Stuart Hytman - Project Inspire Convention 2016 Sunday Morning

what a broa it is to be involved with an organization like project Inspire don't you agree the incredible staff I know you realize this already from K Samson down I mean all the rabbis all the people behind the scenes everybody I've never met an organization that has such dedicated staff as project inspired forever and what an incredible weekend this is like so incredible the inspiring speakers inspiring speakers the food wow I said it and the incredible octus that we've all felt this weekend but I have to say being Canadian I think it's much preferable than the octus I felt with American Jews last weekend in Toronto when the temperature hit minus 40 degrees the point where Fahrenheit meets Celsius I like this octus better I want to tell you a story that uh I have a good friend and we are always knocking heads about the importance of doing KIRO I'm on one side of the argument and you can imagine he's on the other side and after one of our heated arguments debates on on kiru at the end of the discussion he says to me you know there's this one guy who blames me for becoming from I said what do you mean he said well I learned with this guy he's a den dentist and he's from actually and we're learning to we've been learning for years and I learned with him one day at the end of our learning he says I want you to learn with my accountant he's a liberal secular Jew my friend says why would a liberal secular Jew want to learn with a long bearded Rabbi so he looks him in the eye he says I'm his dentist he'll do what I tell him we can we can be scared guy sometimes so he starts learning with him so he learns he calls him up makes AA he's learning with the accountant and so they thought what are they going to start with some nice sort of cir of introductory topic they chose MB in to start off so they're learning MB and then they really liked it they went on to in the in the just so happened after that they started to learn he would happened to D start ding a little bit more so and he ended up being the gabbi in his minion so they started to learn the hakas of being a Gabi they were learning that together they went on to just so happened they both were Avail him at the same time so they were learning the hakas of Ailers they kept on learning it was going very well in the meantime he had two children had a son and a daughter and they were becoming from on their own der a separate separate pathway so he decided you know what pulled out his checkbook checkbook and he decided I am going to send them off to Yeshiva he wrote a check and he sent his son to nerys Baltimore they were teenagers at the time they grew up they got married they're both from his kids one of them is living in AOL in the meantime he's still learning with my friend and he says you know what he starts to become from as well so he's becoming from he's sh shabas sh sh Mitzvah and he says to my friend it's your fault that I'm from so my friend turns to me at that point he says I just don't understand why is he blaming me for being from I was never trying to make him from in the first place so after I picked myself off the floor back into my chair I came to a very an Insight which impacted me deeply you've all heard of the concept of the pin yid yeah so every yid is a pin he has this spark within him no matter how far away he is from yish Kite from AES or how close he is he has that spark within his Nish all we have to do is light that spark and amazing things happen well there's another concept you may not be so aware of that I think is also in Yiddish kite I call it the Pinta kiru every from Jew is a pinta kiru they have that spark within them no matter how involved in kiru they are no matter if they've been trained in kiru if they even know any from people or not non from people or not every from yid is a pendil air of yid they have that spark if you light that spark amazing things can happen you know I've made an observation if you ask Abal Chua on their way to becoming from mitv asked them they all had one anchor that firm person who was their anchor in their lives that they leaned on that that firm person who they asked most of their questions to who they went to for most of their shabas ask them any B Chua had that anchor in their life it's really amazing so raboa what I'm saying is you have to understand what I'm saying here there are no Bal Chua who do not have that anchor nobody anyone that you see now I'm sure there's some Val you out there today but I want you to ask you if you're out there today and do a little favor for me right now if what I'm saying is true that you had that anchor who was a firm person who helped along your D to be coming from turn to the person next to you right now and tell them it's true I'm doing this because I want you to all understand this can't happen without you it cannot happen without us if 13 people walk out of this convention and decide I am going to be an anchor for another yid that's 1300 Bali Chua coming out of this convention it can only happen because of us it has only happened so are because of us because of our hus we can change our communities we can change Jewish nishas and we can change ourselves Rob desler in the MAV mahu he asked a very interesting question he knows there's six billion people in the world today and everyone has a different face everybody looks different you ever wonder why why did a kades baru we have over seven billion people now why did a Kadesh baru create the world in a way that every person looks different so rev desler brings down the he says just like their faces are not the same so too their thoughts are not the same he goes on to say that the reason that we were created in this world that every single person is able to be M Galay in this world to reveal something about hashem's glory in this world every single person has a unique way that only they can reveal the kavod shamayim in this world and that is reflective in the de everybody has a different face there is nobody who has a different face even identical twins if you look closely there's different nuances it's to illustrate the point that we have something that is unique about us that we can impact another person in this world and reveal to this world that we only can do that's how we were created amazing thought rabo side we've heard many great speakers over this over this shabas over this whole weekend and they are all striving to do the exact same thing and that is to inspire us that we should look see what is unique within us so that we can use that character trait we can use that mea within us to impact other yiden everybody is about to do everybody has done that this weekend and we're about to close off with another incredible speaker who is going to strive to do the same thing imagine 13300 yiden sh chabz sh mitzvas influenced by 1300 people from this convention it starts here it starts tomorrow the day after the convention my broa to all of you is that we walk out of this project inspired convention not just inspired but empowered empowered with the knowledge that all it takes to impact another Jewish Nish is already within us may we use this knowledge and inspiration from this weekend to do the aod AES that the rebon sh so desper wants us to do and bring his children closer to him ultimately bringing the
