Chumash - Parshas Ha'azinu: Dubno Maggid - The Gift Of - Revach: "away. Sure enough the day came when this same friend lent him money. When he came around to collect this genius started doing the silly act that his friend taught him. Seeing this, his friend gave him two whacks with his stick and said, 'Fool, I taught you this trick don't use it on me'. The Dubno Maggid says, Hashem gave us wonderful gift in the ability to forget. Without it we would not be able to go on in life after a fight or after death of a loved one. We would not do a thousand things that we need to do because of one bad experience many years ago. Forgetting things over time helps heal our many wounds. So what do we do with this wonderful gift? We use it to forget Hashem. For that we get two whacks!away.
