I'm going to start off the program I'm
going to ask everyone blooming to come
up to something perverter
I used to care for standing behind this
whole organization
as a hakadoma
boys
standing at a very special mymodo
massive special
we all know that uh
maybe still wanted to give the Toyota
foreign
even even
only going over so we can only
see for ourselves what a special mind we
do massive we are in now and it might be
the master I just want to tell over a
short story that I saw on this language
was not that celled Mendel zubustine
from uh from from Montreal he said that
it was years ago and he was making a
Hanukkah event in Brussels
and um even though he was coming from a
certain organization but he collaborated
with their Nash from there in Brussels
and his uncle
was going back to the river so he asked
his uncle to be made of
um
about the event and that he collaborated
with with danaje
his uncle came back
the the his uncle came back on Tuesday
on Shabbos he received and expressed
expressed mail from the rabbit with
acknowledged the event and Debbie said
they had special
from the fact that he did with the Nash
over there so he was very happy that his
uncle gave over the letter so fast he
came from bustles to New York and gave
it over before Shabbos and he already
got back and expressed letter from the
dead
his uncle came back he thanked his uncle
for doing such a quick job and they're
giving over to the devil so quick
I think his uncle became pale and said
I'm very sorry but I forgot to give him
the letter
so he says that was my turn to become
pale
and I realized
it was
already pre sent me the letter back
without me before even receiving the
letter and writing the great that he had
from dhanasha that came together by
actors together with him so he said that
was a Learning lesson for me for my
entire life to realize how much that
I've appreciates
so no question that this is this is this
is an amazing thing before Martin Taylor
I just want to say that I felt that that
it's Unique and the specialty that when
women Come Together by artists and that
is
which we find something
um
withdrawal and cyber connected to hakil
that is ever points out that while actus
is such a great kayak and it even has a
kayak of like it says but the de la
vlogger that
is
even if it's against
nothing else can accomplish but
nevertheless since we are looking to be
macability is so if we want to take it
the Primus Services
connected to Toyota
when it's through Toyota and it's with
Toyota so that's something special and
unique
that are always doing that imparting
Toyota to the the daylight soil and
that's also what hakel is
Hashem and like I said that deliver
writes that
it's it's it's so important that that
um
foreign
to utilize every single opportunity the
game leads to his dominance and to
create opportunities
so this is something that are always
doing so it's it's it fits in so well
with this Hashem
and as the devil says that this is the
way that we come to be vocabulous so
um
foreign
call up a
known individual who is um
you know even foreign
and I also want to say a special address
[Music]
convention
in other words I don't want to jump the
gun ahead of the
to some degree
the msrave him to the banana
is the mechanical in other words it's
not
said that are not just they're even
maybe the art of goblin and maybe
they're even together the hairstyle
together of arvos they take it straight
behind the Kim of banana
foreign
okay
so the meditation of banana
we're all familiar with it
and just Hazard so to speak what was the
how did the conversation go
so they wish there understood that
sometimes
um we're quick and we over promise and
we under deliver
so he wanted arvos right
but do we mean it and is there going to
be a king
so he wanted arvos so the Eden were
thinking what type of viruses
neighborhood want
so the first thought was Avis
today Mr wasn't happy didn't accept it
so they offered higher you know what is
Rael
foreign
so then the Eden went the opposite so
they said the fine so benign not even
but they know and that was the that was
the arvos that sat by the abistor in
order
so we have to wait the madrish lives by
us in a positive even
in other words
you know that if there's him
there if we if we're going to give Torah
to children and children are going to be
involved in China there's going to be a
cue
a lot of people understand this madrish
the pastors is part of the nikuda of old
of of bringing the kids
in other words this is that this is
besides reliving the moment of our Sinai
which was everyone
this is the Olive the title where's my
order this is that if
cities helps us understand
that everything exists in its passion as
they give even
but then everything also exists inside
us and I think more than just cities and
the rep is Toyota you have very often
have it ever helped us and look at
things instead of compartmentalizing and
say this is this person this is this
person I'll be saying it was my father
banane was my child
over here
so
a person is made up
a person is a structure
we're all structures
we have different parts and the parts
coming together and operating in unison
is what creates a person the Adam which
the cities calls
[Music]
the many parts
are divided there's the lower parts of
the person which is the dragline
there's the highest parts of the person
which is
and then there's higher than the rice
higher than the rice
casser
in avoidas Hashem what does that mean
you have the way I can serve the
abistair with soil which is like the
defeat there isn't a lot of thought it's
a motor skill it's a function
you have the way a person can serve the
English
and you have the way a person can serve
the image or even higher than Seiko
the intuition of a year the nephesh the
atmos foreign
you're having a person's lifetime in
other words now instead of looking
physically in the structure of a person
let's look in the timeline of a person
we have our younger years which in our
younger years what's the Eco over there
to develop fine motor skills regular
motor skills
it begins to develop the cognitive
developments
as a child goes over you have an Allah
what a child once he reaches six years
what a childish to by bar mitzvah
what a childish
is able to be noises
what a person what an adult
is
so the stages
the younger years are like the naglayim
the middle years into Essie Miss and
then there's the person that reaches
even higher than Seiko
so to some degree we can understand the
madrish
when the abuser is asking us you're
committed
in which level in other words we want
everything but where's the starting
point our relationship with Toyota
so the first answer that a person thinks
fine tairas
we're connected to this we're going to
study this
we're gonna unpack it we're going to
understand it
says no
so we can look higher
explains what's
Mitsubishi
it's that a person can be so connected
and elevated to a place that he feels it
in other words
intuitively we see it we feel it
foreign
[Music]
it's not depends on anything I'm
committed because I'm committed
so
in a Seer a child resembles the Kabbalah
cell and again it creates
him
what's the banana or even but they know
that we're committed to title
with Kabbalah soil we're committed to
Torah with our Seiko and we're committed
to a title with everything but the essay
to everything is
to some degree
to add from another angle so
you have the the I was mentioned the
you have every laboratory is familiar
with
so even a child and hater that didn't
learn this
knows what artific
is that he's not just a goblin if the
loyver is going to default
but that the malware can go directly to
to this it's a it's a higher level of a
commitment that he can be first instead
of second he's first
which level in other words sometimes I
don't know
sometimes we think banana was the
shanties were out of the picture
titles by the kids
Elaine no problem talk to the kids it's
all about the kids the kids should learn
for ourself
we Pat to ourselves
so keep posture we understand that shots
the shot is the opposite that we're
committed in other words we're being the
the English didn't give the title to the
children
davidster gave us the title with our
commitment that we're going to be my
combo to tell you and teach it to the
children you can't teach the children if
we're not living it if we're not
breathing it if it doesn't exist by us
and strong
it's going to be limited how effective
we can give that over
another nakoda
just to talk maybe a
from an angle of
it comes up and maybe La creena comes up
more
the world and maybe us as mechanical we
grapple with the question
of expectations versus acceptance
so before we we explain what in order
what I mean is that sometimes we we
place
a disproportionate load
on the talmud
maybe as a result of whatever we wanted
for us from ourself instead of demanding
it from ourself we go to the talmud or
sometimes because we demand so much from
ourselves we have these high
expectations
some people counter that and say no
today is an era
where there's no expectations
if you want Kia material by children
acceptance
embrace
Embrace a child for wherever he is
more and more people went away from as a
result of this interpretation
away from giving tests because Tess is a
way of setting an expectation I set an
expectation I expect you to know it who
said you have to know it right so it
became Villa of chauvinistloid the
hidden
or the Hain right the Hain vallav
so it's like
to some degree I don't know if everyone
would agree with me
but to some degree
what the way you usually understand how
these things develop and how they live
by different
is a lot of times we come at something
and we overdrive it to an extreme
and when we overdrive something to an
extreme
we hurt ourselves or we heard the
children in the process
so how do we undo it so we're going to
overdrive in the opposite direction
so in other words perhaps as a result of
certain times
becoming so rigorous
so demanding
such high expectations
such high bars that are set
so we feel it's it's destroying you want
our children to thrive
just love them
just embrace them just smile at them
a child's reading
he's reading with mistakes so what he's
reading right
he's proud
he's comfortable reading
don't correct him however he reads he's
good the way he is
I'm not in a position to be my on this
question
the only thing that I can suggest in
this nikodo
in the way we place and the way we
approach our children
in the way we articulate this arvos not
just by Martin Torah but throughout the
year
I think the MS lives in the middle the
MS is in the middle
in other words the never spoke just
the kids so
a loaded question
and I don't have the answer to it but
because
you see from the river you find both
extremes not both extremes both nakodis
and very strong each one
to remember
especially dealt with certain children
with challenges one of the strong
emphasis for a child was
if there isn't an expectation
and there isn't a belief that the child
is capable for more
the child will not grow
so that spoke about islamasu with
special children so as we give a label
so with the given labels like okay now I
can accept them that is what it is
they're Limited
now there's a belief in a person when
you really believe in a person
what results is a healthy expectation
that healthy expectation is what helps
the child grow into our healthy young
adults
that's where an expectation bills a
person
when the expectation is unrealistic or
the expectation is not driven by my
belief in the child but it's projecting
my expectation when I want to fix the
child
Chris I decided this is the sound that
every child has to be by
so it's frustrating if I came to the
standard he's not meeting my standard
he's not meaning the standard physical
toys
so when we want to fix someone and we
want to infix them to a standard that's
when we destroy them
and that's the expectation that doesn't
build a person but it it destroys and
over the years we're legitimately
embrace
smile taken through he is
foreign
like to call upon another manaloconites
Robbie Simpson Crown streets
I would say foreign
however I still believe that it's
important for us to acknowledge
the wonderful efforts of rebathroom
and arranging today's
for arranging the fabrangi nation of the
past and the Mirza Hashem of the future
and also for the assistance that he
arranges for the yamintevim to be able
to enjoy the yomtith the way the umptive
was meant to be enjoyed
[Music]
I think today you outdid yourself
I walked in yesterday

