This is the history of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the L-rd G-d made the earth and the heavens (Bereishis 2:4)
Hashem created the world with the letter "Hay", leaving two open portals, at the bottom and at the side. Man's natural inclination is to strive to rise. If he succeeds, he can enter through the wide door at the bottom of the "Hay'. Should he, however, stray, he need not fear, for there remains yet another chance, and he can squeeze through the small opening at the side.
Man is not perfect. At the time of creation, Hakodosh Boruch Hu already made provision for the weaknesses of humanity. He created opportunities for man to rise above his failings.
Despite what has previously transpired, I need never despair. Each day is a new beginning and new opportunity.
