From Hurt to Healing: Lessons in Loving Your Fellow Jew | Mr. Harry Rothenberg ESQ | Tisha B'Av 2025

Robbie, thank you very much for the uh kind words of introduction and thank you to uh my other friends at Khazak and at Torah Anytime for this opportunity for all the prior opportunities. Looking forward to future ones and thank you for everything you do for the Jewish people. Speaking about the Jewish people, we know we have an obligation. It's pretty straightforward one, not the easiest. You have to love your fellow Jew. Everybody's familiar with that. And that means all of your fellow Jews, even the annoying ones. Even the ones that are your neighbors and they block your driveway. You have to love them. Even the ones when you get on an LL flight that you've paid a couple thousand dollars for and you're in a middle seat in economy and you're figuring I should get at least one of the armrests and one yid to one side and one Jew to the other side. They each take an armrest and now you have none. You have to love both of them. You have to love the guy that sits next to you in shul with an obvious cold or worse, maybe the flu, and is sneezing and hawking and and going through a box of tissues and then leaving the tissues in front of him and in front of you. You have to love that person. And if you don't love that person, not only are you not fulfilling the obligation, the positive obligation, but you are violating a negative prohibition. There's a prohibition that says you can't hate a fellow in your heart. Can't do that. And that's a big one. Stone was destroyed because of that. Not just because they hated each other, but not just stone. We know the most recent basis was destroyed because of because yidden didn't get along. You can't hate one of Hashem's children. Imagine as a parent, those of us who are parents know how painful it is when siblings when when a parent's own kids fight. So for Hashem, if one Yid is hating another or if two are hating each other, those are his kids in a fight. You can't hate a fellow Yid. Now the laws in the Torah are pretty straightforward. Some of them we understand. Don't murder, we understand that one. Don't steal, we understand that one. There are others. The paraduma, maybe we don't understand that one as well. Kash, maybe we don't understand as well. There's some that are difficult to understand, but we know the law is the law. You got to follow it. Why do you do that? Because Hashem said so. Do you understand it? Maybe. Maybe I don't. Maybe I think you understand it. Maybe I don't really understand it. Maybe there are deeper reasons you have to do it. Then there are all these stories like what's going on. Hashem is Shakespeare. Hashem says, you know, I know laws can be boring, so I'm going to I'm going to have some also have some stories. So that way you'll sit down and you won't be totally bored. You might be a little bored during the laws, but you'll wake up a little bit during the stories. The stories are doing the same thing that the laws are doing. The stories are teaching us how to act and how not to act. Those stories, the same way the laws will say do this and don't do that. When you read these stories that Hashem curated, that Hashem chose which stories to put in and which not, there's some great stories that aren't in the Torah. A being thrown in the furnace, the Kesh, it's not in the Torah. Hashem decided which stories to put in and which details of these stories to include to teach us lessons. And so, you'll see if you pay attention, time and again, story after story, we're being told, don't hold grudges. Here's an example. One of the most beautiful hidden things in the Torah is that at the same time that Abraham is looking for a wife for his beloved son yet through a messenger. He sends his messenger Alazar to go find a wife. Yets is involved in the exact same activity. It's not so obvious. What's he doing? He's looking for a wife for his father. Why? Because Sor Yeetszak's mother has passed away. And so Yitzk is in Beerroi. That's why when Eleazar comes back with Rifka, Rifka and Yitzkar don't meet for the first time in Aram's tent or where Aram is living. They meet at Berairoy. Why? Because Yitzk had gone down there to bring Hogar back to remarry his father. Beautiful. Father's looking for a wife for son. Son's looking for a wife for father. Why did he go to bring Hogar back? Remember the last time we saw Hagar, Sara, his mother, was kicking her out of the house along with Ishmaal. Now he's going to bring her back. There's a pair. There's a commentator. says the reason he went down there to bring her back is because he was concerned that she was holding a grudge against his mother. Wait one second. First of all, his mother passed away. You have to be worried that somebody's holding a grudge against you or against one of your relatives after they've passed away. Yes, apparently you do. But hold on one second. Holding a grudge. When Aram was wondering what to do, he didn't want to kick out his wife, his second wife, Hogar, and his son Yishal. Hashem told him, "Listen to Sara." So what's Yatsk worried about? So what if Hogar is holding a grudge? Hashem said it was the