“LF: You’re being ridiculous. Beyond ridiculous.”
*** Indeed!! I’ve reached my goal!! ***
ps rumors abound that the owner of the apartment building that collapesed last week, took note of this tragedy and purchased 3 smoke detectors per room.
For the sake of argument (oh, how I love every minute of it) there’s a slight difference between dancing in the street than to reside in a peaceful house. Opps, ??? ?????? low duck.
The danger is the fire, and any apparatus that started it. Therein lies the sakana, not the alarm that convinces people their lives are on the line (oh, how about neighbors).
Furthermore, making a spiritual chesbon hanefesh, the right way, is attending to the root of the issue, there should be no need for any alarm, (neither fire, water, personal injury, financial setback, interpersonal relationship issues, child rearing issues and etc. Directing one’s sole attention to a smoke alarm (no matter how many) is just thwarting, forestalling a specific symptom, not the cause. As I’ve wrote before (I just love repeating myself) ???? ?????? ?????.
As I wrote before, on should seek to prevent injury, harm, misfortune, just the normal way. And then to be ???? ???? who ultimately decides the outcome.
