I suddenly understand why horror movies are so popular. People are hungry to feel something, yet none of the conventional pleasures (intellectual, spiritual, physical, or materialistic) are adequate for eliciting the desired emotional response. People have to be literally shocked into feeling something. How lucky we Yidden are to have so many wonderful chagim, especially Pesach, that are laden with emotion provoking content. Even a block of wood must feel something at the Seder table. Good Shabbos and Chag Sameach!
