Gevurah of Yesod – “Together we are stronger” | Counting the Omer - Rabbi Anava | #sefirathaomer

So today we're in the 36th day of the and we're like mentioned we're already starting the the week of yod and I said in the previous class that we're going to talk a lot about relationships and marriages and so forth and the reality is that in most relationships it's never easy marriage spouse parents kids most relationships are not easy relationships and uh when you're going into a relationship such as a marriage or partnership and needless to say when you're born into a relationship with your parents you have to be prepared for difficulties the right way to prepare a young couple before marriage is to prepare them that there's going to be difficulties there's going to be a lot of misunderstandings there's going to be fights there's going to be a lot of moments that is not going to be so smooth that's the right way of preparing a person some people prepare people for the marriage yeah everything will be great and that's the it's the wrong way and it's not only in marriage it's any relationship there's always going to be this disagreements there's always going to be misunderstandings there's always going to be fighting there's always going to be a lot of hardship and a hard time in a relationship that's normal so when I going into a relationship such as a marriage I have to decide in advance with my wife for when the times are going to get hard and we're not going to get along and we'll disagree or so forth the only way of overpowering this challenge is if we're together if you're not together it's not going to work then you become to enemies so yesterday we spoke about of of Y the love in the relationship but that's not enough the love in the relationship is one of the components but it's not the component and if there's only love that's not going to sustain a relationship has to be much more than that because if there's only love the second that the relationship is a little bit hard that's it I can't deal with this I'm out I back out so the real relationship is only when there's together if there's no together the relationship will never work so any type of relationship is not about just seeing now that now everything is okay it's to take to consideration that whatever it's going to become hard we have to be we have to stick together when we stick together that's how how we're going to be able to overpower any type of challenge now how do you say in Hebrew to overpower a challenge in Hebrew it's called Hit gab which of course comes from the same word of G is that I'm able to overpower a challenge so is when I taking the power in me to overpower so to say or to overcome any disagreement or a challenge in a relationship now how does it really work because really G if you're looking at the definition of gor is a separation
