I like that. I get Thank you for coming. Everyone, please have a seat. Ralph Monica right there. Yeah. Uh Mark, put your father down. Let these fathers down. Come on, Mark. Sit down. Have a seat. Come have a seat. There's plenty of seats right here. I I want to I want to begin with thanking the rabbis. It's our privilege and honor to have the rabbis here in our house. Again, Torah Masura for everyone. I mean everybody knows Tormas but like Rabbi Yadid said and Rabbi Eli Mansaw on the video the other day said that today Tormas is helping all the schools in the United States all the in the United States with everything that they need. Um it's our honor to have them again. Raberi is going to speak for a couple of minutes and then we're gonna get from the rabbis. Good of Shabbat everybody. I don't know how we do this every year. Theah, the nerve, the goal to shle the gdole here every year, year in and any year out. Obviously, it's a m for us. It's a perfection for us that they come to deal from all the gdim that we ask you to come here. We should be doing this on our own without having to bother the shivot. But every year the come if they come the will come that means that this is something extremely important to something extremely important. I was Mahane from Torah Misora when I was a little boy. I'm sure every huh 65 years ago. Yeah. 65. Danny Sor too. 65 years ago. We remember the sheets, the big the big posters on the walls, the curriculums, everything else. They're doing this for at least 65 years more. 80 years. 80. Well, we're only 65 years of it. Okay. 80 years they are doing this and they just get stronger and stronger and building more and more. day schools all over the country. Uh there's no words there's no words to say what it means to support me. It's out of Shabbat. The hour is late and we hopes we're going to hear some from the wea huh meashem I mean you all know what you're here for. And uh basically, you know, I'm here. We went and traveled around some of the houses of Hashem. The houses show pretty good. And yet, one of the requests I keep hearing is people need it. You know, I'm looking at it. I think, you know, I should walk in here and probably, you know, just hold out my hand. I got a check for a million dollars, you know, but it's somehow it's that's not what's happening. So, I think from this week's settler, we can learn how you're supposed to be mispo and that's the important maybe that's the whole difference really. It says when the canananim came after the yanana went away. So the canananim came. So there was really I'm says dress as canananim or or speaking canananim or whatever it was but somehow to confuse the yidden. What are you confusing me? You confuse me because I if I'm going to resp [Music] that that was what I have to be for but I wouldn't know about it because I'm going to be sp for canananim and somehow it wouldn't work something like that. That was their idea. So the GI claims whoever it is that says so. So in other words, we learn out from here the best defense is to ask I'm in your hands God. You're the ones that's running the show. You're the one that knows what he's doing and it's yours. So please give me panos. Now the the question I think we learned from here. Now go to Maya. What was the of you're not allowed to test God like you tested him in who was testing God? We asked we was for water. It's all we ask for. It's a natural thing. The thing is, should you be asking for water? You should be asking for hydration. It's not water that I need. I need hydration. Now, it can be natural. You can give it to me that nothing affects me. Okay, that's a mess. Give me orange juice. I don't care what you give me. It doesn't have to be water. But when you ask for something specific, that makes it a test. Let's see if God can produce. I want to see that you're not allowed to do. See, once told, my father once told me that even a guy who's needs panosa and he has and he's going for an interview at at a place that's good chance to get the job. He shouldn't be misspos now. You want to you want another thing? I don't want to look like a fool when I come in for an interview. Me, Miss Balo, don't make me look like a fool. I want to do well in the interview. That doesn't mean my panosa has to come from the interview. That's the main part. And if we remember that that is in God's hands and he can send it any way he wants. We can work here but that's all come from there that doesn't make that's all we have to keep in mind the man this all the we need and as I say in the organization we're working for also should come that way but you come from the ones we're expecting it from also my cousin the name the host all the everyone that gathered together for this ha cause this holy cause the tells us tells us that if someone is is that means if he's learning it in order to teach others then the will give him my grandfather's mazar he explains the idea is like this it's not if you can give it so I'll give it to you is that gives to so is it belongs to all He doesn't give to a to he gives to if you're learning it for you to teach it to others. You ready to teach others or you make yourself that means you're learning it not for yourself. You're learning it for so have more. So then the says okay you're a good cle you're a good person to giving to giving it to you I'm giving it to and the third that you learn belongs to each one is each on the of it's not only because even if he only has his own it's not his it's that's his and a person if he shows that he has feels So the mushroom gives him what could be bigger than the m giving him because he's showing that he is a he's responsible for the continuation of is an organization that's to ensure the continuity of that to every school every mid should be run rides, should teach rides, should teach, teach right materials and to be on top of every mo to help build moist even make when there's no to make to pick up that should be should be and if we feel that is for it only comes back to us that we should have the biggest bas in the world. We should see the simus. We should see broken our homes. We should see our children going to we ourselves should go to no should give up coming to and we should have all the and uh we should all see together time when it'll be there's really not much to did after the gym said what they said I just had a thought to Masaura today is about approximately 80 years old the vision of Torah that the great god the rashiva's grandfather Zatsal also the famous menowitz satsal and other gdylam at that time had a vision American America was a barren country. There was maybe a few handful of yeshivas in the city of New York, but really nothing. America was barren of Torah. There were no real day schools over the country. There were no Yeshiva katanas. And they had a vision that from coast to coast, there's going to be Torah. There's going to be Torah in every city. There's going to be Torah in every town. And their vision