one of my says that the is a handbook for gratitude and structure man had to show gratitude to someone or something this is three at least three aspects of ha that bring this out the three are one of the things of of the Mitzvah to tell the story is to start with the bad you can't just say you the good stuff happens you have to talk about the slavery another one well one another aspect of that is is what that means one opinion is knew that we were slaves and the other one is that we were over so that's also an aspect that we'll discuss and also it's not just a Mitzvah to say you know we left Egypt but the more you talk about it the better okay it says of all of it when you want to show gratitude to something let's say some you know somebody uh you say you go to the bathroom Say Never compete with M say so we say we go we go to the bathroom okay you know so somebody that didn't have the ability Lau had problems with his system and then it gets better he'll appreciate that cuz he thinks what he didn't have and things were bad and now that they're good we always contrast gratitude is you know now you know how things are out but when things were not as good well normally happens is we get used to it we take it for granted so that's what that's one of most P him and why we have to start with a bad you say you know great how bad was it talk about how bad it was then he appreciate that's one thing the details the more you say the better and really I don't know if we'll get to it so much but Dau for example is details is it's it's going if not this if that would have been enough each thing so like when your wife makes you a meal you can say you can think thanks for the meal she made a meal she really did like 100 different things of the cooking and the amounts and so not necessarily to always say thank you for each thing but when you say you say hasem did this plague and that plague and this thing and that thing you feel much more so whereas we talked about CRI brisk would say What's the difference between there daily mitz for to remember see should have in mind in the morning and the evening what's the difference with with uh with he didn't say this but one of the answer is given at least not if you say but the more you say the better which is unusual in mitv and that's why because there more details of you feel another aspect people that somebody that's humble is is more likely to be grateful somebody that doesn't feel a humble person doesn't feel he has things coming to him that he deserves things so when someone does something for him he feels grateful an arrogant person I deserve just thank you I mentioned that in my past reading of secular intellectuals people like KL Marx and Russo people like that were very arrogant people and they were very ungrateful people they went together Gan very humble people and very grateful people so one I think one God said about all the G he knew even though they're all very they all very strong in the middle of a gratitude because they would always um not feel like deserving of it so in the we say what we saying make ourselves feel bad we're saying you know we're not so great you know we come from we come from we come we come even though normally we don't look him as our father but yeah we come from us clothes like it's of right those are three aspects of the details and the humility and the bad and the good is it's a good one theme that one can have in mind in I
