The news the last few months to those who follow has been pretty big chizuk to those who follow it( although those who don't are definitely alot bette
r off.I actually heard personally from one of the major Roshei Yeshiva today that although one is is definitely better off not picking up a newspaper( kosher) but at least if you do study it the right away and walk away with some lessons.
So getting back to the story. There have been all sorts of stories over the past year of very rich and powerful men who lost everyth
ng because they couldn't control themselves, Cosby, Weinstein to name a few. Each one by themselves is a lesson to all of us how much one can lose from following his taaovs. But for me the biggeest story so far was this week when the CBS Board decided that the former President/CEO would not be getting his severance package of $125 MILLION!!! All because he had done a few unwanted things to women. Imagine if he would have realized this act will cost me 10-20 million would he have done it? Definitely not. And we as מאמינים בני מאמינים know that the חורבן to ourselves our families and the entire Universe by doing any of these things is alot more than $125 million. If so how extremely careful do we have to be not to forget this lesson.
PS and especially considering that we aren't dealing with uncorroborated witnesses. we aredealing with the ultimate עין רואה, ועיניו משוטטות בכל הארץ
Let me know what you think
