Privacy with Curiosity - Rav Eitiel Goldwicht

curiosity is one of the most basic human characteristics it is our drive to explore the world to learn new things we have it from our youth but with it comes a certain danger how many hours do we spend on social media trying to find out what's going on in other people's lives it feeds that need of curiosity but it ends up wasting hours and hours of our life in this week's torah portion bella comes to curse the jewish people he stands over the mountain and he sees the amazing jewish camp and he ends up blessing the jewish people and giving them one of the greatest compliments they've ever received how amazing are your tents israel balak sees that the jewish people they camp together but yet they respect each other's privacy they don't just let the entire world know everything that's going on in their life and they don't allow everyone to come and look inside when we live in our generation we need to find that balance the compliment of the jewish people the balance between yes letting our friends and family know about the beautiful things that are happening in our life but also preserving the privacy of our home the privacy of our family because that's what allows our families and our values to grow stronger and to be given over to the next generation shabbat shalom from jerusalem [Music]
