Same seat. Same flight . 500$ difference. - An Elul perspective

Sometimes the greatest [music] Tory lessons don't come from mountains or castles. Sometimes they come from Cat 23A on an airplane. Well, recently I was flying from [music] Newark to Milan when a great life lesson jumped into my head. Let me share it with you. So, I'm on a plane and the guy next to me is in the exact same row as I am. Same leg room, same stale pretzels. But here's the thing. I paid $240. He paid 640. Why? Because I booked I booked 3 months ago and he booked 3 hours ago. And that's how the system works. We're flying in the same metal tube, breathing the same recycled air, going to [music] the same exact place. Yet his price is double mine. The only difference is he couldn't get his act together in time. And I'm sitting here thinking, isn't that exactly how it's going to be when Messiah comes? We're all getting to the same destination. The flight is totally fully booked. Everyone has a seat. But some of us are going to land and Hashem's going to be like, "Welcome. That will cost a million spiritual dollars." And you'll be like, "What? You only charged that guy a h 100red bucks." Well, yeah. That guy did Chuva his [music] whole life. He took LOL seriously. He didn't wait until the last minute. You showed up at the last second to the RNA check-in counter. That guy, he did Chuva and El. He gets the early bird special. you the chuva ana of rashashana at 11:59 p.m. That's a lastm minute booking fee my friend that is going to cost you. So yeah, basically what I'm saying is book early spiritually because nobody wants to get to Msiah and realize that you got to pay triple for the same flight.
