W. 43 - A Tearful Message

We see from car windshield wipers that have a cleanser resovoir that shoot out the fluid to interact with the wipers , how beneficial it is. But there are times when the regular washing may be insufficent & it may be sent to a carwash for a major cleansing.
Tears serve as a major overhaul when there is an emotional situation which requires deeper thoughts of repentance.
But why does Hashem create so many protective devices for the eyes - the eyelids have eyelashes , above which there are also eyebrows ?
Obviously , Hashem is urging us to appreciate how precious are our eyes & how we should protect them from inappropriate vision.
The entire eye is surrounded by shock absorbers which shield the eyes from blows.
Now may be a good time for a gem of Torah study.
