You know the game that you play, whereby you fall backwards into someone's arms (hopefully)? The trust game. I'm pretty certain that you would choose someone you trust - hence the name. You wouldn't want to be paired with someone who dislikes you.
We have spoken of darknes and Golus/exile. The fact is, that this is precisely when G-d is carrying us. It may be dark, but if I am with the One I trust the most, I can take comfort in that.
But it's still dark.
The 17th Tammuz ushers in a sad period of time. It should be the happiest. It was to be the culmination of the giving of the Torah. Moshe was bringing down the luchos to give to the Jewish Nation. But they were shattered - along with a nation's dreams.
Let us explore how we can find the light within the dark, the comfort within the distress. If we can, we will begin to understand the day that could have been - the day that we hope will be filled with light, not night.
