G-d Always Dwells within You
Ramban writes that the command to make the Mishkan was said directly after Matan Torah, and the actual making of it was after Yom Kippur.
There is no repetition of the command in Torah, even though the chayt ha'egel was in between the command and the building. It didn't need to be repeated.
The chayt never blemished Hashem's desire to dwell with His people.
Regardless of the fall/slip we may have sometimes, Hashem always desires our company. The slips hurt us, but never Hashem's desire to be with us.

Thanks so much for all you have done for me thus far. What you folks have been part of, is truly amazing and historic. My life has grown so much because of it, and there are dozens of families I have come to know personally who have been saved by recovery. And they found it through GYE. - D.A.
~~~~~
All these years I've had my ups and downs but I didn't come to realize the amount of damage it has done to me and especially in my recent marriage, until recently, when I encountered GYE's ad on a Jewish website. - "firstyid"

Selfishness
No man is more cheated than the selfish man.
--Henry Ward Beecher
When we're selfish, we close off the channels of exchange with others. Not only are we grabbing and holding all the goods or attention we can get, but we are denying others the possibility of sharing with us in the benefits. We may be selfish in material goods, but there are many other ways, too. Some of us expect our spouses to meet our needs while we make little effort to meet theirs. Some of us discover our selfishness as we drive, refusing to yield a position to another car or getting furious if we lose a place in heavy traffic.
By contrast, our generosity and welcoming responses nourish the spirit within us and create a good environment for our growth. Sometimes giving does not come easily. We have a more generous spirit when we are in touch with our ultimate vulnerability. All of life is fragile, and we need each other to have a good life. We can truly hold on to nothing but ourselves. Giving what we can of our time, our energy, and our goods, helps create the kind of world we want to live in.
Today, I will look for ways to be generous with those with whom I share this world.