right thing to do. That's a pretty good hasher. Imagine you go to a restaurant. Hey, uh what's the supervision? It's under God. God. Yeah. Well, who who's the raam? Like who gives the hash? No, actually God. God's the he gives the hasht. I don't know about you. I would eat there. I would trust God's hashtra. God said listen to your wife. And yet still worried. Yeah, but she's still holding a grudge. Right or wrong? I got to go take care of it. So he shows up to bring her back. There's only one problem with that. What's he thinking? Who's the worst possible person to go? I would say he should have sent any messenger on the planet. Him. He's the guy that caused her to get thrown out. The reason that Sorah told Aram to kick Hugger and Ishmal out was because I Yesh Hugger's son was a danger to Yak. So Yitak himself is going to show up. Remember me? Yeah, I remember you. Why is he going himself? Do what your father did. Send a messenger. So I want to make a suggestion. Maybe this is why he's going himself because the whole purpose of his visit is to make sure she no longer holds a grudge. We know that when Rifka first laid eyes on Yetsk, she fell off of the camel she was riding on. She sees this figure. He's dominant and he is majestic. He's angelic. He's as close to an an angel that a human can be in human form. He's a human, but he's she can't believe what she's seeing. She falls off the camel and she's stammering, stuttering, saying to Elazar, "Who who who is that?" And he says back to her, I imagine with a big smile, "That's your new husband." That's the reaction from Seitzk. So maybe Yizak goes himself so that when he knocks on the tent, I don't know how you gain access to a tent, clears his throat outside her tent, and Hugger says, "Who's there?" And he says, "It's Yzk." And now right away like, "Oh, Yitzk." the nerve of him showing up and opens the tent and sees this malik in human form sees and now in one moment it crystallizes I didn't realize what was going on now I understand that's what your mother was doing that's why she had to throw me and my son out my son was a you know was a troublemaker but I didn't realize that she was trying to create somebody like you and so maybe in an instant she doesn't just get over the grudge because she's being brought back to Abraham. She's brought back to Abraham by this guy who she now realizes, "Yeah, my son was a bad influence." And maybe that's why at the very end, the last mention of her, we're told in the Torah, "The a told us Ishmael, these are the generations of Ishmael. Ben Aram, the son of Ara, Asher, Hogar, Hamitz, whom Yhogar, the Egyptian shifas, Sara, the maidervant of Sara, Ara that she bore to Abraham. You'd think that Hugger would be screaming, "Don't This is my my epitap. This is my tombstone. This is how you're describing me. After she threw me out, I don't want to be described as shifas, the maid servant of Sorah. Yeah, I want to be described as the wife of Ara. No. Maybe he succeeded so beautifully in uprooting the grudge. She's like, put it in the Torah. I understand what she did. It took me years to understand, but now I understand. Put me down as get over that grudge. Now, you may say, and it would be a fair reaction, hold on a second. Yes, he had suck did a great job. He got rid of the grudge, but he wasn't the one holding the grudge. That's relatively easy. Two guys are in a fight. You're asked. It's not an easy thing to do, believe me. But it's not as difficult as giving up your own grudge. He wasn't in the fight. He didn't hold the grudge. He was the peacemaker. Like Aron would go to each person. They were in a fight. Hey, you know that other guy's looking for you to apologize. Really? Then he'd run to the other person. You know, that guy's looking for you to apologize. Really? And then he'd make schol he wasn't holding a grudge himself. How do you know that? You have to get over your own grudge. So here's how I know. Another story. Moshe has a um a problem because Korak is rebelling against him and Korak is upset you know hey I'm also from Ley and you know maybe I should have been the leader maybe I should have been the coal why not me and Co and Korak not surprisingly gets joined by these two fellows named Dawson and Aver Dustin are very very familiar to Moshe because Dustin and Aver have been a thorn in his side for a long time they're the guys that were fighting that he got involved and they told on him. They're the ones that started up with him when he went to to when he came back when he went to parro and they complained. They were the guys who who didn't join the yidden initially when they crossed the over and over and over again. Constant thorns in his side. You'd think that Moshe would take one look at the situation and say, "Oh, Dustin of Verm's joining and the earth's going to swallow them up." Yep. I feel really bad for those guys. That's not what he does. He sends out a delegation to appease them. Rashi says on the spot, this is mindboggling. He says, From here we learn you don't continue an argument because Mosha went after them. He said the delegation to send them words of peace to appease them. >> From here we learn you don't keep up on I