together with the red
man says
[Music]
foreign
[Music]

albertaph Israel

foreign
what did he do
but how can

[Music]

[Music]
to the bahrim to Those whom we are and
we share our ideas with them to see to
it that they're going to be London
Joseph
[Music]
because
and each one of us becomes ashutif and
expresses
Israel
I says
[Music]
if I didn't name him for each and every
one of us that we are able to be the
wounds those feelings
that we are able to spend our days and
weeks and months and years and our life
and our coaches and our efforts
to see to it as Maleficent kingdomeness
and we and we bring up a deal that we
can say that
we have
we also know
s
[Music]
but anyone
[Music]
Wasim as it is expressed in our inrino
and each and every one of us is here
because Isaiah
talks about someone whose job is to make
sure that the water is divided properly
amongst the various fields
it's a very menial job
is
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
and we should be involved to see to it
that our commitment get whatever they
receive whatever that whatever they need
and this needs to create within all of
us
that we feel and we know and we believe
that we are different different in a
good way then
foreign

our shame on Friday we're going to find
ourselves in the shoe and the highlight
of
we bring our children to the show

harsinai
in essence every day we have what the
kids in our classrooms it's a certain
Giver of
we're taking Toyota the way it was said
by the abistar and we're giving it over
to the children
right
[Music]
this is the introduction to the aceres
adibres right

dilemma

worth

definitely a hero

then need to get it over but that is
[Music]
and now it's our job
and to give it to each and every child

and when we have this element of where
we feel ourselves that we are the Milan
day trader and we are an extent we are
the extension of hamillah
foreign
kids have their challenges
but when the child feels as that as
there is
reaching him
says it's not
it's because

before we move on to the next speaker
you know that was the words back in the
day I loved off because
foreign

