"I don’t care what someone else is doing....."

When I was growing up and got in trouble, I would use the line that every kid uses: "...well everyone else is doing it!". My father would always respond to this by saying, "I don’t care what everyone else is doing. I care what YOU do!".

As adults many of us still resort to using this line. I would imagine that Hashem responds just like my father:

"I don’t care what someone else is doing. I care what YOU do!!"
