I don’t really like your comment even with the disclaimer. It can be used as an excuse to do sins. We must try our very hardest not to sin no matter what. Once we did sin, we should do teshuva but keep in mind that teshuva does not work for aveiros that you did having in mind that you will do teshuva and sin again. Don’t try to make people feel good by fooling them into thinking they will land in gan eden no matter what they do. If you do what you like and in the back of your mind you feel “guilty” it doesn’t work.

H-m put e/o in whatever situation they are knowing that it’s best for them. Everyone has hardships, some more than others. None is an excuse to get away with serving H-m.

Your post sounds like someone talking to an alcoholic and saying, as long as you stop in 10 years from now, or as long as you feel bad, it’s okay. Someone who has real rachmanus on an alcoholic will not be so “nice” and be very strict with them.
