yayin yashan bkli chadash,
You can develop all the fire safety plans you want, but if you don’t fix the the cause and only address the symptoms…
Why would you assume from my post that I am only focusing on fire safety plans, with no corresponding spiritual work? Would you have criticized Yaakov Aveinu for breaking his camp in two (safety measures!) when facing Esav because you assumed he didn’t also daven to Hashem for protection?
I am interested in making the best, most whole response to this unfathomable tragedy, and that includes spiritual responses (realizing that Hashem controls everything, and beseeching Him for closeness and protection), relational responses (realizing how precious my family is, and trying to live accordingly), and physical responses (making my home as safe a place for my family and me as possible). Do you have a problem with this?
