Gevurah of Hod – “You’re not #1” | Counting the Omer - Rabbi Alon Anava | #sefirathaomer

yesterday was the 29th day of the OM yesterday we were talking about that is making space for another person recognizing that another person exists and how do I do that by acknowledging that the other person has his feelings has his opinions he has his life and I have to make space for another person this is the in order for me to make space for another person space means that to acknowledge that the person exists and that the world is not only evolving around me that there's other people in the world in order for me to do that then I have to make myself smaller or the cabalistic term to it is me is to make me not as great as I think that I am and to move myself aside a little bit and why should I do such a thing is that the other person should be who he is sometimes people want to try to overpower another person or try to Define to them what they need to be or me trying to control another person or just me saying I am the center of attention I don't care about other people and of course it all has to be aligned with the Torah it's not when he wants to be who is that it's against the Torah if the person is going against the Torah I don't have any obl obligation to make room for the person I'm talking about a person that is around me that is following the path of the Torah and I need to make space for that person and in order for me to do such a thing then I have to admit that every person has his space that's what we SP said yesterday but can be explained as H is thanking but H can also be admitting that I MIT to somebody to something this is called in Hebrew to Adit say like you say in the morning I admit to the you pray three times a day we say I admit to the that he's the master of the universe how do I do that then there are many ways of doing it but first I have to know that the way to do it is that to look at every person and know that I can learn something from that person if I'm looking at another person and right away I'm brushing him off then I don't think that the person has any type of worth it doesn't worth anything but if I see I can learn from you something then suddenly you have value so I have to understand that I have can and should learn from any other person I'm not the number one mosenu maybe can be the one that says that I have what to teach but even people as great as mosha Renu like I've learned from every person
