We keep going. We keep surviving. We keep thriving. We keep marching. We keep talking, thinking, and acting no matter what happens around us. So, this is such a fine line. There's a way to be stubborn that could literally destroy you. But then there's a way to be stubborn that's so necessary to be everything you need to be because you don't have to go through Nazi Germany or Kazaks or Crusades or Inquisitions or difficult times in order to experience punch after punch in life. And Hashem said, "I'm going to make my chosen nation have a stubbornness that could be used very wrong, like to create an ego, but also have a stubbornness that can be used very right in order to endure through thousands of years." So, if you find yourself being a stubborn person, emotionally stubborn is the most wonderful quality in the world cuz you keep getting PUNCHED AND YOU KEEP GOING. But when you're mentally stubborn, it is such a negative quality because you keep being told and you're still not listening. And when that's the stubbornness, it's dangerous. But when you have the stamina to persevere, there's no greater stubbornness than that. Thank you.