would have thought somebody who is my antagonist, my nemesis, and they do something against me and I don't say a word. Okay, I'm not keeping up to mus takes two to tango. I'm just not gonna say a word. Rash is saying that's not enough. When you're in a fight with somebody, it's not enough to take the high road and say, "I'm not going to respond." You have to go out with words of shalom. Even if it's somebody who antagonized you, you're Moshe, who could be more right than Moshe. They're Dawson Num who could be more wrong. So, how was he able to do that? And he didn't just do that, by the way. They responded to the delegation with the disgusting, outrageous response. You'd think again, okay, now he can give it a rest. He tried. No, he then goes himself with a delegation of elders and tries again. Maybe because he put himself in their shoes as follows. Let's go backwards. Okay. There was an incident where Hashem told Moshe, "Okay, I'm going to get you some help here. We're going to appoint seven elders. Moshe was pretty good at math. It's not that complicated. 12 tribes. Six times 12. If you take six from each tribe is 72. That's a bit of a problem because I only have 70 spots." So, what does he do? He makes a guy roll. He makes a lottery. Okay? like every rebby, you know, who's raffling something off, uh, you know, to try to do a prize for their class. And in the gyro, whoever, you know, is going to going to draw the blank one, they're going to be the two people that aren't included. And surprisingly, according to some, Lot and Maid, who do become prophets, they do become leaders. They weren't they didn't even show up. They figured it's not going to be us. And it turns out that it's them, which means there are two other guys who they were in it, but they didn't get it. So, who are those two other guys? So, I was thinking once, maybe it was Dustin. And there were the two guys that didn't get chosen. And I spoke to my RV about this and he said, "You have to understand something, okay? Who were these people chosen from?" They were chosen from former Chrim. Those were the officers that took beatings on behalf of the Jewish people. Dustin and Aver were to the Cho, but there were many, many, many Chrim appointed over the Jewish people. Thousands and thousands of Chrim. There is no way that those two rascals were possibly in the running. There's no way they were in the running. But now, put yourself in their shoes. After the moragum, after the spies came back and two of them, Kivoshua had a good report and the other 10 had a bad report and the males among Kasra just want to point that out. We sinned, you all didn't on that side of the mita call, you weren't involved in the Ago, you weren't involved in Moragland. It was us. It's always the men. We get it. We're always wrong. We understand that. We're used to it. So the men believed the bad report. And then afterwards, the said, "You know what? Let's elect a new leader." According to the Medish, they elected a new leader. You know who cla elected as their new leader? Two people to serve together. Dustin and Aver. So now you're Dustin and Aver. And now Moshe is rounding up six people from each tribe. In order to be in the running, you have to be one of the former, one of the former officers. And you're not even in the running? Are you kidding me? Clausro just elected us as the next leaders. And he doesn't even put us in the running. You can understand why they'd have a capeda. Now, they're wrong. They don't deserve to be in the running. But from their perspective, imagine the level of embarrassment. So, Moshe puts himself into their shoes. I'm going to send a delegation out. I'm not going to stay quiet. They respond disgustingly. I'm going to go myself. This is Moshe. He's the d of a king. Goes himself after the disgusting response because he put himself in their shoes. He was duff. Now, you'll say to me, "Okay, all right. I get it. You know, I'm in a fight and maybe I'm not quite as perfect as Moshe and maybe the other side isn't as bad as Dustin. Although when you're in a fight, you generally think that the other side is worse than anybody. But you see there, you just explained it. Moshe was able to be donus. So maybe that's why he had to go because he was don so he understood where they were coming from. What if there's no way to understand where they're coming from? There's no donus. So here's the next story. Rashi tells us in paras quotes med that the kus that we bring on roesh that we used to bring on roesh hopefully someday soon we'll rebuild the base of mdish and be brought again the reason it's brought is because hashem asks us to bring it on his behalf to atone for him for having shrunk the size of the moon hold on a second we're bringing for hashem to atone for something hashem did hashem can't do anything wrong complained what was the moon's complaint Hashem created the sun and the moon and originally they're the same size and the moon said we can't have two leaders and Hashem said okay well in that case shrink yourself right what was the moon's problem the moon thought he's a leader you're not a leader it's like it's like a you know a child you know like not realizing you know like well we can't have a you know I can't have two parents like you're it depends on what the role is the moon wasn't a leader the moon like the sun was a servant a king could have two co-extensive co-equal same-sized servants leaders maybe one has to be bigger than the other. So the moon was completely wrong. 