no go nothing go wrong with that
is
foreign
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
what's your name hazards
eBay
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
and then ganford the state of invising
industry in the
Hacked halts and getting based medicine
is
foreign
nothing yeah
there's a dish indicator
I must say first of all
like my fellows have spoke before me I
must say grace
for Every Blooming he was quite
persistent in calling me
and nudging and finding me because
usually it takes a time a little to
catch me and he worked on it and I um
I'm very happy that he was persistent
I'm able to be here today tonight and
also
I must say another thing
that the fact that it's elevation
and everyone's here together damage the
night before yantev we know what it
means to prepare a house for yont if
it's so on so and not only did I salute
them alumn but I salute their their
wives too for allowing their husbands to
be able to be by it by this special
Hockey event
and and
I and I
I would like to say one of the things
is
and one of the things that the the river
writes in a mimer
it happens to be the mimer that the rep
is set for us when we went on I went out
on schleichers
and
cotton
as it says from the Shalom for us we
left the next day and shush and put him
Cotton
and they ever spoke to my River
look it
and uh
in the memory when the rabbit speaks
he talks about the ikexada of Haman
which was on
foreign
which means
as we heard before
that if we want to be able to inspire
ultimate him we ourselves have to be
inspired if we want to give enthusiasm
Tara told me them we also have to be
enthused
so we have to look for the ways
of how we can ourselves be inspired and
enthused all the time
especially that we live in a world that
you know especially
it's it's a it's a
in Hebrew it says
it
I've lost my English you'll have to
please
ah
what's the word for that
it burns you out okay we'll use that
it's not an easy task
I mean I grew up in a house where my
father and my mother
they both passed away in the middle
of a school year while they were working
again
they didn't come into school the next
day because they passed away
so I saw this
Mama day in and day out in the house
that I grew up in
so one of the ways how I
work on myself
is that I try
that the river should be one of my top
once a week for me
but I try every day
and because of that there's those that
know if I bring about it I have a
convenience
every day that I read five letters
of the river a day in English according
to the Seder
I'm now a helicopter base
when when covet came around
I added on reading their Everest letters
in English
because there's already a good number of
volumes
and I started reading the web is in
English because if I already know the
language I might the whales utilize it
for the real reason why I have to know
this language
and there's something very special about
their letters in English I must say
for those that the English language is
their mother tongue
it it's a different style of a letter
with their ever writes and talks to
people in those letters
I definitely warmly suggest to everybody
on a daily basis
is something that you turn the rabbit in
being your personal
and I see also tremendous as
I have this quiz
and today
in my five letters
well it's a letter
and also I don't go according to dates I
go just read so it happens to me that
now it fell out that I'm seven time
it was a letter that they ever wrote to
all the tailor that was having their
yearly convention
I guess after she was
and
there ever writes in the letter
that he is that the convention is going
to be not conventionally the dinner
whatever it is
to take a look at the exact lotion
everyone is still under the uh
of the yante of Shores and he says and
of course one of the central parts
foreign
and most certainly
wrath is
what everyone's under the impression
right now from that erosion that it left
them for sure about this
and there it goes on
Amazon
as I know that tonight we're for
bringing him
and whoever talks about the central
issue Central
and here here we are as we heard also
very nicely put that the banana means
that we're the araven for that even
because the kids themselves if we let
them just do what they want
they won't accept so quickly but they
know it's us here in the room that are
making sure that they should be there
and even for clothes
so remember it's quite appropriate that
we're getting together
very very appropriate
and just to show you also
how they ever approach to the rabbit
My Father Allah
when he first got married he was
teaching
in Detroit in the basement Who The Day
School in Detroit
after that we moved on to Toronto
where he taught
he came to Toronto
to uh for for to be a schlier
and so he was involved in labavage work
but his main paranosa was coming from
teaching even then
and he taught in the it's time day
schools in Toronto
in Beijing Day School in Detroit
at that time
they were under tremendous Financial
strain
and they weren't able to pay salaries to
the malum
and it went about for four months that
the malum did not get a salary
and my father
we didn't have my grandparents from both
sides weren't wealthy individuals that
they could support the family
so literally
they didn't have the money to live
and everyone in the city knew that base
the day school wasn't under tremendous
strain
and they weren't paying the melamed them
so there was a one of the children that
my father taught the Father the the
family was in business
and the fellow
he loved he loved my father the father
of this one of his my father's students
and he told my father you know
you know why do you have to suffer
not getting paid a salary I'd like to
offer you
I want to offer you a job
I will put up the capital and open up a
new business
and you'll run the business because I
trust you and I uh I want to help you
too
and we'll split the profits 50 50. it
was a tremendous offer
somebody coming up with the whole
Capital opening of new business and
he'll be able to run it and get 50 50 of
the profits
so my father told them
I'll I'll be going I'll be going to the
I think it was I think maybe it was time
going to the river or maybe this kiss
love I don't I don't know exact date but
of course it was in the middle of the
school year ready
my father came to New York and he went
into his
we're talking about something like you'd
give only a dollar one of these years
you'd pay you that wanted
and he
told the rabbit he described the
evidence situation what's going on
that hasn't been paid salary for so many
months
and he says I have an offer
and he told me the offer of this
businessman to open up the uh a business
and to split the profits 50 50. without
having to put in any capital
she says they ever heard the offer
as he heard the offer he says the rebel
was there ever went like this
I like
wasn't happy to hear the offer
you told me it knows we would say in our
language you know everyone like this
so my father says to me
either
I stayed for another 43 years
but it didn't finish then
you have a turn to my father and he said
to him
how much did they owe you
so he he how much do they owe me the
only four-month salary
he said everybody said how much is that
so he calculated
and he said by Eric whatever it was the
four-month salary that he didn't get
paid
Sarah told him
when you go out of the room
I'm gonna call
right now
and he'll prepare you a check
it'll be a bridge alone
that when they pay you for the salaries
that they owe you you'll pay me back
and sure enough
father went out of the room you have a
simmer and he went to afghanikov wrote
him on a check
and he it was able to keep him going
until finally they kicked in and started
paying him the money
the salaries that they owed
so the rabbit was quite clear
foreign
but he also actually gave a personal
loan
to be able to keep keep him afloat to be
able to keep him going in
for another 43 years
this is just a small story of the
thousands upon thousands
of stories and also letters and Series
has written and spoken about the
receiving
and everything we're involved in when it
comes to
now as it was mentioned before
I came in for sure
I remember
as I was
as I becameer of
it was in tough Shin at the end of this
summer of topshin my mouth
and shoes came around tough human base
and I knew the terebe it called Schwarz
hagamatsis
and I was hesitating does that mean I
should come to New York for sure not
I'm just just I'm a rookie I just became
a Rove
pixels you know take take it easy don't
get carried away with yourself
so I I went to maimash beer
who was a partisan
and I discussed with him the issue I
asked him
foreign
never finishes what do we say in Camp
learning never ends
so learning never ends also that we
should carry on have our own
and our own
um
so I went to my machine
and I asked him I said to him what do
you say about me coming to to New York
going coming today
was the child
I just became a rabbi yeah
you start calling yourself a rabbi and
coming to New York don't get carried
away
so he told me like this
he said to me
there's a Jose goat travels to the river
it's when they travel today
everyone has their dates when they came
today
he says
but there are times
where there ever wants to see you not
you going to him as a closet
this is
has nothing to do with who you are
as a closet has to do this is what he
wants to see
he says that says
if the Matas are going to stay home and
masses
they have to come
see you're not coming here
is in calling you to come you have to
come
that's it
has nothing to do with who you are and
what you are
Hashem
since instruction base
except for the coverage year
I I thank God I wasn't able to I was
here every year because I know
and I once heard
foreign
of unholous
role of all our day schools
he came to New York
gimmel
and he was invited
first day of sukkas
to the Freedia to be a to be a guest at
the Rivers
he was invited one of the guests
there was a number of people sitting at
the table
I heard this myself from him
we were driving together
to visit two schools
in up north Israel
and I was driving together with himself
and also
Fryman Oliver he was the mankal of the
Rashid
the chairman of the CEO
[Applause]
as we were traveling
and if Hansen told over to Maison
he was sitting with his sake first day
of circus
and there was another Edge he saw the
kid sitting at the sukkah also
and if this other Etsy Soldier asked
the uh rabbit
what should we do about second day
yantev yantev Shane shogolis
said
often hurts Israel does all are passing
him
there's a rabbi here you should pass
as we were driving
he says I'm going to pass it in front of
you I just kept quiet
so then the rabbi said it a second time
started off and there is
he says and I kept quiet
they represented a third time
he says when the devil said it a third
time I realized that it is if I'm not
going to say something
so I said
foreign
you know keeping one there two day
depends on what your career is
he says
he says have you ever look back at him
and you ever told him
I gave you a tasks
I gave you a
a casket
to be the head of all these schools
he's this is he's telling us as we're
driving
so I tell them
so what did you understand from that I
wanted to make sure
I want to hear exactly what he took from
it
so he says to me
he says
[Music]
foreign
[Music]
those are thy increase is like this
it's just this is something
as we're all here
that we have to realize
Hashem
all of you are in the room are you
binged that you have a Sleepless
for each and every one of you
but
and
if you're Oasis
I saw a letter in English recently
a fellow from Sydney Australia
in the I think it's a letter in the mid
70s or something
he writes into them but he was active it
looks like with college youth
and he was being he was successful
and he writes into them but that he's
interested in he would like to
go full time into a coil and sit and
learn
and he wants to hear what their's
opinion is
tells him
there's no question about it that we say
every day in the morning the talmatated
Connecticut Cooling
so your your desire to be able to that's
I mean every day we say we tell them
we'll tell you can I get cooler however
you ever writes
Colonial soul is divided into three
halachim
this is oil that the main thing is
sitting and learning
working people that the icky it is
is Mitzvahs with communal affairs
and then there's a third category
those
it's very interesting
the Bible says three categories
oil
and the other says
if you would come to me with the
question what to do
as you're beginning your life
which Avenue to take we could then
discuss
which Avenue you could take
but you're already involved for a good
couple of years
in what you're doing and you're seeing
