[Music] I would like to share with you a thought and this is tremendous lesson for day-to-day life. The tells us was able to acquire other people. But let me share with you a secret from he says means he took himself he took himself to the side which means every single one of us we have a choice. We have to choose with our hearts where to take it to the wrong direction or the right direction. Hashem or when it says it means that took himself he chose the path with his free will with the he chose his path to do the wrong thing and argue with Mosheu. Every single day of our lives we have a choice. Are we going to take our hearts? Are we gonna acquire our hearts to do the right thing or to shalom go down the wrong path? Every single one of us has free choice. What does free choice mean? What does means that in your level, in your test, in your situation in life, you choose at this moment. Should I do the wrong thing or the right thing? Now, no two people are the same. It could very much be that your mitzvah is somebody else's a and somebody's a it could be your mitzvah, which is why you can never judge another person. Why is it that we can judge another person? And the answer is because even the Torah is 100% emit but it's not one rule for all. It depends on a person's history where he came from who his parents are what his situation is how strong his desires are for this and not for that. No two people are the same when it comes to desires. No two people are the same when it comes to family background. So ma what happens is every person has a different level test. So the reason why you can't judge other people is because in order to be the judge you have to know facts and you don't know the facts cuz you know what the person is going through. You know if you had a hard day for example let's say you go to school in the morning and you see a guy walks in late you say oh this guy walks in late to shak you don't know could be that morning his wife was not feeling well and he had to take care of the kids at home. So now only you judge him that he didn't have this guy did a tremendous mah that you didn't do. So the reason why you can't judge other people is because you don't know facts. You know where happened today. You know where the guy's coming from. You know what's going on in his mind and his heart. Only Hashem knows facts. That's only Hashem can be the judge. So when it says what a tremendous lesson chose to argue with Mashenu, it's not that he was born to argue with Masherenu. He had a test that nobody had. But he chose to take the wrong path. He is responsible for his actions. Every single one of us is the CEO of our lives. Every person has a different test. But every person can choose how he wants to run his life. How are you gonna acquire your heart today? Are you gonna do the right thing or are you gonna do the wrong thing? Every person has the power and the choice to do the right thing. Nobody else can stop you in the world from accomplishing great things. If you think you can't reach high levels because of your background or because of the family, because of the city that you live in, you're making a tremendous mistake. Kak came from a beautiful background. Kak had a father that was a uncles, cousins, everybody around him. He himself was aar. He was a tremendous person. But look what happened. He chose to pick himself up and do the wrong thing. But what happened? Look at this person. Beautiful background, beautiful city. He was related to all of them. He came from a family of dynasty. What happened to him? The answer is doesn't really make a difference where you come from. It can help who your parents are or what city you live in. Ultimately, it's your heart. You could determine how to live your life. You can choose, do I want to do the right thing or the wrong thing. So is what's the lesson? He chose himself to take responsibility and do the wrong thing. and he messed up. Passed away. He did a tremendous. That's the lesson we can learn from this week's that no matter who you are, where you're from, what your background is, you have a choice to take your heart the wrong way or the right way to choose a good path or a bad path. Every day that you're alive, you have a choice to do the right thing that day. and you're able to accomplish tremendous Torah and this beautiful organization with Denino over here. I have tremendous respect for people like Denino who think of beautiful concepts to build to change the world. Every single one of us has energy in us to do things to build to produce. You know the say the reason why we have to go to work. The reason why Hashem gave a you have to go work hard and sweat in order to bring bread to the table. The reason why Hashem made that in the nature you got to go work to make money because Hashem wanted to show us and symbolize to us that in life humans always have to be working. There's no such thing as just sitting at home and uh doing nothing going on Instagram all day. Every person has to hustle. It's a natural thing for humans to build and build and build. But a person can choose. Should I only build and use my energy and talents of building and producing and working hard? Should I only use it for wealth and for and for work? Or should I also use it for even more important things? That is Torah. Should I use my energy of producing or working only on work and getting wealth on my job? or should I use it for even more important things that is to build yeshivot build start a shul give lectures start a lecture in your house build organizations so over here uses his tremendous talents of producing look at this guy he thought of a genius idea people unfortunately is getting out of style let's be honest it's getting out of style so he thought to himself how can we do it so people can start saying he built this beautiful castle called has thousands of people already following you. Can you imagine the thousands of people are saying it's one human being that just thought outside the box how can I help this world? How can I make Hashem happy? How can I produce? How can I build? How can I change this world for the better? I don't want to be selfish. I do see you all. Thank you. See you. No, we thought outside the box. How can I help? How can I share the wealth? When you love so, when you love something so much, you want to share with other people. When a person gets engaged, one of the first things you do when you get engaged is right away you tell your friends, I'm engaged. I'm engaged. Why is it the first thing you do? Because you love it so much, you're happy. You want to share with other people from loves. He loves us so much. He just has to share it. The concept, you got to share this concept with other Jews, all the Jews in the world. He's doing this tremendous job. For all those that have follow this organization, good for you. Round of applause for doing but even more important tell your friends about it. It's very important to get that message out there. There are millions of Jews across the world and now Hashem gave us a oral look at it. It's called social media. Social media is a it's a blessing. At the same time it's a a curse. You got to be very careful. Let's use the part of it. We over here we have an opportunity to share this concept of with all the Jews. Tell them about it. Share the link with them. The website the WhatsApp videos. Tell them about it. Tell them all it takes is two three minutes. Come on. How many times a day do you go on the news anyways? How many times do you waste? How about you wait spend five minutes just reading? What does it take already? This small five minutes a day could get you into you're going to hug and kiss. Thank you so much for introducing to me this concept called it changed my and my thank you so much for all the listeners and remember is a fundamental thing that have fundamental are only afterwards they were invented by we follow them but there are some that are fundamental is a fundamental mitzvah it's one of the cores of Judaism in the every single week there's a to do the twice and then read the and some even sayi it's harder but forum thank you so much for listening [Music]
