Rabbi Reuven Kigel - See Positive

okay hello everyone so it's still Tish above hope I just checked with my kids in Arches role it doesn't seem like Michelle's here yet but they see signs so we don't know um we have right behind me the Chris yamsuff which includes splitting of the sea which includes you see here there's one two three twelve different paths so that represents the 12 different tribes but it also represents us Jewish people it's just thank you us Jewish people what what about us Jewish people we're not the same we're all different someone in school asked me last night hey you seem to like people there's cine baseless hatred can you help me how do I have avastinum how do I have endless love for people so first of all I told them this is not an easy thing for two thousand years our Temple the base of English has been destroyed because and not rebuilt because of sinus Phenom so it's not an answer on one foot or two minutes that I'm going to talk to you about this but maybe we could start a little bit second of all I told him that it's easier for some people and others some people are naturally more positive but what do those positive people do why they call positive because they see the positive in everyone and everything and including themselves so if you want to practice faceless love love for no reason the first way to do and the best way to do it is see the positive but you have to start inside and go outside you're not going to get to all 12 schwe from the whole 12 tribes all 15 million Jews right away first start with seeing one thing positive in yourself just one thing if you're finding one thing easily go for two then see one thing positive in your spouse really for your spouse to Tamp things positive in your spouse then see a bunch of positive things in your kids even if it's hard sometimes then see a bunch of positive things in your parents then in your in-laws yes there are positive things and in-laws also then go think about the people in your neighborhood see something positive in them of course there's going to be negative everyone but just we're going to close our eyes to that for a moment because we're practicing baseless love and seeing the positive then everyone works somewhere and learning somewhere so where you're at see the positive in those people then go one level up how about in your town see positive when you see random people in your town and then when you see random Jews around see the positive and then think of something positive make something up if they don't have anything and yes you can even practice on the non-jews because it's all part of this exercise we're doing called baseless love loving someone means you see they're positive and you overlook they're negative just remember the people that love you the most are the ones who know you the best so they know all your negative traits but what do they do they close their eyes to that and they focus on your positive have a great job
