good evening welcome everyone to this
very special
evening this the first annual yard site
event for Toby gashin Al shalom it's
been dedicated by the gwiin ab off lacer
perk of All Families memory of toas
mosha Ali alyah
amen it's being presented by the kazak
organization and the Young Israel West
Hemstead clar Klein adult education
committee and of course we want to thank
the Young Israel West Hemstead for being
such a place of Torah and and in the
community for so many decades he such a
um a role model for for for a sh one of
the leading shes in the entire in entire
New York and entire America and tonight
we're going to have the great honor to
hear
from DOA goas
and RAB Gita is going to give some
special opening
remarks and I think to give an
introduction for tonight um if you look
at any successful business company
organization they all have a mission
statement so if someone would ask me
what is the mission statement of of Mrs
Toby gashin I think I think you could
see it in four short stories so the
first the first thing is is that if
anyone go to indd Glad or any supermarke
and queens and you would see like why
are there no more why are there no
papers left so one of the reasons one of
the secrets one of the reasons could be
is because is because to is because Toby
took seven copies of the paper because
she took for her friends and the
neighbors and the friend that no one
thought about so she cared about every
every individual and and you could tell
a lot about a person about the last
words they say on on Earth so what was
so some people then what their what
their last words on Earth what they
might be that they they say oh this is
uh this the the Swiss bank accounts
where's the money where where's how much
stocks do they have and what was her
last words that she said she said take
care of dad take care of her of her
husband so she cares about she cared
about family and and um when she lived
in with my grandfather in Jamaica States
one of the highlights of the year she
marked on the calendar was the was was
the clothing Drive where she where where
for like 15 hours a day for a week she
would she would she would work day and
night organizing the clothing and that
that clothing obviously was it was a
fundraiser to support AEL to support
Israel and and of course she cared about
Jamaica State's community and of course
she loved the westa community for all
the years that she lived in West
Hemstead and um on yum shal she would
like get at 5:00 a.m. in the morning and
she would help out Patty gendler and the
whole team it was so of course she cared
about community and and last but not
least she she cared of course um was
that I look back on a text message that
she sent me she sent me and she she was
talking about
the it's about the singles and she said
this is a quote she said it's a crisis
and things need to be done to improve
the situation so she cared about the
Jewish community at large so she cared
about individual she cared about family
she cared about the the her own
community and she cared about the Jewish
community at large so I think that if
you would put a mission statement for
for her it would be that in two words
she'll be she cared she cared about she
cared about every single person and it
wasn't just uh it it wasn't just it
wasn't just like a statement but she
really believed in it she cared about
every individual she cared about family
she cared about every single person in
the Jewish Community entire world and um
something of course that she cared so
much about was was that was that her
grandchildren my my brother and my S
were involved in the kazak organization
and whenever we have a kak sheir in West
Hemstead she would she would she would
tell me Robbie print out small flyers I
would hand it out to my friends and
encourage them to come and she was very
big into Jewish um education and and
which which kazak focuses on with um
after school programs in 15 different
locations and um a special division to
help transfer kids from public school to
Yeshiva and um and and and somebody who
who who she really cared about and she
really admired was was uh was Rabbi
Galler that that for for so many years I
I remember back um when I was a kid that
that we would stay over at my
grandparents house for for shabas and
she was she would encourag you have to
go to you have to go to the youth minion
G is leading it and and and even in West
Hamstead the Highlight every shabas meal
on shabas day she would say rabag said
this during the drusa and she was just
smiling and she really admired Gala and
of course ra Gala is somebody who
himself cares about the individual and
about family and about Jewish community
and West Hamstead and about Jewish
community and as a whole and it is our
honor to call upon have a
go thank you very very much for those
kind words unnecessary but kind words a
few weeks ago and Robbie asked me she
said uh he said it would be an honor for
you to give introductory remarks at the
