A gut voch,
I received this “conversation” via email, as well as reading it here on YWN.
The piece has benefits, but there is something about it that is very disturbing to me, and that is the language used within the piece. I have no idea who wrote the piece, and my point is not to attack the writer. I do feel that this has to be pointed out.
While I understand that this is meant to be a conversation, expressions such as “promise You won’t be mad” and “let me just tell You HaShem” do <i> not </i> sit well with me.
A person should not talk to a rebbi/parent this way – a conversation with HaShem?!
Also – “don’t be sorry.” Why not?! Part of teshuva is charota!
The piece could still have the same point, but without these l’shonos.