success in your work
and you're doing a job
that not everyone can be doing
has
dictated what your sleekus is
of course debit tries to tell them
possibly in your free time
and if you can to find somebody in
certain things that you're involved in
to have a substitute but you have to
make sure you're over seeing the
substitute to make sure that it's done
improperly etc etc tries to calm him
down
from it from his desire
but the fourth is that he ever says
karate Soul divides itself into three
categories
is dictated what your sneakers is
everyone in this room Hashem
foreign
[Music]
into business as they say
and reading the letters
we talk always about Google there's a
letter from the evidence he writes
to in the sheikhabad convention you know
it says so the other says there is
nothing more that's movable the sibis a
goals
that those that are involved in China
because
nothing more you can be involved in to
be
revitalis as those that are involved
right
because
in another whether they have a right
[Music]
said there's enough yeshivas out there
yesterday Yeshiva that not only
that we should be strong eating
ourselves
but to be able to have that
responsibility to be a narrow lawyer
to enlight to give light
to illuminate wherever we go
and there you have a rights in a letter
that there's no other toughkeep
there is a meal of her on a constant
basis hours upon hours each day
like those that are always
because they're sitting across from
their tall medium and they're
Illuminating and enlightening them and
being mechanic to them hours upon hours
every day even people that are always
do not have that opportunity to be a
male or her like those that are involved
in general
the hours of being a mere lower devices
is when you're involvedic is more than
any other topkin
is
I always I said it before
I I participate in different conditions
but I must say
whenever I participate The Killers of
makhandram the atmosphere is a lot more
of a sedish atmosphere fundamologist
and I'm always excited to see it because
I know that means that all of our
children and our grandchildren
are in the hands of people that are
interested in giving them
and your success is all of the success
in the Next Generation
and the Curious of where the river is
for us
is
when I think back
to the different
that I had
growing up
and the impact that they made on my own
personal life
there are certain things that come to my
mind
one of the
one of the teachers that I had one of my
roshishivas
I had this truth to be able to learn
for a short amount of time but very
qualitative time for me
I learned in Brunei
in the Yeshiva
and our sushiva that I had was abusive
Goldberg
and I had teachers before that and I had
teachers after that
one of the things that stood out about
abusive
was that we used to have everyday
used to give us a pimple share every day
for uh two hours
every day
he really wanted to do it also on
Shabbos
but uh
we told them you know
take it easy
so we weren't Caleb for it
but Adam Shabbos
two hours a day a pill with you
and that was the morning hours
he would come back into the zal
in the afternoon
and he would walk from
he wouldn't let us stand up he this is
it with us to sit
and he would go from
synopsis of the sheer and to make sure
that we understood what the nakutas are
this year
every day
he is his massless
his devotion and dedication to us is
tell me them
and then
he completely floored me one day
when he called me over and he said to me
I have an offer
I want to offer you something yeah he
says
what about
from five to seven in the morning
next to the Shiva was a stickle Forest
he says what about from five to seven
will learn together
I was I was
I was 17 years old at the time
five to seven in the morning
in the forest just right I'm telling you
might get into trouble for that you know
you got to be careful but anyways so
he floored me here you talk about are
you talking about her she's a 70
whatever whatever his age was at the
time he it wasn't he wasn't the spring
chicken
and to turn to a talmud and they say
let's sit together and learn she might
said from five to seven in the morning
I I I I I turned it down because I
wasn't shy five to seven in the morning
I I didn't see how I was able to do it
so
I didn't have the opportunity actually
to learn in Mama's private
but the fact that she'd even offer such
a thing and ask for such a thing
shows you how dedicated and devoted and
the love they had for tell me them
it was something special
and because of that whatever he said and
whatever he taught
and whatever he stood for
I was right there
day in and day out
cane leave all them love them I knew
that he loved me and I loved him back
I knew that he cared for me and I cared
right back for you
and his words were precious every word
and his example and being the role model
that he was stayed with me all my life
after that
and I had I was a little spoiled after
death because I would go to other
yeshivas and I would see the other
Russia she was with all due respect I
did not see that kind of dedication and
devotion
and love like I saw by him so I was a
little spoiled
but
it was a role model to stick with me
what it means a real person that's
involved in this
he was an example for that
at the same time
we were learning receives with
reminiscent
and he was teaching us
during the weekdays
and Shabbos
an hour before me
and as we were learning
we learned the mimer
where he talks about Jesus or English
and how it's
because it's legarme
person fears punishment he's thinking
about himself
he's not serving Hashem he's serving
himself
but
says to get yourself out of the out of
the mud
to keep yourself afloat
you can use
foreign
I was very very caught
and just it took me like
I I know I grew up in a place like
Toronto Canada
and I don't I didn't only learn in
laboratory moistness because we didn't
have the time Allah
when I finished grade three so we had to
go to the other moisters and I knew how
much eurozoneish
was you know a main message
and all of a sudden this mimer comes
along and he says
and you could use it to be able to get
you to save yourself over
don't stay in that level it's only the
first level we're looking for upgrades
afterwards
and it would just it was I was starting
to spoil that I knew how much is built
on Unison
Etc
and as I'm being always spoiled from the
gdunk in front of my face
reminiscent
birth center tears
and can't control himself and he's
crying away
I looked at him I was sitting across
from him I looked at him
says what's he crying about
I mean
it's an icy it's stimulating a concept
the universe
and it's not tell him to do
but the then I realized
he takes it serious what he's learning
it's not just an interesting concept
it's not just a sentence
these guys living living with what he's
learning oppa
it was a that was another message in
front of my face
and if you ask me
there's two sure that I remember from
this and that we learned
this is one of them and then he couldn't
survive him when we were learning about
Jesus
and it leaves scars
and leave scars
all of a sudden this in bursts into
tears and else he can't control himself
for a couple of minutes he couldn't stop
crying
and I again I looked at him I said what
did this guy already see in his life
I mean he he was Yeshiva most of the
time and even when he went to Paris in a
car with his head down saying about
positive listening is in
you know we we say that what he called
that what what a 10 year old kid sees
walking down
walking down a block here in America
United States the bill didn't see it for
80 years
I mean it's unbelievable and here he was
bursting into tears crying away about
yeah he is Breaking Bad to my nephewish
again I
hope uh this guy
he takes life serious
he's not just learning he's living what
he's learning
those are the two things that I remember
for me shoot him
those two things were the major things
that I remember
when I saw
that he wasn't just learning it was part
of it was the game
it was his life
against dimension
we come across our kids our students
our communities they pick up
how much
remaining this me Dynamics
how much is it part of our lives
how much we really live with what we're
talking about
that's why it's so important for us to
keep on rejuvenating ourselves learning
ourselves being the Hanukkah ourselves
all the time
that we shouldn't just
be giving over
Concepts knowledge
I remember once I was speaking to one of
my favorite it's a manal
of a moist and I asked him do you have
in your in your moisture
and he said to me well we have
three-year-old four olds he starts
counting and he says and we got 11. so I
told him I didn't ask you how many Milam
did we have
so he looked at me
and he said to me
two and a half
that's what he said to me
is that two and a half yeah you see okay
you know three
so I said to him okay
so that means we have to work
as people that have
that should also be enthused and
inspired that they should upgrade
themselves also to become them
meaning to say they were not just giving
over knowledge
we're not just teaching
but we're always sick
in avoid this Hashem as we heard before
that were just conduits
of varashem
and the more we work on ourselves
personally the more we have a chance
and then
there's another thing that I picked up
another Mahana
he taught me something else
I was learning
I was in schleichers
and their mental foot of us
would call over
sometimes a book or in the morning
one morning he called me over
7 30 in the morning
what does he tell me
told me three things
first first thing he tells me
he says to me there's a bar in the soul
that he's uh he's a yawson
and he tells me the fellow's name
and he says to me
I know what it means to be a yasm
he says my name is
I never knew my father
I was born into being a Joseph
and he says to me the feeling of aiasmus
stays with me all of my life
this book and he tells me the name
he needs to be befriended
I'd like you to make a cashier with him
and to be a good friend of his
and he mentioned to me as he said to me
his name is
he mentioned to me how old he was
remember he said to him I am and he said
to me is age I don't remember right now
you have to ask the family who's in tops
hey so they can tell you
I am and he said to me the h
and a day doesn't pass by they don't
have that gush of yasmus
and you know as he said it I think to
myself boy
you're mental
The Giver
one of the running the underground in
Russia
getting so many people out of Russia
with false passports sitting in jail
solid and confinement The Works what he
went through
The Giver
the strong courageous
and he's telling me that he has every
day of feeling of yasmus first of all to
to to to speak so openly to me in such a
way
that was the first detail
second thing he told me
he said to me you know
when I was in jail
they put me in solitary confinement I
don't remember how many months he said
six eight months he says he was in
solitary confinement
in this little little cell
he says to me and and they try to break
you because I mean it's solitary
confinement and you don't see you don't
see the world and you're all by in its
place
he says I divided my day up into three
parts
one part of the day
he said
I knew the first relic of Tanya balpei
so I would be misborne in the program of
Tanya
and I would be misborne in parochim
he says a third of the day
I wasn't in any Rush
and Authority that he says it over
Allah
for my life
and I pictured the fabranians where they
sat how they sat who spoke who said this
who said that anyone that knows
he would describe the room and also yeah
she says that's how I kept
I kept my sanity
he says the thing that kept my sanity
was the tangible pair that I knew until
finally I got some papers and I started
to write down
on the
block him to be able to learn from paper
but that's what kept my sanity
that was the second thing he said
he didn't even tell me his name is
he just told me this mice
and then he told me the third thing
three thing he told me
was that recently he says I went to
ahasna
here in fact
and I found there
a fellow that we learned together hey
there from Russia 60 years ago
and we we were so excited to see each
other we hadn't seen each other over 60
years
she says we reminisced about everything
that we about our lives
When We Were Young and we're together
and this
is
he left everything now he came there to
Seoul recently
and he was describing to me as a life
and he's finished describing to his life
he finished with a big sigh
class
en
I feel okay
live the life not even one day did I
have I know from William has it this is
what the fellow says
Mendel says to me when he said it I had
a flashback
for bringing with the Garrison bear