IDE cheer I thought to myself those
words are appropriate because the word
honor um truth is for me to be able to
speak about Toby Al Shalom is an honor
because she was a person who truly gave
C to every single person that she came
across a a tremendous amount of Cabo to
everyone that she met and uh it's a
privilege tonight to be able to give uh
some remarks in her honor and uh as I
always say to Charles and the family
children the grandchildren I can't
imagine still the pain of your loss
magnitude is unbelievable but uh suffice
to say that she's still very much the
part of all of our lives every day every
week every month she thought of all the
time her sweetness her kindness is truly
Unforgettable and I hope that's a source
of comfort to all of
you the
great now he was a person who was a
um and a
great would see people all times of the
day and night and one time a came to the
re and said I'm having financial
troubles I can't pay my bills family to
feed things are very challenging I need
some help financially the rebit said to
himself he said you know I
recall you have a a cousin a second
cousin who's a very wealthy person this
is an easy one you're in need I know
your cousin I can reach out to them it's
a slam dunk so he called the cousin to a
meeting the cousin came in and uh he
said you know I seeing you again your
second cousin who you know very well
going through some challenging times
could use some help some support from
you please be
generous the second cousin he took out
his checkbook and wrote a check and gave
it to the rabbit and said here please my
pleasure to help and the rabit Lo saw
the check and he said he has seven
children the L family to feed and I told
the needs are great no maybe you can do
something more to help your
cousin the fellow said well respect to
the Reb it's only my second cousin you
know it's not like my sibling or my
child it's my second cousin I I give a
nice amount but you know I give other
people it's my second
cousin theab said he said let me ask you
a question you D in Shak this morning
sure
this afternoon
absolutely tonight of course when you
DAV what did you say in the first
braa he said I said what everyone says
the same words and what is it say in
there what's that braa called it's
called the BR of the forefathers and
what do you say in the BR ofos the reab
asked him he said you know you uh say
Hashem answer myos on behalf of Abraham
and
the forefathers or the three
fathers the rebi said to this fellow he
said can't you question can you imagine
in sh if when you
DAV and you invoke Hashem listen to my
prayers in the in the Merit
of andov they are your three forefathers
and I say Hashem you know the truth is
Hashem I you know this guy's a nice guy
but he's my great great great great
great great great great
grandchild yeah I don't know the guy
that well we're not so close we speak a
couple of times a
day what would you think about that so
the fellow I'd be horrified everyone
knows that if you want to have your TR
accepted you
invoke I'm related to the
great the re said he said to him just
like like the AOS don't say about any
one of us it's such a distant distant
relative what right do they have to
invoke our help what right do you have
to say it's only my second cousin
whether it's AOS thousands of years ago
or your sibling or your child or your
second cousin were one clout we one
doesn't matter what the relationship
we're always there for each other we
treat one another as if we're the
closest of family thousands of years
away or only two generations away it
doesn't matter doesn't matter needless
to say the fellow took out his checkbook
and wrote a second much larger check but
I realized the message of the great Amon
I've
read when I saw this story I thought of
Toby Al sh of course spoke so
beautifully about her incredible
affinity and love really special unique
love for her family but
truthfully she treated everyone like
family if you were a child her
grandchild her husband her friend
somebody who just met a few weeks ago no
matter who you were she cared about
everyone like they were the closest
relative to her her kindness knew to No
Limits it's such a unique Mila that so
few can
replicate and the year side the time of
course we have something we need to
learn from from a person out of all of
her amazing amazing qualities for me
personally and for many of us here
Gather in the room manure that's a
tremendous meia to learn from no matter
who came to her for help matter who
approached her in the store on the
street in SHO was kind and patient and
caring for everyone because to Toby
second cousin AOS imos thousands of
years away a generation away or one step
removed or family or all part of K
Israel it's all that matters it's truly
incredible Meda we hope and pray that
hasem we all continue to learn from her
incredible example of
AAS truly loving every single Jew just
like they're part of her immediate
family and that's was hopefully continue
to give her and alah and Shay for many
