What if we feel like we haven't accomplished as much repentance as we would've liked over the past month?  What if we are embarrassed to show our faces in synagogue on the High Holidays after another year of failed accomplishments?  What's the advice? Join me as I relay a few parables revealing the key to gaining God's assistance in the repentance process.  Activate God's help in making us repentant! May we all be written in the book of life for a year of health, success and amazing growth! Happy Listening!
