywhere and is always with us. We share internal closeness with G-d since we are considered children and friends of G-d. We need to actually feel this closeness not just to know it Once we feel this closeness we will serve G-d properly even if no one is watching or even if there are a million people around who aren’t serving Him properly.