many many years to
come when rabie showed me the flyer for
tonight and it spoke about the idea of
positivity first reaction was well that
speaks beautifully about Toby always
rainy day was always sunny everything
was always positive but then he showed
me the name of the speaker for tonight
who I want to say I just met for the
first time last
February and when I stood downstairs
last February introducing her by gold
waser I said the very same thing I'm
going to say tonight which is that
his his Radiance is contagious when you
meet him you shake his hand you just
greet by gold waser he oozes positivity
it's truly contagious it's something
something so special and unique that I
believe all those who encounter him it
just you can't help but be inspired by
his we said before but his tremendous
love for life and
forish for Torah and for people and we
are so fortunate and blessed tonight
what a tremendous cover for all of us
here in our scho our community tonight
to be affected and Infused by his
tremendous
without further Ado and making it more
uncomfortable
tonight it's our cover please
rise truthfully to come and to listen to
the R I wish he would have continued a
little bit
longer it is so interesting that Eli
said
I remained alone the only Prophet the
question is we know
that hid over
100 well how couldi say I was the only
Novi theot says that ELO Novi had the
singular way he had the language he had
Thea he had the ability to get the m
message of hem across to the masses when
I hear RAB
G it's Unique it's you singular not
everybody not everybody can do it we are
that the does have it and that we are
all n from
him in good health we come today
to further pay
tribute and the earth side
of a great great woman and and not only
for her family for her wonderful
children for her
grandchildren but it's for Community
it's for friends it's for people she
know for people she didn't know she was
a light in this world a light that kept
on Shining further and stronger as the
years went on you just remember that
face you remember the eyes you remember
that
light the malim the great malim when he
died and left this world so everybody
was inconsolable they were crying such a
great light to leave this
world the following was said as words of
zikaron there were some people in the
forest and it grew night grew dark
outside each one had a candle to light
their way through the
forest the candles eventually began to
go out and then suddenly the one who was
holding the last candle that was still
lit it also went out and the man started
to
cry they came over to him and they said
my my friend you knew that eventually
the candle's not going to last forever
it will go
out he said yes I know but I thought
that we would be out of the forest
before that light went
out
Toby we thought she's going to bring
first
Messiah and she's going to stay with us
until
then there were other plans from
shamayim they needed her up there they
needed her the work in
Shay the entire family should go in her
should remember her way should continue
her
MIT her presents her gifts all the
things that she
did it should be a zus for your family
should be Aus for your
community should be a for CLA Israel
especially during these trying
times I cannot begin without saying a
word about
my Robie he is
indefatigable he continues to CLA Israel
like nobody that I know he's a y he is
there's nobody like him he's got a one
trck mind CLA he doesn't get off it I
just want to say on him one little
praise small praise everybody knows
comes to be
we all stand up everybody in the show we
stand up the
great he says why you stand up
for what's special about the I said as
stand up for ash
why he says something fascinating a lot
of times in different shs they have the
Min that they
collect
so they collect the money Hashem has all
of the ashir the person that goes around
the the one that works for the cloud
that's why we stand up in his honor in
her honor the person that does the
Mitzvah Mitzvah Robbie I tell you from
my heart when you walk into a room
people should
stand We Begin uh as a big topic very
big topic positivity keeping the right
Hasa knowing how to frame things world
events things that go
on happened to be by the
Elder he came from a distant
land he heard the cry he heard screaming
in the in the city he didn't know who it
was all of a sudden Omar he
said it's not in my house I know it I
know for
sure good morning check it
out question is asked by several of
theim the great ra of ly asked the
question how did he know how was he sure
that it didn't come from his
house fascinating answer the reason is
is because
H made sure that the people in his house
were ruggle they were smart they didn't
cry they didn't scream they knew that
all the different mat him all the
different situations in life they had to
keep it together
they had to make sure that they realize
that everything is
from when the sun is shining in the time
when the Sun goes down and it's dark
