A rabbi argues that honesty matters more than following rules. If you're frustrated about not driving to synagogue on Shabbat, write it down at the Western Wall instead of pretending it doesn't bother you. The same goes for a doctor's diagnosis: acknowledge what's true, or you'll make things worse.

You have a question, you have a problem. Next time when you go to Jerusalem, go to the Western Wall, write a note. Dear God, I don't accept this. I don't. I'm very sorry. I'm very disappointed. I just found out that I cannot come to the synagogue with the car. I'm very upset. I disagree with you. Fine, take it with him, but don't come and say, no, that's not what the Torah say. Be honest. Be honest. When the doctor told you your situation, don't say the doctor is crazy. Say, I have a problem. Don't say the doctor is crazy because you'll be dead anyway. It's not gonna help you. Say, unfortunately, today I found out I have a problem. Now let's see how I'm fixing my problem because I don't want to pay the price.
