After reading many articles regarding product recalls, it made me wonder if only an object can fail to accomplish its goal or if “recalls” can pertain to people as well.
“A recall is an effort to limit liability for corporate negligence and to improve or avoid damage to publicity.” (Wikipedia)
As we grow, we are constantly looking for ways to improve ourselves and as we face different challenges, we hopefully become smarter and stronger.

When the adapters of the Rebbe’s talks were working on a very delicate subject, one of the editors wrote a note to the Rebbe proposing a certain interpretation of the subject matter to which the Rebbe responded, “This is complete heresy.”
The reason I mention this is because the following is a delicate idea which I have not seen explicitly stated and thus pray that it is not sacrilege.

“And He [G-d] said, For there is a hand on the throne of the Eternal, [that there shall be] a war for the Lord against Amalek from generation to generation.”