outside we will praise hem H knew that
would not be their reaction even if the
tar even if the challenge was in their
house they would not scream they would
not cry they would DAV they would would
pray they would contemplate his bodus
they would be deep in thought but they
would not scream and so too for all of
CLA Isel and especially in the days that
we are right now this is our
reaction prayer coming
together to be each other that is the
single greatest power that will help in
ER Isel that will help protect the
that will help bring back the
hostages take each one safe and sound
what will help positivity what will help
praying to hasem
mitvah all the things all the learning
in the all the things that we do that's
what greatly helps I have to share with
you I got a call on AR Shabbat it was
unbelievable there was a couple that
called me they have a son two sons in
fact in the army they called me up in
the beginning rebi could you say some to
heal him could you keep them in mind we
want to give you their names I said okay
they gave me their names they gave me
other names and they said please I said
I promise you I promise you are my word
I get a
call he was in the tank Kobe
Kobe the son of KH he was in the tank
the tank was hit it began to fill up
with smoke they couldn't go because they
couldn't get to the hatch to open it up
there was no air didn't know what to do
all of a sudden they realized they were
being shot at on the top they could not
go out the top of the tank because it
was
SAS they had no idea what they could do
all all of a sudden from nowhere was not
supposed to be on that particular
stretch of land another tank joins Fires
at the one that was firing at Kobe's
tank was able for a moment to create a
diversion the Commander in the tank
hurried out went around opened the hatch
was m nees saved their lives the guys
inside on fortunately when they were
running they got hit
shrapnel so they went to a ruins and
they stayed there for a while until they
could people from the sahal could come
and save them and take them to an
ambulance that took them to two
different hospitals and they were able
successfully to get everything out one
person had some uh in his back they had
to operate but I got the Beautiful news
that they're going to
say I said you must take you must take a
picture of that
b they said Rabbi if you tell us to do
it we'll do it but it's going to be on
chabas okay in that case you don't have
to take
it the unbelievable thing is I get a
call this
morning as soon as Kobe can go back in
he's going to to go right back exactly
where he was from the beginning they
just asked me could you keep up theot I
said I'll keep it up from my side but
I'm not sure that's exactly what was the
uh the deciding factor here that's
positivity that is looking in the
correct lens because if a person does
not look with the correct lens they look
with their own feeling they look with
their own perception they could be far
off from what is correct
just like you and I have to
have in all that hem says in the Torah
in everything that is written in all
the so too
says each and every one of
us we have to believe in ourselves in
our own Co it's extremely important that
we frame things in the right way that we
realize what Hashem wishes us to see I
could be scared I could be
upset however if I say before I go to
sleep or when I wake up in the
morning hasem I trust you my spirit is
in your hands I'm with
you Hashem you're charge of my life I
have complete
complete that whatever is going to
happen and it should always be good for
all of Cl Israel I trust
it simple Marshall everyone we're going
to AR Israel sooner or later hopefully
sooner everybody we're going right I
want to know if anybody before you go on
the plane it's a big trip before you go
on a plane do you interview the pilot do
you uh ask the pilot for their
experience you get their resume you see
where they went to school how many years
they've been flying what their ability
is in the in air and if they've ever
been trained you know and did you see
them did you talk with them did you make
sure they're up that day had a good
night's sleep before uh you you
interview I mean basically you're in
their hands for how many hours it will
take I went to Australia it's a long
time to be in somebody's hands right no
we trust
them the same thing when we come to hem
in our life no worries no
upset Hashem I put myself in your hands
take good care of me everybody we have
that amuna we have that that hasem is
watching and see L to each and every one
of us I know it's an interesting idea a
person never knows what their perception
is Rev galinsky was once walking past an
institution an institution
people neb they didn't have it together
not Bish mentally so there were two
people in the institution was in Europe
and uh to yeen they call reab reab come
to the fence come come over here they're
incarcerated in the institution they are
NE inmates they can't get out so so he
goes over he says yeah says reab it is
