One of the best things that can happen to you before Rosh Hashana is that you get insulted. (!) The Chofetz Chaim explains that when we are insulted and don't answer back, and try to judge the person favorably (making excuses for them as we would easily do for ourselves), then we are forgiven for all of our sins, even the ones we did on purpose!!
Our sages teach that G-d judges us how we judge others. If we are exacting and critical and unforgiving vis-a-vis other people, then Hashem treats us the same way. With a few days until Rosh Hashana, let us try harder to judge others favorably and treat them with compassion.
May Hashem bless us with a New Year filled with abundant revealed goodness!