was in the sky. We have today to covers the entire continent from every place where there's a city with a reasonable amount of Jews. There's a day school there yeshiva katana there's kalim the same feelings that you have here in your community that vision was in the sky in your community also is a community that vision has built it visionaries have built it the rabbis that started with a small nucleus of people learning with them Torah Ysef, Rabbi Yadid, all the different rabbis in Brooklyn. Rabbi Diamond, tremendous what Rabbi Diamond did. He's a tal of our and it's a incredible Rabbi Habber what he did. It's so many different but a vision of a yak look what it could mushroom into. So I think this week's para says a little thing about visionaries says and says on the plate in the on the garra that we all know there's another garra in babas of when on the in the other world. Every person has a in the world to come and it's going to be very painful for somebody whose hoopa is relatively modest to have a neighbor and a friend who did his thing in a way that he has a larger koopa. And Rajbam explains that the size of the ka the greatness of the mahaba depends on the level of a maj. If a person is a visionary, if a person thinks, "What could I do? Hashem gave me parnosa. What could I do with my panosa? What impact could I have with my parnosa? How could I help's children? How could I help? All the great things we have is because there were individuals in an earlier generation that was a mash. They thought they they they schemed schemes what could help Amusel and the entire Syrian community has been become blessed into such an incredible world of Torah and Yiddish and Abodashem all because of great people that were mashim every each and every one of us has that potential to give a thought if the Shabbat there's a shabas of tora let's think about What is Torah Masora? What does it do? How could I in my way contribute to Tom to Thomas's successes and the ripple effects of those successes and we should be and it should be all of us should be to the greatest and we should about I like the way the pres the governor of presented the fact we are bothering the in this time of Shabbat. It reminds me something that after the roller coaster is one of he was caring about those orphans that was lost among the going there was a big puish and he happened to call a gir in London on chabas someone to a rabbi what do you have to call on chabas you can call for shabas he said I wouldn't call chab you would understand same dimension Now you have to understand we're dealing with when I the way I perceived the term surah at the beginning I thought it was like today we have all kind of appliance without accessories almost nothing we need everything is you need to have accessories to be able to to activate and to use them with is mamish completely empty. He's taken the main part of the but in fact the second thought is even more than that. He's like a special cooker chef in an hotel. He's not here to peeling the the the apples and the to cleaning to give the right exactly that will give the the real taste and the real value of the food. In fact, terms has taken this exclusivity to be giving the way in every mean and we need so much as so many challenges today. I don't like to speak just for speaking. I just want to say something practical today if everywhere we difficulties in controlling and being with our kids. By the way, the best is manage to invest in extend to be the best friend of your kid. That's what I did. All my kids are my best friend. I'm the first to know everything from ever. If there is something I the first to know from age zero to now they're married. Oh, I pay for that. Now they're married is still coming to me. But I'm ready to give that. But in America is very far from that. Too much disconnected from the kids. You have to be much more involved. You're more watching from the side. It's not right. And you give too much tolerance to the kid to decide for themsel. It's not true. I would just give you this very renown situation when parents feel powerless when their kids they're strong they know what they want and they have some physical kayak and do we woman how can they give bondage I can m it's crucial to have red lines but they do whatever they want I can't he does whatever he want you have to know there is a formula an approach that can be helpful to everyone. Everyone has special kus. How do you know that? If the kid comes with a nail going to to the electricity, would you reach him? Never. If he's going around with a big knife, it will never won't stay more a few seconds maybe. Every time you decide something you have to think in your head what it would have been a going to electricity whatever is the holding a knife the same way you have to act and make in your house anyone can do it this is something you have to analyze don't give up and before and after fil everything can be solved with fil we disregard this huge K that we have and we don't really recognize the love that have from us we can almost everything obtained through by the way of course that's we have to do in practic but if someone want to maintain this huge opportunity there given the the Everyone has to have a part to support and that's a school when you support you care about other education. It is good that also your kids will be on their early days it was all about nephesh nothing else that's how they made it that how they survived without money without anything in my lifetime I met a man Joe Kamki Shalom. Joe Kamitki worked full-time. It's 24/7 practically for Torah Msor. He was a man who spent a big part of his life on buses and railroad stations, sleeping in bus depots and railroad stations, going from city to city, convincing small Jewish communities in every city in this country to open up a day school. Open up a day. He smoked a pipe. I remember. Okay. We used to see him at conventions when he was elderly and he's just one example of those days of what went on in to build this organization where they made sure that there was an every a day school in almost every single city in this country to is flourishing today in this country a big part of it because of Torah msra we don't have to have that kind of msish all we need to do is give money. That's why we're here today for money. Of course, we're here to get that here. But we need money. What is the budget of Torah Misora these days? Hello, Rabbi Bloom. $11 million a year. And now, if you want to know where that money goes, sit down and talk to them and you'll hear of the various programs to enhance in this country. An 11 million budget. You boys, you people drive to work. You drive down Ocean Parkway, you see that big building, Torah Misora. Go in there one day and see what goes on. Okay. They're literally building Torah in this country. And we need money. And the hour is late, so we're not going to waste any more time. Correct. Anything else? Yes, we're going to get to it. Okay.