the biggest Sim that we get to see
somebody Jewish there's nobody no one
from B Israel in the institution nobody
at all it's an
unbelievable that we can talk with you
we can hear aish v a Jewish word
oh he begins to speak to them and he
says you should know the reason that
we're here is really false reasons
people put us in here they had us locked
up we are sayane we are perfect like
everybody else it's raus there's nobody
to talk to could you be M on our
behalf with Kinski
said I got to help them they're in the
institution he begins to take down the
name and who they are and the address
and everything else and he says okay
I'll be Madel I'll try one of them said
well Rabbi please you got to hurry up
because every minute that I'm in here
you're holding back the Gula you're
holding back the
Redemption reab Glen says what do you
mean he says well I'm the
Messiah and you see that as long as I'm
in here I can't save CLA
Isel R galinsky began to see all of a
sudden the other guy said he is not I'm
telling you he is not I know that he
isn't he is not Messiah R galinsky said
how do you know he's not mhia maybe he
is the guy says because I'm
Theon sometimes person has to keep the
clear perception Who Am I who is hasem
we have a certain amount of ability we
have
great great we all do each one of us but
we have to know the way that we utilize
it and that we ask everything thing we
askem every bit of that we have when
we're we know it's
hem only with are
we very fascinating idea if you take a
look in the paraa there is something
that is uh for me one of the most uh
moving parot in the Torah one of the
most
mik so what happened yud y right Yehuda
said listen bamin is a problem if we're
going to take bamin down here it's going
to be a problem my father is gone
through a lot yobu went through so much
he went through all kinds of things in
his the Y was taken from him and begins
to say please just do a SW swap let me
stay let me stay let me not take bamin
please please do a swap so he says the
following I took
responsibility for B I took
responsibility I would like to ask
everybody The Unbelievable members of
The Young
Israel him everybody how's it possible
to take AAS
Egypt
parro locked up a couple of yeden
walking around in the and he's going to
take responsibility no matter what
happens he going to bring bamin how
could he take responsibility how could
he take AAS that's like I would come and
I would say take AAS uh whatever needs
to be done right now in the Army I I'm
going to cover all the
expenses can't take
fascinating
fascinating the ab ner says when a
person takes Aus they are
given a person that will take
responsibility will have
Satay more than they could do through
natural means just by taking AAS you
think about it a lot of things happen we
start to wonder about could I take a
they need a minion uh can you come to
minion uh what time minion seven I tell
you the
truth sometimes I sleep in I'm not sure
I can give you my word on that uh can
you help us out we want to go uh I don't
know if I'm going to be in town that day
I could be I could call you up take a
take responsibility the person that
takes responsibility they will be Z to
get every everything in this world they
will
be they're going to be successful
because they took you take something
like uh things that we want to help out
in ER Israel who doesn't think
constantly about the
hostages take a hostage a baby separate
that from her husband she
said I'll stay in prison don't separate
me don't free me I'll stay right here
he it's tremendous I'll stay here they
went
letter closenberg Reb
saidas previous closenberg
rebas is worse than the Nazis you can
take a look at his s
and I don't have to comment on the Reb's
words they wouldn't permit him they
would not permit her she is the one that
when she came out stared in the face of
her captors and gave them a look that
everybody in the entire world saw she
didn't wave goodbye she didn't smile she
stared straight in their face and gave
them a look as in that alone they should
all be freed so you think how could I
help I want to help the hostages I want
to help I want to do my part the r schle
and I were just talking before about
various ways that possibly a person
could help but you think but but the
hostages but it's the thing quar and
this place and the diplomats and all
kind of thing you know what I tell you
the truth I would rush the doors I'd
come in I would love to go to the
negotiating meeting I have a few things
I would like to say they may not want to
hear me but I sure would like to say a
few things but what could we
do
what take a
we may see it in a different way years
ago thear Zar
Nikolai made a
decree took children hostages put them
into the army from a young age never
returned them home and every once in a
while they would do their riches they
would do their evil deeds and grab
somebody from the street there was one
woman in am Leno a widow she had a
little boy and she didn't have money she