shuffle
he was he was big and negative see there
isn't Dominic but he was a Shuffle by
announcement very very humble and very
of zika Lane he was very harsh
and he said
he was for bringing and he said to us in
the middle for bringing ah yes you bear
voice
since it was
going on himself like criticizing
himself
all of a sudden he says his eyes lit up

if there's one thing he has in life
he said
what'd your mental tell me after he says
this tells me
you know where such a thing can be
coming from
see this
and you take everything in the right
proportions
this is the conversation that I had with
three things
we finish the conversation
I went back to my seat
he had a personal conversation with me
it wasn't the sheer
it wasn't even a fabrangian
it was a personal conversation
and that personal conversation
stayed with me
till today because it was a personal
conversation we heard before from Rabbi
Simpson
foreign
talk to me personally
he had a personal conversation with me
you talk about such a personal
conversation
I was invited
a number of years ago
there was a dinner for the khabar of
Toronto
and they
were honoring posthumously my father
elevation
there was a fellow
for such tickle
family you know
core gracievir but you know
and he said to the hater to the and hold
the Creator why do we have to find
somebody that's fry that will give
eighteen thousand dollars
so that we should make him a guest of
honor
I'll pay
this fellow is one of the balchuvas my
father made him from he says I'll pay
the guest of honor should be Rabbi
glakowski all of his shoulder
and let his son Celine Dior come to
speak

but let me tell you something I I was a
talmud of your father
oh I looked at him I didn't I said you
learned to need time he says yeah
he says always tell me this is a fellow
that one of the businesses that he has
is 3 000 franchises of frozen yogurt
stores
in North America
one of the things they have
he says to me
I I I have ADHD
I'm a hyperactive individual as as he
was saying to me 3 000 franchises of
frozen yogurt for statement the
hyperactivity is doing pretty good
and and he says to me and as being a
hyperactive child
a student he says most of the day I was
in the hallway
or in the playground
it was very very hard
for the teachers to handle me
he says and I I came to your father's
class I think he told me it was grade
seven
so I walk into the class first day and I
see a fellow that he used to have a red
beard
used to have a rip
maybe you could see a little trickle
left
an older person
and he starts to teach
I'm daydreaming like usual
daydreaming fidgeting a little
she says
after a couple of days one day your
father tells me
Cho
I'd like you to stay by recess I wanna I
wanna I wanna talk to you
oh he says I was getting ready already
you know he says and
I stay in the classroom
we sit down together and my father says
to him
he tells him
I saw your your last name he says his
last name he says
I know I know a family like that
there's a big family in the shower
in Toronto and he says yeah yeah those
are those are my so so he says to me so
dovet and and shiman and
Yankovic saying his names they're your
uncles
he says yeah those are my uncles my
father my father says oh so if that's
the case he started talking to me about
my family
through the 15-minute recess
and the recess finished
no next day
he asks me again to stay
and the next day again he schmoozes with
me this time he started schmoozing me
about
what kind of sports do I like
and we had a schmooze about that
and your father told me he grew up in
the United States he was more in
baseball in Canada it's hockey Indiana
about that
and he schmoozed with him a full week
one recess about door
he says by the end of the week
your father told me towards the last
minute or two he says to me
Nicole I noticed it's not easy for you
to
to concentrate so much into
try your best
he says I want to tell you something
it was my best year
I tried my best I wasn't a 90 student
and I wasn't an 80 student but I was a
70 student that whole year
and I said this fellow
loves me
he's not just a teacher
see he tells me that's what I can tell
you about your father
and I sent him back you don't have to
tell me more
you said to me you're not going to tell
Nissan Flores you yourself said to me
that most of the year you were always in
the hallway
or in the playground
and you said it was your best year
and you were in your set you got your
70s
and you tried your best
and you say it's because
of how you felt towards my father
I said that's enough
that's a very important message
we heard from Abby Blau before
there's expectations and there's
expectations he said
your 70s
for for the difficulties you were having
then
was tremendous
and I'm happy that you told me that
story
so here we are
every one of us in the room
if we ask if we're asked as parents and
also as teachers
what do we want from our students and
for my children
there's a whole checklist
we'll give the checklists
oh you're all checklist
the question is always
how do you get to that
that's
what we want to get to foreign
we know where we want to get to
but how do we get to it
how do we get to the hearts
how do we get to the hearts of all of
our tall medium to instill in them
ES
of Taylor mitzvah's
cautious
and all those things
that's who we are as individuals
and that's how much we invest in
ourselves also and how much we invest
also in the eburgite the dedication and
devotion and the Aaron's kite
and also taking that personal connection
also to our talmudim all together
and to constantly keeping mechanic
ourselves
foreign
it's a very very challenging task
in our generation
our children
are exposed
there's no more walls
there's no more walls in our buildings
there's no more walls in our homes
technology has made it that everything
is transparent
and there's such out outside influences
that our children are exposed to
whether we like it or not
and Suzuki
and zikr
as the replicate myth
and it gives us the correctness to be
able to be successful
and he knows all the difficulties that
we're going through
and he he's with there all the time to
be able to help us

