This was an outstanding shiur and so relevant to Yom Kippur. Maybe some of us run away from G-d, not by hiding in a cave but hiding under the blankets. We put off hard decisions, say "I'll deal with it tomorrow" or "let's wait and see", and stall because we just don't want to face up to hard decisions. Maybe that's part of what T'shuva is, facing ourselves and facing up to ourselves, and to G-d, on Yom Kippur.
Thanks for the amazing sermon. You are the best Rabbi Finkelstein.

Rabbi Shai always gives a great Shiur.