was
forced to go from door to door to raise
money to get money to feed to put
clothing on the little boy and she was
walking
around the Army came they had their
instructions to bring a number of the
boys back they saw this mother easy Mark
with the boy they grabbed him out of her
hands and that was
it what is she going to do he's done
he's hostage a hostage that may never
return
so she cried to
herself however that chabas the great
sadic reel salant the father of the
musim movement came to
town she don't know who
salant is she's more of a simple person
but when she saw the P when she
saw shining out of his face she realized
that this is AA this is somebody great
and she ran over to him and she said
please sadik help me my child and she
began to tell him what
happened salant listen listened to her
story and
said okay I will try whatever I can do
when R salant takes AAS he takes AAS he
takes responsibility it's not words it's
responsibility Friday night beautiful
ding Friday night everybody they were so
enthusiastic ding together with reel
salant nothing bigger than that in the
world in every everybody was excited
everybody was singing and was beautiful
R salant didn't say a word he waited for
the right time shabas morning ah
Asos everybody came and everybody wanted
to be together with him everyone watch
him and everyone to get next to him and
sit next to him shake his hand they made
a beautiful Kish for him after in one of
the big homes and R salant in his honor
everybody body came he made
Kish everybody heard his Kish after the
Kish he stood up they realized he wanted
to say some words so he said to them you
are gim remember re salant never raised
his voice never said a word that wasn't
beautiful pure nice
gentle
derit he said you are all goov
you are
all
murderers each one of
you each one of you a kidnapper and he
began to explain you're careful you eat
matura highest level highest level it's
got to be certain you won't e
[Applause]
it you're looking with the loop like
it's a diamond to make sure even though
100% it's koser anyhow but you pule it
up 10 times oh you want to be
sure every don't cause pain that you're
not so careful in h Mitzvah that you're
not watching so
much and when they kidnap somebody and
they sell
him most and it's found in his hand the
guy has the death sentence that you're
not so careful about oh other mes you
choose and you pick well I want to tell
you something re salant does not remain
in a city with kidnappers with thieves
with rug I am leaving
shabas he walks out he leaves the city
outside the
city they were in an uproar you got a
guest like Rus so salant and he
leaves it's not simple
somehow they were able to make the right
connections and they got the boy
back only when they went to tell salant
outside the city that the boy was back
did he agree to come back when he came
back the mother of the boy was waiting
for him with the little boy when risel
salant came there she fell at his feet
risel salant asked some ladies please
pick her up this is not how R salant
is
m i could help I can't help there's a
certain amount we could do there's a
certain amount we can't
do a person can do a tremendous amount
we are of hasem We Are
I can't say in another person everybody
knows we know the you've learned it
probably doing more learning than I am
but you learn right not allowed to say
it but you know what says why I can't
sayar not only because it's not nice
because each one of us is
aim is the image of God I'm going to say
lanar on you h
I
say I
say every person has a little bit of
Hashem inside of us that is the kaak
that we have been granted from Hashem
that coak a positivity of the way to
look at others of the way to look at
ourselves is what guides us through our
entire life that a person should never
allow things to get them down
never allow themselves
Toom to be never to think in any way

oner each one of us has the ability in
one moment this marriage I want you to
know there's certain marriages that okay
but
this who says who says
Rim beloved friends so beloved friends
is on a different level everyone
is Hashem came to each one of our Hashem
blessed
us the
great when it came to a wedding during
the month of Alo he was afraid to look
up was under the when they called him
for he used to look down he was afraid
to look up is there there is nothing
that is beyond nothing that is beyond a
person's ability in this world world I
would like to quote to you for just one
moment from
the from the says that no matter where a
person is at in life no matter what an
individual is currently going through
whether they are going through a time of
great Sim whether they are going through
a time of
challenge sadness whether it's a time of
riches whether it's a time of poverty
whether it's a time of OB ET whether
somebody is bothering them whether they
have some source of aasish of pain in
their life he says there is not a period
of time does not matter what it is that
a person cannot see the wonders of
