Appreciating the Small Things in Life
Teshuvah: The Shaarei Teshuvah teaches that teshuvah is one of the greatest gifts. Really, it is not logical. If someone gets a speeding ticket and tells the officer that he is sorry and won't do it again, he will still receive a ticket. Yet teshuvah gives us the ability to completely erase our sins no matter how much one has transgressed! Hashem desires our teshuvah and is eagerly waiting for us to return to Him. As we say in Selach Lanu, “Blessed are You Hashem... Who desires repentance.”
