Today many people want to move to Eretz Yisrael yet have elderly parents in chutz la'aretz. The parents may have some support systems but it really should be the children taking care of them. How do we decide what to do? The mitzvah to honor your parents is GIANT. Yet we feel a very strong drive to move to Israel. What can we do? We need Moshiach now.

the right track
That's why we need to choose our rabbi carefully, who will guide us in the right way. Hashem wants us to keep Torah and mitzvos, yet doesn't expect us to be perfect, just try our best, like it says in Pirkei Avos. Besides thinking and doing, we also need to feel. Without internalizing it, people are not motivated to keep it. We need to see and feel the joy and beauty so we want to keep it. And we need to understand why it's important, so when it's difficult, we stay committed.