Hashem if they will open up their
eyes no matter what the time no matter
when it is no matter what the
circumstances are are no matter how
bleak a person merely needs to open up
their eyes I would like to uh comment
just about the amuna factor in being
positive uh a lot a lot of good examples
about uh positivity a lot of examples
that are uh important on basically in
every area of life when a person thinks
good when when an individual knows
that is for us the Y says that the
reasons why things happen in our life is
that a person should be misal that we
should pray so sometimes I think maybe
this is above prayer maybe I'm not that
great of a d maybe I don't say all theas
like I should maybe I'm not the holiest
person I did a few
AAS few not not me personally other
people do have ARS I don't but just a
know that there is no in sh a person
could do a virus everybody does person
could do it their ding is their ding
their is their rebellious F said one
time if you take a look and you see I
don't know uh in west henstead but on
con Island Avenue uh there's a few
blocks you go out during a certain hour
of the night you got all the the carpets
out you got rebellious faith says you
don't know what their prayers are doing
you don't know what their prayers are
doing imagine the from B Isel from us a
person prays the doing that we do is so
great the doing that we do can make the
difference in CLA Israel the doing we do
can make a difference in our own life a
lot of times we say
what's my prayers going to help maybe
I'll go to the r and I'll ask him maybe
I'll go to somebody who's great and I'll
ask him my's what's my prayer we say
exactly the opposite say it say your
own says doesn't matter make it up say
what you want talk to Hashem go out say
to Hashem everything that you want and
express it but express it with
positivity say hasem I know you're the k
you can do it you have the
ability is the hand of ever too short
never Hashem can make a way out of
nowhere Hashem can help even at the time
when we think that it is an
impossibility that's the amuna that we
live through life that's the ability
that we have to call upon Hashem in
every single circumstance no matter
where we're at uh interesting shil theam
says what happens if you have a person
that doesn't have money a poor man lenu
everybody should have a d hoer a lot lot
of
money poor person comes over he wants to
borrow $1,000
$2,000 so he goes to a person who has
means and he says could I borrow $2,000
the guy looks at him he he probably
doesn't have $10 in his pocket he wants
a borrow
$1,000 someone
asked Are you allowed to borrow or you
allowed to lend you allowed to lend a
person that money what happens if he
can't pay
back you can't set him up he can't pay
back he becomes someone that doesn't pay
back we have names for that but are you
allowed
toer says it depends when but AI a
person could why because there's nothing
that says that the person that's today's
poor man or poor woman tomorrow they
could be very wealthy tomorrow they
could have tremendous amount of money
who's to say our am and our is positive
we take every single thing that happens
in life you have a child a child grows
we're positive about it we only say the
correct things that will bring him or
her to the higher level it's so
important
you know a little girl showed me her
report card uh I got to tell you uh
report cards we could save it from a
different time but standardized testing
and standardized grading and you know
it's aoo by itself the little girl came
to show me the report card in sh it was
the cutest thing she I don't know how
old she is she showed me the report card
so instead of the A's and the B's they
put smiley faces
a beautiful thing little smiley faces
like you get three smiley faces I I was
I wish I got some smiley
face we won't go into it but
anyhow she shows it to me so she says I
got three smiley faces in that area but
I only got two smiley faces in the other
area I didn't know whether Sheed that it
meant that
she didn't get the grade that she could
have gotten I didn't say anything I was
quiet when she went out with the older
brother I asked the father does she
understand what it is if you got two or
three he said you know I was hoping that
she didn't and she
doesn't positivity that child does their
best they deserve four bring it four
that child give him five you me two your
brain you you know thinking not
everybody's Einstein not everyone's be
ke AER not not everyone's rabits and kvi
what does it mean when a person's s
positive you're going to be
great right each person according to
their own abilities according to their
own situation according to their own mat
that's positivity that's when we look at
everybody and we see their own cus we
see the ability that they have to bring
something out in themselves that is
great I would like to say that uh if you
take a look at ysep Yakov aino Yakov
aino no greater example in the entire
world than both forun for positivity
