Description

A person who feels a loss does not need anything to be reminded of the loss. Unfortunately, only on Tishah B'Av do we tap in to our destruction. Our nation has become 'filthy' in the eyes of the nations of the world. We are mourning the desecration of Hashem's honor, the Jewish people, and the destruction of the Beis HaMikdash (Holy Temple). We hope that, although we've sunken to low levels, Hashem still loves us.