okay
one of the nakudas
when we talk about
did you ever maybe a stand
for the table
say hey there
just to hold on to it
foreign
yeah
okay one of the
when we talk about Hackle
they're talking about hak Hill
so one of the things it says about hak
Hill
is that
it's reliving
reliving our Sinai
it's creating an atmosphere a minded
of millions of people
and once in every seven years it's to
leave that kind of an impact
do you have such a moment
in in other words we could say
that there's two things about I mean in
in
the Morgan of Rome
then when we say because
he says
and he says
to
Martin Trader
volcano
foreign
parcel
and nevertheless it says you have to
remember both of them
remember Martin Taylor
and remember
as we sit out of Schwarz it takes on
much more
uh it has it it's much more profound
because we're talking about two nakudas
we're talking about Martin Taylor and
we're talking about
the moment of our Sinai
and and I I
drawing from different things that there
ever said in different Secrets which
I'll touch in a minute
I want to give an example
where you have mutton tater
and also
and this this this goes back
Ed when I was sitting shiver
for my Father Allah
so people would come in
from all walks of life and all ages
which I didn't know and I would ask them
when did you when did when from when do
you know my father
were you a student
were you a colleague as a teacher
where'd you get to know him
[Music]
and there was one fellow that walked in
on the first day of the Shiva
and he said I happen to be here in
Toronto and I heard the news
I'm from Detroit
and I worked with your father in Detroit
and basically the day school
he says I want to tell you a story
of what happened
one time as I was substituting for your
father
he tells me like this
your father went into New York for youth
he was teaching grade three
and he asked me I should substitute
so I substituted for him
and
they were learning parishes by yatesi
and I told one boy to say Apostle again
it's another boy I'd say a and it
came to the last Posse
parishes
and I told one of the kids
you say the last person
and the whole class piped up
and they said
we don't say it the last Posse in the
parcel like that
so he said I mean why what do you mean
he says it's a c impartial
see him
so he says to the kids
so if it's a seam how do you say it
so he said I really auctions off this
house to say the last pausing
and the next day the person that bought
the last boss it brings the money
and we go as a class
to the bakery next door
and to the supermarket and we buy
cubwood
refreshments
mitzvah
and then he gets up in front of the
class
he says the last Posse and we have a
this is grade three
so I would never auction off
they insisted they said that's how it's
done
so he says I held the auction
I think he told me he was in touch
I just remembered
he says to me
it went up to a dollar 77 cents
which was a lot of money
in Tufts
he said I still remember the two boys
that were fighting to get discuss
he joked with me and he said to me those
two guys are today manhegan
in the the greater Shaquille in Detroit
and they're still slugging it out that's
a joke to me
he said
he said the next day the kid came in
the talmud with the money
he says we went and we bought kibbard it
was also left over to give Tito
and he said he got up in front of the
class
he said the posseck
and there was a
bit
he says
your father was sitting in New York
but he managed to instill in his tall
medium
sassian
I see him is that stuff
maharash
my mom in her Sinai
there was coils who broke him
it wasn't just given cut and dry
it was a it was not only a learning
experience it was a living experience
it was a A Gunther
a gun's experience
it's like one of the way what's one of
the things
that cat captures a lot of times and and
brings that slogan
certain children
when they're in Camp
because it's not just the learning
experience
but even in our classrooms
Even in our Clinic that we give
to enrich
to find ways
of how to be how to be my husband
how to turn things into much more of a
of a
an experience not just of learning
here how many after when this fellow
left the house after he was menachemoval
I said to myself how many parishes did
my kids finish
the hey there that I I never I never
made any fuss about it
how many problems did they finish
learning no fuss how many programs
where was I as a parent
to to make a sturdom last ignition
to think of how how to enhance it
in the nemesis
the river has
two places where he talks about often
hate
one place he talks about it
is
and he speaks about
him
and this is
and he says the actual the actual house
or home that's built
it has its bricks Windows Doors floors
roofs Etc
that's the basic that's Toyota omitzes
but the interior decoration in the house
the king
Beauty in the house when you walk in
the way the house is decorated the
furniture the color schemes
all that
the pictures on the wall
etc etc
which turns it into a dear to Noah
that's my heaven
thereby says
he says just like the interior
decoration of of a physical home is be
icker in the hands of the noise Israel
that cares abides he says also
the beauty of Taylor mitches which
expresses itself in highest
enthusiasm his slavus
Joy all that
he says that hammock of the
in the house the highest hang the slavas
de simcha
that's in the hands of the Curious
advised
there's
and whoever brings it out in the
Seahawks and parches Ember when he talks
about the hazard
says
should have been written already
it says the difference
it's a basic tenant
so what is he says
to say what's right and what's wrong
that we already know
foreign
not just what's right what's wrong
yes and no
limitations
is important in in is the famous vort
with with
we go into the tables of Titans
adds on
it's not enough just boil a table it has
to be saw your tacitated
the tables have to be lifted
they have to be enthused they have to be
fused with light
with enrichment and so on
this is
to find the ways of how to turn things
into much more of an experience
to enrich it
finishing a passion becomes a seam at
the
you know I remember once
as a child
we were going Friday once to the Mikvah
and
outside of the Mikvah
all of a sudden a fellow comes out of
them a young guy
with a box of Calum
it came out and it's a fellow that was a
former talmud of my father
but he didn't teach
my father taught sigh in day school and
also night school
for the boys that went to public schools
and they came for three days a week to
three times a week in the evenings
and also on Sunday a little
this was a guy was a talmud from night
school
and he had learned
in night school until he reached the age
of bar mitzvah
usually the compartment
and he was walking out of the mick with
Caleb
to understand his background
and he sees my father and my father sees
him yeah
they embraced
and he says to my father I can't believe
I can't believe that we're meeting right
now as I'm leaving to make Caleb
he says you know
I just got married
I got married a week and a half ago
he says and these are Caleb they bought
for the house
and I brought them to him
and he says and I want to tell you
what I'm doing here in this speaker
he says
in grade three of four in night school
you taught us about Phyllis Caleb
and the school was in the same building
where the mcviz
the basement
he says you took us down
to the maker
and
you took off your shoes and socks rolled
up your pants
and you took a Kaylee
and you went into the water and we stood
around the
and you explained to us all about Felix
Calum
and you said to us how you have to make
sure that there's no glue on it and you
have to clean it and so on and so forth
and you showed us
how you're toifling the Klee in the
maker
he says
the rabbi was standing in the water
and and he's talking doesn't tell us
we're all standing around he says
that day
I said
when I get married and I have my own
Caleb
I'm gonna come and travel to Caleb too
and he came to the microwave and toivo
to Caleb and we made him outside of him
protest to see
that the vort was also
as I think back I say to myself
those haste
to to turn
foreign
they don't even see the experience the
midst of it feels okay they don't see it
why are we robbing them
of opportunities
emotional baking matses
baking matzo should be just you walk
into a store and you buy you buy matzas
don't say is
kids come to the bakery and they see him
alive
and you speak about 18 minutes and and
cleaning the tables
sings believing
you turn it into a in Turkey shift
you don't tell me there's parents
there's fathers that when the kids are
having the bar mitzvah
they take their children to show how the
surfer puts the parishes into the bottom
you should see
we let things pass by hop up
without
giving it its proper respect and and to
dignify
the things that the mittens that we're
doing
we have to think of all kinds of ways
while the vault
The Clash the Clipper is there
The Dazzle of the world there is
why why can't we have that same
when it comes to these things
to work on it
that's the coinless
my grandmother Alicia
she left in her Savoy she had five
daughters she left in her Savoy
that she's asking her daughters to be
Michelle to try their best to light
candles at least Shabbos candles 10
minutes before Luke Benjamin
and that they should startled that they
should be wearing big day Shabbos when
they do it
and I used to watch her as a kid
after the Maize passed away he passed
away at a young age she lived many many
years by us
because my mother was the youngest she
helped with taking care of the kids
and I used to see her every Arab Shabbos
she would come to the table
I would watch from the couch I would see