look what happened y look where he's at
look where he spent his time did he say
one word did he say one word in when he
was reunited with yakobin no he's living
in MIT he was put into slavery he was
put into the board they were going to
kill him he was saved he was not mugal
to be a slave to the isim he was not to
be in
the the impurity of he was not believe
me you don't take it s like that out of
the B medes and put him into into depth
somewhere
yob all the time yov went through all
the he just want a few moments peace and
Tranquility Hashem give me a little bit
easy time give me a little downtime no
Hashem said it's not meant for you look
what he went through during his life
look at this son that he had to be
separated with all the years and they
came wild animal L I have to think about
that that's the thought that's the that
yobu should have all the years
unbelievable when finally they were all
meeting back together so you know you
know the story what happens is y falls
on his shoulder yobu falls on his
shoulder y cries yob
says question all asked why daa at this
moment specifically at this moment he
had to
sayma tell us that yobu was m sh he had
complete faith in whatever happened he
said all the 22 years I was in s the 22
years I was burning inside 22 years but
now was revealed that there was
a that there was a reason for it a m
there is no happen stance there's no
just something happened coincidence
there is no coincidence in the world
everything
is and he said now it was revealed to me
that Joseph was a m that he's going to
save CL Isel he's going to save the
world now I can understand so that's the
reason he said kishma because when we
say kishma we cover our eyes we realize
that we do not know what happens in the
world we realize that everything is
badma we realize that we don't have a
SOA we don't have a grasp of all that is
going on and maybe when we cover our
eyes it's also
dark darkness we need to have great
faith however when he saw all the that's
when he chose to sayma because it all
came together and listen listen to the
words
Hashem
El the Divine attribute of strict
Justice it's all one yobu said it's all
one that's why he wanted to be
M at that very moment the same in our
own lives am Isel goes through this now
I had a lady wonderful lady I met her in
the Rockland Community College they
brought me up for a a special uh series
as a a woman and the lady uh very little
background very Jewish but little
background in terms of Jewish Education
and she keeps in touch she is learning
little by little the woman
grandmother she is taken with the war in
Israel she cannot get away I had told
her you cannot cannot be peeled to the
device you can't watch it's too much you
can't do it it's every day she's worried
about and she's worried about it I try
to text back I'm not great in the
texting but I try to text back to give
her some words of however we should know
that even the time that we are living
through now is a time of
greatness we don't even realize the
things that are going on in this world
we don't know how much we are moving
closer to the time of
we don't know what theia look like right
now we're hearing from every side nees
my nees from every my nees of the of the
hostages that are there and the families
there's no greater families in the world
look at CLA Israel look at them anyone
would crack anyone would be crying and
on the floor and they're out being M
other people it's a
it's an amazing thing so one of the
organizations and there are so many that
are doing unbelievable work uh I saw a
picture of Ari giving out in the uh in
the
troops zaka organization that helps in
the times that are not so happy of
bringing uh all that is necessary to cev
you
and to ensure the sanctity of anybody
that was uh n to make sure that every
little bit is uh taken in and there is
nothing that belong to anybody any of
the kados that is left behind and it's
given the proper Covenant proper dignity
so there was another member of the zaka
organization that was called to
kibuts
to do what they call the removal of all
the debris and things that might have
any
trace of the koshin he worked there for
days and days and days came home one
night after days of watching seeing the
scene that a person should never see in
their whole life he sees it every day
nightmare replaying every day
every day one night he goes to sleep and
he has a
dream no one to interpret it a
woman who they brought to Kev Isel that
day comes to him and says there are four
other people that were
nem and they are there in the same spot
where you got me and they are waiting to
be brought to C
is he wakes up cold
sweat
ah dreams speak for all sorts it doesn't
mean anything after this guy what he saw
in his eyes he shouldn't dream he's not
going to have nightmares he's not going
to have Terror at night of course he's
going to have it went back to sleep
disregarded it
next night didn't tell anybody next
night same
dream the woman comes to him and said
