thankyou for the calendar notes it is encouraging.
Teshuva confessio is never between two people. We daven to Hash-m and ask to be forgiven for our sins.
The Zohar HoKodosh states that a person who does Teshuva for one hour, one day or even one minute, is privillaged to a closeness to Hash-m that Tzadikim can't ever reach.
the third foundation of doing Teshuva is Azivas Hachet- One must forsake the sin and promise to not repeat it in the future.
The Prophet Yishayahu says (6:10)- "they turn back in Teshuva and they will be healed."
R' Avigdor Miller, ztl, explains this to mean that the primary result of Teshuva, is healing from guilt. an aveiro is a illness of the Neshama and when we cry out to Hash-m and aske to be forgiven, we are healing our neshama. Fortunate is one who achieves healing in Olam Hazeh precluding the need for atonement in olam Haba.
a chosid once aske the great tzadik, Reb Shlomo of Karlin, "what is the greatest aveiro a person could commit in his lifetime?"
Reb Shlomo thought for a minute, then he answered, "The GREATEST sina person can commit is, to forget that he's a son of a king!
the Beis Elokim's opinion is that if one does proper Teshuva, but in the future succumbs to his Yetzer Hora, his Teshuva is still Valid. It doesn't take away from the sincerity he had when he was asking Hash-m for forgiveness. Now he must make stronger gedarim and daven that he have more strgnth and continue to grow. one shouldn't give up and despair thinking he will fail in the future anyway.
Every step, tefilla or act of Teshuva is considered tremendous in the eyes of Hashe-m Yisborach; for now, Elul, He awaits for EVERYONE'S tefillos and Teshuvos!

when it comes to do Teshuva, one should never look back and think of all the misdeeds he has commited. he shouldnt be discouraged and say they've done too much, their list is too long. Rather, they should remember that Hash-m Yisborach awaits for one THOUGHT of teshuva, a bit of guilt, or some regret. In bereishis (19:17)- do not look behind you!" when it comes to Teshuva, always look at the future, think of the path you are choosing now and not the one you were on.
we daven to Hashem, and we ask people to forgive us
when I read comments I feel so ignorant, I have done Tshuva, but still I don't know anything
There is allways time to get forgivenes from Hashem, we can ask him any time, but from man, we have to do it right now, due we don't know if we will be here tomorow
the Heavenly Voice goes forth PA 6:2