100% wrong. Hashem was 100% right. And yet Hashem says, "Bring a katus for me to for having made the smaller even if there's no way to be there's nothing. You got the receipts. You got the obnoxious text. You got the all the you have everything you need to know. You confirmed it. It wasn't just a rumor. The person that did this to you, they did it. They embarrassed you. Whatever it was they did to you, they hit you. They punched you, they insulted you, and they were 1,000% wrong. Forgive, forget, work it out. That's what we're being told. And if we don't do that, I want to show you what can happen. I have um I'm blessed, thank God, I have uh my youngest children are twin boys and I've seen this time and again, you know, particularly when they were when they were younger, but to this day, they get into a big fight. Siblings, unfortunately, like I talked about before, it's painful to apparent, but you know, siblings can fight and you know, boys can fight, girls can fight, you know, especially the same age or the same size, so it's a pretty even match. Okay, they they would fight and they get into a fight and then 10 minutes later, I'd walk into our den. In our den, we have something that's called a love seat. It's basically the size of for like one and a half people. Okay? Like a person could sit in it very comfortably. It's not really big enough for two people. The two of them would be sitting on the love seat next to each other, both reading. And I walk in the room saying, "Wait, what? Weren't you guys in a fight?" And they look up like, "Oh, yeah, but that like what do you mean? That was 10 minutes ago. We made up." Okay. I wonder sometimes maybe twins are in the world to teach us. That's what happens. That's how you should be. You get into a fight, you work it out, and that's it. And you forget about it. Okay. Let's talk about Let's talk about uh twins. So, I've said this before and people have said to me, "You're crazy." I may be crazy, but you're not going to prove it through this. Asov had affection for Yakov. I said, "What are you talking about?" Everybody knows Asaf son is Yakov. I'm going to prove it to you. After Yakov takes the and Jacob's mother tells him, "You got to get out of here, okay? He's going to kill you." This is how Rashi explains it. Okay? says regrets the affection, the closeness that he had for you. He's thinking another thought. He's going to distance himself for you from you and then he's going to kill you. Let's just think about it for a second, okay? When they were twins, when they were 10 years old, before Yakov went off to go learn full-time after bar mitzvah and Asov went out to kill, pillage, etc. full-time after Baritzvah. when they were 10 years old, the night before a test, you don't think Asov would go over to Yakov and say, "Um, you got to help me out. I didn't study." You think Yakov didn't help me out like give the answers? You think at recess if anybody ever bullied Yakov, you don't think that five minutes later Asa was wiping the pavement with that other guy? They were twin boys. It's the closest relationship you could have among siblings. So there was some aka such that is distanced himself in order to kill him. So now what does he do? He sends Alpha out to kill him. Okay. And Alifas we know is not successful. Why? Because he shows up. He says to Yakov, you know uh you know my father said I have to kill you. And as family they take Kibov very seriously. Yakov is a whole like you know uh sugia he goes through learning the gar with him. You know if somebody's poor it's as if they're dead. Take all my money. That'll be as if you killed me. Then he could go back and tell your father you killed me. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Let's do that. Gives him all his money. Great. Reports back to his father. I killed him. Okay. Wonderful. Isn't it interesting that when Asab went to kill Yakov, Asov, the greatest warrior ever, he sent one guy. Remember later on when they meet, Asov's got 400 men with him. Hundreds of men with him. He sent one guy. And by the way, the greatest hunter ever. Um, can I have some confirmation of the kill? Like, do you have his something like his clothing? Like the brothers they brought back to fake Ysef's death. They brought back a code. you have something like some I don't know his ring his cloak his staff something nope happened to send one guy didn't confirm the kill because he hadn't done the kill and why was Jakob able to sit down with him in the first place why Leifas just show up or you know shoot an arrow at him from behind kill him that was his job to kill him because Alifas happens to be the guy who used to sit on Yitzk's lap and like learn Toro from him and so it's just a coincidence I suppose that Asov Yakov's twin brother who had affection for him at a distance himself. Chooses one guy. The one guy who's got some