so a set of shabbos once again and like i've been doing for the past few months i want to share a thought and this week we won't speak about the passages of shavuot but rather a thought for slichus so ashkenazim starts saying this monster shabbos either after chad says and every day in the morning we start with ashrae and then we say various putin you'd given me this and towards the end of the slithers we say mishano mishona lavrov maria nenu [Music] you responded to the twitters of all those giants respond to my twitters as well and then this demands an explanation the entire slices we say in russian all the different sections and then towards the end of the sea for susan we switch over to aramaic olivia mili and this is a thought i've been thinking about a lot so we stand and we say who you answered you should answer me you responded to israel why don't you respond to me and you responded so respond to me and you actually answer the prayers of all the siddiques why am i different really really are you out of your mind are you crazily insanely arrogant either michigan or you have tons of hoods but you really think that you compare to any one of those great individuals so you think of because this he should respond to you as well and actually he responds to all this i think he'll see them and to me which category do you belong to
