i was once checking out a school for my
son and i go into the school building
and i go over to the first kid i see i
said tell me what are the guys like in
the school
the old losers
okay what's the food like
it's gross it's inedible
what are the rabbis like the rabbis
they're so boring they don't care about
the kids i said thank you very much i
moved on to the next kid
excuse me what are the guys like in this
school
they're awesome they're such great kids
what's the food like
it's delicious every single day the food
is so good
okay what are the rabbis like the rabbis
they're unbelievables they're so
interesting to listen to they care about
every single kid i said thank you very
much i walked out and i'm thinking two
kids the same food same rabbis same
friends and totally opposite views how's
that possible
the way one is inside that is how we
view things
it is human nature when someone isn't
he views everything negatively it's like
if someone looks at somebody and he says
hey that guy's ketchup on his shirt and
he looks at somebody else and he says
that guy also has ketchup on his shirt
and he looks at a third person he says
that guy has ketchup on his face until
he takes off his glasses and he sees
that he has ketchup on his glasses
when somebody is positive
the food's great the rabbi is great when
someone is in bitter everything is
negative
when the jews came tomorrow the verse
says
they came tomorrow and they couldn't
drink the water for it was bitter in
this simple sense it means that the
water was bitter and they couldn't drink
it but the cuts forever translates
homolytically the jews were bitter and
that's why the water tasted better
instead of one living his whole life
condemning and complaining and seeing
false with everything else
the easier way and the healthier way is
to fix himself internally to work on
himself then everything is positive
be better or be bitter
