There's two types of mitzvahs, really. The mitzvahs that a lot of people do, they constantly, you know, I'm going to do I'm going to show people I don't eat on Pesach, I don't eat this guy's chocolate, I only I only eat oranges, etc. etc. Why are you doing it? Show off to your shver? You're doing it because of Hashem? Great. So, if you do a mitzvah and it has a little bit of it's tainted by by other thoughts and this and that, the klishares, this klishares, it's a mitzvah, it's mekadesh. It gives you kedusha, but not as much, not as much as a knife. A knife is a mitzvah that you worked hard on, that you sacrificed from yourself, you cut from yourself. For instance, you go out and you buy a pound of shmurah matzah, you make sure it's the best. Every mitzvah you nothing to do with anybody else. You sacrificed from yourself. You learned Daf Yomi when it was difficult for you, when it was night time and you were falling off your feet. That's the cut from a mitzvah. That is the top of the top. That is much better than a mitzvah that you that was tainted, obviously, for other purposes.