kind of connection to Yadis. The one guy who could be persuaded not to kill him and doesn't confirm the kill. Maybe that came from some place, maybe a subconscious place of mercy because they were twins. Okay. As a son, his son's name is Alifas. Alifas marries a woman named Timna. The Gmoran Sanhedrin tells us that Timna tried to convert. She wanted to join the Jewish people, but the OOS said no. They rejected her. So she became a concubine to she said to um better for me to be a maid servant to this nation rather than being she was a she was a like a the daughter of a chieft rather than being a noble woman from another nation. She wanted so badly to be part of the Jewish people that she became a concubine to Alifas because even though he wasn't Jewish, he was connected to the Jewish people obviously came from the you know the same roots. That's how badly she wanted to be from the Jewish people. So now Alifas who had saved Yakov the Bir the Oos thereby saving the Jewish people. If there's no Yakov there's no shift. There's no Jewish people. Alifas and Timna have a son. So Alifa as the father is the guy who saved the Jewish people. Timna, this little boy's mother is the one who wanted to join the Jewish people. And the Aos, the patriarchs, including Yakov, whom his father saved, wouldn't let her in. Obviously, there's a reason why they wouldn't let her in, but they wouldn't let her in. So here's a kid. My dad saved the Jewish people. My mom wanted to join the Jewish people, and they wouldn't allow her. Do you think it's possible maybe that that kid's going to grow up with a bit of a grudge against the Jewish people? You know who that kid was? That kid was a malik. When we first see him, he attacks us. Like, what? I'm sorry. Have we met? What is going on? What is going on? You don't hate somebody for no reason. What's going on perhaps is that he had this grudge. I'm not criticizing the others. They had their reasons. But you could see what can happen. A grudge, if it's not taken care of, can turn into something that can absolutely destroy. And that's what we have to avoid. We just laid this from Dvarum. Moshe in his goodbye speech. The book of Dvaram is Mosha's um Mosha's goodbye. It is a it should be studied across the world for its oral advocacy. forget all that's buried into it and all that we can get from it. Just as the way he he he inspires and he educates and he prods in the right way perfectly calibrating all of his words for the desired effect before he takes leave of the Jewish people. So in the beginning of Dvarum which we just read over Shabas he he goes through different places where the yidden had stopped and Rashi points out what the implied message is. So one of them is the point that he's trying to make is that the yin should have learned the lesson from what happened to Miriam. Miriam spoke lashhara and she got saras and the yin should have learned the lesson. You don't speak lash and har but they did not learn that lesson and they spoke lash and har. They didn't learn the lesson from Miriam. Okay listen to rashi quoting Mosha's lion mode. Moshe is saying to the Yidden, "You should have learned Miriam from what I did to Miriamos." What do you mean from what I did? The last time I checked, what had happened was Miriam said something bad about Moshe or she said something negative about Moshe. She wondered aloud to Abraham after she found out that Moshe had separated from his wife. What's going on? We're prophets. We didn't separate from our spouse. Remember, this is Miriam. She old. You do not separate from your spouse. She convinced her father years earlier to get back together with mom. You don't separate from your spouse. And so she raised that with our own. But that was negative about Moshe. So she got Saras. So why is Moshe saying Rashi's words? Remember what you didn't learn from what I did to Miriam. Moshe didn't do anything to Miriam. Hashem did that to Miriam. Hashem gave Miriam Saras. Moshe didn't give Miriam Saras. Saras isn't a physical thing. He didn't like scratch her, you know, her her her arm or something to give her this physical malady. Saras is a spiritual consequence that manifests itself in a physical way. Hashem gave her Saras. Why is Mosha saying from what I did? Because Mosha's teaching us this very important frankly scary lesson that if somebody irks you, irritates you, aggravates you, insults you, hits you, dishonors you and you hold a grudge, they can get punished because of that. Moshe felt that even if it was a momentary flicker, like being in the room, he's only human, having someone say something negative about you to which he can't respond. By the way, Hashem has to come in and respond. Hashem has to say to Miriam, "He's different than you. He's not like any other prophet. Any other prophet, I speak in dreams and riddles. I speak to him face to face." Right? What was Moshe going to say to Miriam? Miriam, do you not realize who I am? I mean, come on. Haven't you seen those times when people come and they ask me a question and I say, "Wait right here. I'm gonna go to my tent and talk to God. Get an answer and come right back. You never saw me do that trick. I mean, I have a