What’s Wrong with Being Insecure?

“I make mistakes all day long.” For Elul, do Teshuva, and for a change, learn how to tolerate yourself (Bitachon!). All your weaknesses are Yissurim that you should be happy with; and they will save you from Gehinom. “I’m a little crazy” (just like everyone else; only that they do a good job in hiding their Meshugassen).

“I don’t mind my wife and/or Chavrusa’s weirdness... they’re just like me.” (Have a sense of humor! It’s healthy!)

A Polish Yiddene (Jewish woman) used to say about Shiduchim: “I’m not the best, and I’m not looking for the best.”