how she would light
and she would stand there between
and she would misspell
and misspell and misspell
with such a awe
and I and I
every year by Nila
I always say to myself
by the lift
every year of Shabbos
turned that look is natives
into something much more than just
the actual lighting of the candle
she she
beautified the mitzvah she glorified it
afraid but color she takes off
halofrocious color
why shouldn't the children be around
when she's taking off the hall
why shouldn't it become
why shouldn't it become something
to make it serious about
this is the kind of inyanum and we talk
about
foreign
with the whole books
because it's not enough just cut and dry
we're talking about
a the broken moment
the highs
of Mante ment
it's
the chain of the deer
this is all part and parcel when we talk
about
so this is part of of you talk about
like I say in order in order for us to
be able to to be matsular
that the the knowledge that we're
implanting in in our tall medium should
not just remain as knowledge
it's when it's spiced up
with the highest
with enthusiasm with inspiration
it it takes on a different dimension
it makes a greater impact and it stays
there
I mean that's why I always tell when you
know it's a soul when I first came there
to Seoul years ago
there was there didn't exist camps
there wasn't camping this summer because
first of all there's no there's not a
long summer
they finish around next to tishabov and
then
but I can tell you that the first when
they started making camps and I had
still leaving for two weeks
I was from the first ones that sent my
children and I also I also encouraged
everyone in our community to send even
though it was expensive and I told them
it's worth every day
just for the ex experience the Yiddish
kite becomes uh also a living experience
and not just a learning experience
that's one of the myelism also take for
example sometimes parents they asked me
about sending their daughters to
Seminary
it costs so much money
and and is it really worth it and I tell
them
every moment of sending them away for to
a good Seminary is is
because over there it's not just that
they're going to learn
they're going we have Alum crime title
so it becomes a holy living experience
it's a completely different dimension
so in in a key to when we're teaching
day in and day out
the icky doggish is under learning
but we have to always try to find the
ways to spice it up
and you know we're not alone
we're not living on an island
you speak to you see they're successful
that they have years of experience ask
them what are the things that they're
spicing it up with
how are they making it how are they
enriching things we hear ideas come up
with more ideas
that's one thing
there's another thing also
it's a very important thing too
one of the things about Martin Taylor
it says
the famous secret that we always quote
when we go out and speak in different
places
the seek of cold Godly Joseph
that there wasn't the echo
and thereby says what's the significance
in the Bible says because there wasn't
the rebound it you know one of the words
you learn even if you go to all Traders
permeated
until you permeate it
into the stone so there wasn't the
rebound
no Echo
when you think about it for a minute
the in the cold God of Joseph that there
wasn't a rebound has another message to
it
yeah I'll I'll I'll
uh the message that it has
you know a lot of us can be very very
strong
in all the Mysteries cautious
we can be strong in our
super duperate villain
let's sewers
black on both sides not black on both
sides
had
the whole of a Hulu
this bottom that bottom sits his hand we
can go on and on and he do him
all of a sudden sometimes
if somebody
if we think somebody did something it
wasn't right
a teacher
somebody in the community
we could sometimes
or a student
that we feel that the student's not
acting right the way we can express
ourselves sometimes
not only is it not glad kosher
but it doesn't even have a hectare like
you know like we would say in Israel
do what with the way we expressed
ourselves
in other words there's an echo foreign
tables can sometimes turn into a
hospital room that we're making biopsies
on people
we could all of a sudden talk about
somebody
in a in a not not the right best way
possible
a Arabi could sometimes lose it
and the children are watching and
they're saying
they're not verbalizing they can't even
verbalize it
they're not saying it because they don't
know they don't know how to express it
but
it's what's going on in their minds
some things that matter with my teacher
if he's if he's exploded like that
and what happens is is that once they
see it as an echo
in one aspect
so uh
if they see that there's certain things
that are not congruent
to them
so they round other corners
in respecting a talmud
in in being careful not to be Messiah
somebody brought up him I had once a
story a 16 year old girl the parents
came to me and they told me that she's
she's she's slowly sliding away from
everything
and she's completely not learning this
year
she was a good student until this year
but she's out of it
and they started to talk to me about
adolescence and you know sweet the year
16 it's called teenagers
I said
if if you tell her I'd like to talk to
her will she come she said she'll come
if so he said to tell her I want to talk
to you
so she came
and we started to talk
and I and I and I you know in the
conversation as we were schmoozing I
directed it towards the fact that I
heard that she's not having a good year
school and she's
and she said to me yeah so I sat there
can you tell me
what what's the reason
what ticked It Off
do you know what made you all of a
sudden just because I understand till
now you've been a good student you've
been learning well
is there what is it
is it a friend is it this is it
something else
yeah I thought you could be open with me
I'm not gonna
it stays in this room
so she tells me
I'm uh I'll tell you what happens she
says
I I'm chronically late
I don't have a built-in
watch
I don't have a building clock in my
system
if if something starts at eight I'm
eight ten eight fifteen I'm not I'm not
a Time person
how much I try
it's just not
she says I ended up one time
I gotta I got a ride to school and it
ended up being early
and so I was in the class when it
started
and the teacher you know she takes
attendance she calls other names
and she got to my name she called out my
name and I said I'm here
and the teacher looks up
let's give honey a round of applause she
finally made it on time and everyone
started to laugh and everyone was round
of applause
and she says and I laughed too
I laughed outside
inside I said to myself
how could she do that to me embarrassing
me like that and so public making a
laughing stock that everyone's
applauding that I came
such insensitivity
she tells me and she says to me I said
from this teacher I don't want to hear a
word
and she just
close yourself up
this is what she tells me
so as we're sitting in a classroom
and we're dealing with talmudem and tell
me this whatever
we have to remember
their their human beings
and we have to try to protect them
not to be advised
even if we have to rebuke it's got to be
done in the right way
you know sometimes one of our kids comes
home and he comes up with a note
a note you know something that he did
what happens is
all the family has to hear it
why why does all the family have the
Earth
he came up with a note take the note you
read it you want to talk to him about it
it doesn't have to be at a separate
table the whole note
we don't realize
becomes public consumption
and it hurts
so
that's one kind of an echo
there's another kind of an echo
that's the echo
of Technology
that's the echo
of literature
in our homes books newspapers magazines
technology
that's also echoing
and yo you know some someone sometimes
you know you come to come to a house
and you have to use a washroom
foreign
if you go to a bathroom
and in the bathroom you have literature
that's in the bathroom
it's not massive
not the pictures
we're not we're not from Simpson
the bathroom even though it doesn't have
a mezuzah it says hello
it's not off limits
permeates there too
or technology
people ask me what's the minig in
Lubavitch where you like Hanukkah
candles by the window
or a person basin
we're by the door but there's a third
place where today where everyone could
like Hanukkah candles
it's almost third place is it
about 15 years ago I would tell people
if you have a computer in your house
without a filter you could put the
mechanical
uh next to the computer
today you don't have to do that even
just put down the phone if you don't
have a filter put down the phone put
down the monitor you have pencil basic
records right
so in other words
is echoing
it's rebounding of Technology it's
rebounding off literature
it's rebounding off sometimes the way we
act like
and our students watch the rebounds
and they pick it up
that if it could rebound off this and
rebound off that I'll rebound it off
other things
the mainland that's for sure that we
have to try our best to instill
cuts through and gets into everything
and if it's not there
if there's a rebound it has to be
changed
and this is something that we have to
work on in our own houses
and also in all of our tomatoes
foreign
sees here
closed
the calm itself when you when you want
to take it you'll take it okay
the atonement sees
that we're not being congruent ourselves
we have to realize that towards
in our own homes and also we have to
speak to our students and we have to
also speak
to the parents
also that they should realize
