repaired. The hour was late and darkness had already descended.
Noticing that the candle by which the shoemaker was working was
burning out, Rav Salanter suggested that he perhaps could wait until
the next day to fix the shoes. "Do not despair," the shoemaker
replied. "As long as the candle burns, it is still possible to fix
the shoes." As long as the spark of life still flickers in us, we
can still repair our ways. (Menuchah V'Simcha)
This indispensable condition of repair for attaining atonement is
teshuvah, "repentance" (or "return"). It is G-d's priceless gift to
us, enabling us to rise after we have stumbled, to wipe the slate
clean and return to G-d after we have gone astray. Chazal teaches
that teshuvah came into existence before the world was created; even
before Creation, G-d provided us the remedy of teshuvah, through
which we can be reconciled with our Creator.
