DY > because you do that all the time
I know I am overdoing it. I just found this whole sad story very revealing in gashmiyus and ruchniyus. To quote a market Chacham said: “when the water goes away, you see who is swimming naked”. Similarly, my Rav advises to listen to children: parents learned how to say things in a way people will accept, but the children will tell you what parents really think. So, Covid created a totally “novel” environment and we can’t simply copy previous behaviors. I focus here mostly on negative examples, but, in truth, there are lot of positive ones, people doing the right things, helping others, restraining themselves from doing things. Relevant to this thread – good cases are often invisible, but no less “kiddush Hashem”. You find out sometimes by chance. I once called an old gentleman who did not come for a yom tov, he said that one of his relatives got Covid and thus, he did not come not to risk exposing others. Now, when I see someone who is exposing others to risk, I know that, but how many people abstained – we don’t know.
