my dear friends,
let's call this piece "nobody home" or "out of business"
this is printed in the sefer bais avrohom,parshas haazinu.(with some detail embellishment-I have to be honest)
A doctor who was once a great sinner,later did tshuva in a profound way, and he became very close to the Maggid of Mezrich.
He asked the maggid for advice,because surprise surprise, Mr YH was around then too.And old, twisted,sick,demented thoughts would rise up in his brain like an erupting volcano.thoughts from his distant past haunted him and tormented him.
The Maggid told him this parable.A Jew kept an inn selling beer to the townsfolk.and he slept in the back rooms.
Night in and night out these drunks came in to spend hours and hours in this inn,drinking beer,getting drunk,and sometimes getting very abusive
This Jew decided I had enough of being an innkeeper listening to these bums all night long.He became a very successful merchant selling wood.
Problem was that every night these stupid bums kept on coming for the booze,banging and smashing on the door,even though there was a sign that said"out of business"
they come and come,like fleas,like roaches,give us our beer,let us in!!
This Jew tells them.Nothing Doing.Inn is closed.I'm not here.Don't even understand what you are blabbering about.I'm no innkeeper.I'm a wood salesman.
these bums scream "don't you recognize us.we drank your beer for years!!"
The Jew puts on his dumbest looking face and tells these bums"don't think I ever saw you before and I don't want to see you ever again.period."
and finally they get the message,and they leave for good.
This is what the Maggid told this holy doctor.These thought pop up you say to it "no one is home","out of business".you got the wrong guy.don't know what you are talking about.
you ever encountered a harmful individual?you pretend he doesn't exist.Mr Who?never heard of him."I'm telling you something very important" Mr YH says."Oh Yeah?the United Nations is that Way.Go tell them your important news.Youll'e have alot of customers there."
This actually could be alot of fun.
Mr YH tells you your'e a shmuck
and you sing "luck,buck,ruck,kluk,yuk" and then you daven Mincha with true Simcha to the One and Only who truely loves you.
Remember this always.Hashems loves you-his succah Yidin