red phone. It goes right up to heaven. I mean, I'm not like anybody else. He's the own of me. He's not gonna defend himself. Hashem has to come down and defend him. And yet, he's feeling that because maybe a momentary flicker, a grudge, a capeda that happens to her, he says what I did to her. And I'll show you this how this works. Before we go to sleep at night, we say it's Fela. You know, I feel bad because I I came in and you know, while Rabbi Rahimi was talking about how you have to get that safer and you should and learn it and you should and you'll get Yeshua and Mashim, you will. So, I hate to give more homework, but I'm going give a little bit more homework, okay? It's only takes a few seconds. If you're not already saying it, you have to start saying this. And if you're already saying it, you're not paying attention to what you're saying. You need to pay attention to what you're saying. While you're saying this, this is one of the prayers. I think it's critically important. I'm not saying it won't work if you don't know it. But this one, you really should know what you're saying before we go to sleep. Every single night when we say we say the following prayer, we say Hashem, I hereby forgive anybody who who angered or upset me or who sinned against me. Bane muffy whether it was my body bone whether it was my money bane bon whether it was my honor bane bal or anything that belongs to me any my possessions bonus it wasn't their fault batzone they did it with willfully bash they did it negligently based they did it intentionally freeze the frame here you're announcing to god I hereby forgive anybody who angered humiliated hit me struck me prepared my honor intentionally whether it was with words with actions with thoughts also type of thought in this incarnation maybe we had a prior incarnation that's how far we're going every yid we're forgiving every yid for anything they did to me ever in this world in a prior world if I was in the prior in incarnate And then we add God don't punish any person because of me. We're recognizing that if I don't forgive and somebody else did something to me intentionally. Somebody walked up to me earlier today and punched me in the face and they meant to punch me. They didn't say afterwards, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I meant to hit the guy behind you." No, they meant to punch me. They stood over me afterwards. I was on the floor saying, "Hope you like that one. How about them apples?" Right? It was very clear. They did it intentionally. I'm forgiving them and I'm begging Hashem, "Don't punish them because of me." That's how powerful this is. That's how important it is to get over grudges. The mana fell from Shmayam all day. Every day. Not all day. Every day while we were in the Midbar, 40 years, just shy of 40 years. There was one day when it didn't fall. The day of Koras rebellion it didn't fall because Hashem was not going to go feed us miraculously on a day where there was muslimb says first base of mus was destroyed because of three cardinal sins we know what they were right it's murder adultery idolatry so that means you had murderers walking around you had idoltors working walking around you had uh adulterers walking around then you know it's a terrible thing the base of m just gets destroyed it was rebuilt pretty quickly 70 years later the second base mus was destroyed because of casum has not yet been rebuilt I I get it. I mean, we didn't get along, but that's worse than murder and idolatry and adultery. Yeah. Because in general, during the first B of Mikdash, notwithstanding those three terrible sins. They got along. They generally got along. And the second one, even though we weren't committing those most horrible cardinal sins, we didn't get along. And that's why it's not being built. And the say that in every generation where the base mikdash is not rebuilt, it's as if we destroyed it. So it's not enough for us to walk away and say okay look I you know I tried I you know I I I I I did this and I did this and I gave some sada and I did some learning like I I tried my best. Okay so it wasn't rebuilt. No no no no it wasn't it wasn't rebuilt we destroyed it. If it's not rebuilt during our generation we destroyed it. And why did we destroy it? Because why wasn't it rebuilt? Because we didn't get along. Because we held on to grudges. And if you're able to get over this, if you're able to work through this, if you're able to think about, you know, probably, my guess is, you know, some more than others, but my guess is each one of us, you go through the room probably has some kind of grudge, a small grudge, a medium grudge, a big grudge. If you're able to get through that, you could stand on your kipper and now you got, you know, they I'm told a friend told me a new Superman movie is out. You can have an S on your chest with a with a red cape and fly through the air. You stand there on your kipper and say, "Hashem, you know how tough it was. You know what the person did to me? You know they were 100% wrong. I didn't do anything wrong. I was 100% right. And yet I forgave them. And now I'm asking you. I'm only flesh and blood. I'm asking you to forgive me.
