Having The Right Perspective

Hashem tells Moshe how much He misses the Avos, who never complained the way Moshe did. Why is that a fair comparison, when Moshe was crying out for his people and not for himself, as he did again after the Egel? The Dalki Moshe on the Midrash in Parshas Vaera finds the rebuke in one word Moshe chose. It touches what we call good and bad when life hits hard, and Rabbi Asaf Prisman closes with a recent headline that showed how one man lived it.
