In this week's parsha we read the verse that states "G-d's, handiwork is perfect, all of His ways are just". Chazal tell us that a person should not question why man he was created in the way that he was. Why does he have two arms and not three, why does man walk facing forward and not backwards etc? A person might think that it would be better or more convenient if he were created differently. The way we were created though was perfect in the sense that it is exactly what we need in order to accomplish our purpose.

A person may also ask why certain things happen to him and not to others. The Jewish People asked Moshe when he went up to Mount Sinai this question and he responded by telling them that what he saw in the world-to-come left him with no questions. All of G-d's ways are perfectly just.

We may have many questions in this world of why. Why are we the way were are? Why do we have the issues and difficulties that we may have? But the answer is in this week's Parsha, everything is perfect and just. We may not comprehend everything we see and experience but we must know that it is perfect for us. Most people don't question why don't we have wings so we could fly, or why don't we walk on all fours like animals. We might not know the answer to these questions but most people realize that there was Divine Wisdom behind why were created in this fashion and we are not bothered by these questions. We are bothered by questions in regards to our livelihood, health, family etc. We have moments that we question "why me"? But we need to think in the same sense that we don't question why we have two arms and not three, we should question why we have X and not Y.

Shabbat Shalom and Gemar Tov and Chag Sameach!