what it's doing to their own children if
they're seeing compromise
if they're seeing coroners being rounded
what it does to them in their own
because they begin to see that not
everything that they're learning is
taken seriously
and thus that's a that's a very
dangerous message message for such a
thing
and there's one more thing I would like
to add on
and that is as melamed him
how important it is
that you know one of the Calum that we
have
tools that we have
is is
the famous vort
from a rebuild part if he ever brings it
down in the
it's a marcelic would send talmidim
to to be by a blue parts for a couple of
years to get
and repeal had a Seder that for the
first month when a new talmud came
every Shabbos he would tell
by each student he would tell a new
story The Covered denied talmud
and during the week the first month of
this new talmuds being there that other
tomidum would sit with this new talmud
and the River today they would discuss
the stories that bill told look covered
in New talmud and they would analyze the
stories and dissect it from all sides
these stories and these stories that he
told for a new talmud
even got a name like you know this is
John Goldberg's first mice that we heard
when he came second my spirit was it was
it's like it was like named with that
name
and they once asked the pill
what's the shot in his Stadium
that a new talmud comes and he puts such
an emphasis on telling stories and how
they analyzed the stories and take it
apart
Nabil said for you give me writes in the
letter he said
in Taylor statement
the first two Isis
should be able to become a mensch
so the Kia of me came that you should be
able to start being miscarried after
today
he has to know how
analyze the mice and take him ice
and that was part of repeals for every
Talent it came
one of the historic Caleb that we have
in our generation
is we've been blessed with an abundance
of support
we have this we have say if I told this
we have all kinds of the Elder Sedum
they came out with different mices we
have stories from the Arabic Galore
thank God
and when we sit there with our tell
medium one of the Calum that we have
to instill with them foreign
and to do it in a pleasant manner
in a manner that they enjoy
am I
we should be always
we should have in our Arsenal mises
and we should be telling mice
and if we have something that we're
learning that we can match a mice up
you see from the Freedia Seekers that he
says when he used to learn with
would give him examples from what
they're learning from elderly
and you see from the freaking Secrets
full with these letters also how he's
telling amazing to give an example to
the thing to show the Indian
you see when it comes to that he's using
dark Exodus and and my citizens he put
him at alter exceed him and everything
full full
well
and today
bit and vices foreign
we don't have to in our days as I was
growing up the only thing that was
printed was talks and Tails
all of our mices that we know was
talking Tales
foreign
would always tell stories to her spirits
in front of Seven
but a shop is told medium
my father passed away
that was the safer that I asked my
mother that I want to take
because I remember how he would sit
shabbat's table not every mice he told
Volpe
he would open up to save her
he would tick off before Shabbos smices
that he felt that were more for our age
and he would sometimes tell the story
reading it inside
that's how he told the story
became part of our what he call
and that's a a starkically
I'll share with you guys of Isaac
freesia
that I just heard
last week we had a hanuka sabai's
in
a place called kvar Truman
it's across from the
Airport
it's it's acquired it was established in
and it was named after President Truman
in his honor
for a United States in supporting the
the establishment
of uh in the U.N of the state
so it's called cartoon it's not a true
place
there's a group of Allah's Troopers that
live there there's one couple that are
very very Stark
the lady behind it
was a driving force behind this getting
a Mickey built
the fry plots
and the bill Mick was built gimbal
is
a
lately
that's how they build mixers you saw a
lot of makers gimbal sheets
so it should be good for everybody
so there was a big looks of eyes
nice
and a very nice mix
well done
it took many years but thank God it's
finally done and there was all types of
people
and there's an organization that builds
mix and adds a soul it's called
America's attire
there's three four organizations in
areas of soul that are really heavily
involved in building big fish
America's Taurus
is a number of
and we work with all of them
because we
when we put mcforest Kebab in Amigo it's
like they're the ones that are really or
there's contractors that are building
and we join them
for supervision for adding angle above
Etc
so at the end of the whole the minister
religion was there
at the end of the whole uh
everyone left
and the the uh the manal of America's
attire
younger man
he uh he he was there he doesn't want to
tell you a story
what's the story tells
he says
a good couple of years ago
he says there was this Paul Trooper
American Booker they came to my house on
Arab Shabbos and if he came to clean my
house
and I saw the book and answer the book
her and find a Booker I said that when
are you coming cleaning houses
Tamika she says
my parents are very angry that I became
from he's from Great Neck man
and he says and they estranged me I
didn't have anything to do and they
don't they don't support me at all
they're against what I'm doing
so to be able to make a living and also
to pay for the Yeshiva I uh
I clean houses
on Fridays until I make money
so the government tells me it's manal
the girl Jose
I saw it was a fine about her answer
Booker since cleaning house so come to
my house stop cleaning houses I'll take
care
and he adopted him
like a lone soldier
and he became his house he took care of
him
he says after about six years that he's
learning and everything
gotta find him looking around I found a
nice family very very fine and Maiden
notes
here's the Booker a massive
Kendall good learning you're shaman
right
family says to me
they hear very good things about the boy
but they have one condition
he has to be born from
they want to know if he was born from
Taurus
so he says as far as I know them not the
parents are anti-religious they they
disowned them
so to speak
he says you know what I'll call
up the rabbi that Aryan Great Neck
ask them about the families that he says
them
do you think
it's possible that
entire summer has kept over there
it's a secular family that completely
not interested in another one thought
okay so it comes back to uh
comes back to the uh
he says to the family
doesn't look like it
this is if that's the case they're not
interested
foreign
so they took him up on it and they went
to the behind kanyevsky
and he heard the whole story
and he said you know what
vehicle
go on it find a Booker simply said
no he said to go on and said he went
he came acrossing Cal
M can I get married how's it they set up
a date for a wedding
his parents are not going to come to the
wedding
so he says I called them I called up the
parents
to try to get them to come to the
wedding
why he already chose his life you see so
many years what's so traumatic what did
Yiddish guy do to you in the past that
you should be so traumatic about it that
you're not interested they won't come to
the wedding of his son
Jesus
you want to know what this guy did to me
by dollars
and he told me to keep cars
and I went to the mixer and this boy is
born from that and look what I'm
suffering from
oh
he heard that
Kim might just show it off
went back to the family I got great news
and when the booker heard it
after they got married
for his son
because she might be so Menachem the
name of the rabbit he realized
he realized who he owes a lot to where
he ended up
amazing
was itself
over
yet the Maison
and today this this forum that came out
to be able to tell stories
because in our days
we can't come into 770 we'd see there
but today
how are the children going to be able to
relate to their
in a very tangible way
are talking about
are enthused about the hip
are
completely
safug
urem
that's how the children will be able to
relate to their habit
so we got to take them off the
bookshelves
and put them on the table
and to talk about it
and when you talk about him he becomes
tangible
and then our children are able art tell
me that we're able to relate to it
and we have their eyes
Hashem
is
and that's what makes him a part of our
lives
and every new story commits a shower of
amazing
it's
fine
and so recently there was a hole up to
ipsa
my sister
I've had enough in some Isis tonight
it's like I say I always joke around I
say
this depends how you want to Market it
is
but the bottom line is
with us
that's the bottom line
and when you see a mice you hear a mice
and you see in your name is
I read my five letters in a day
I'm on the plane reading my five letters
one of the letters
he ever says
about you're making you see now
and you'll let me know what's going on
wherever you go what happened
on the plane before the plane takes off
leave it in my pocket
shouldn't talk about it should mention
it why
if I can't
foreign
and anyone that knows
if you take a look and time him and
argument bring this down
there's two ways how you know placement
I tell you one of them it says in this
room
that you learn
Ed
foreign
[Music]
and these are things that we should be
sharing to our tal medium
because that's part and parcel of the
clinic that we have to be giving
them
it says
um stay up a whole night
the night before that is
foreign
