Okay, we're finishing now. We're going to try to do two days uh only because uh the next two days are pretty hectic. I don't know Monday what the schedule will be. So, let's uh let's take advantage of the time we have now. Okay. Um, we're up to if he recognizes based on the context. Let's say you know that the father of the girl is tricking the regarding the money that he promised regarding the food. You have to consider very greatly before you reveal this to the you need many details before you tell the that you know that leather bound sh that the the the promised it's a yeah it's a leather bound sh but it's leather from uh from fez and it's still it smells like the tannery and the shas it's uh he made a photocopy from uh from a photocopy from another photocopy and the whole thing he found it in Sheamus after somebody else disposed of it. So you have to think very well. Number one, you have to contemplate well that he's really tricking him that he recognizes clearly his bad nature or his extreme poverty. That he heard explicitly from him that he's only giving an external promise. Basically a fake promise. Do not decide immediately in your mind to think about the that just because he's not uh strong in his standing he definitely will not give him the dowy or the food that he promised. And we see many times people like these They pay their obligations more than wealthy people. Meaning don't just decide because the person is not of such strong financial standing, he's not going to give what he promised. We see many times that people who are not wealthy, they're they make good on their promise more than regular people. Number two, you need to know you need to know that if the would know that his father is not going to give the money that he promised, he won't go through on the many times is likely very often just wants to get as much as he can. But it's not like it's make it or break it. It's not make it or break it. In such a situation definitely this is not saying to go and tell him. In other words, if you know that the wouldn't want to break off the it just he he would like to get as much money as he can. You're now to go tell him because it's not like the the is riding on it. Unless you see that the matter will be unless he'll see that his words will be a to the he'll try to uh scheme how to get out of the mutan as much as he can or promises to uh that he'll come through on his on his pledge that from the vantage point there's no trickery because if yes the father-in-law is deceitful but the is also being deceitful if the let's say was playing himself as a big lambd and turns out he's ana so even though you not allowed to tell the about that but you can't tell the is not rockefeller either if the is tricking Then they cancel out. In other words, the only time, this is very important, the only time you could tell one side that the other side is tricking them is if only one side if A is tricking B. But if, let's say, that's not the case. If A is not tricking B, but I'm sorry, if A is tricking B, but B is also tricking A, then you can't tell anybody cuz anyway, they're both tricking each other. So, so it's a good besides that you need all the other details before. Therefore, do not hasten to reveal until after you contemplate this well that all of the matters that we mentioned before are fulfilled. If they already made the was already made and he recognizes based on the and you recognize based on the is tricking the regarding the or the food. Meaning if the is ready made depends on the following. If you see that your words will not be accepted in the ears of the only to be concerned that he'll take advice against that he can't deceit that he can't trick him or he knows meaning a if they already made the and the the father-in-law is not going to pay the nadan So if you know that all the will do is he'll do some kind of so the father can't trick him or he won't do anything on his own you could tell the you have to be careful you have to make sure you're not missing any of the details that are earlier in base it also seems that you The third detail that we mentioned before that is that you know there's no deceit if you see that the matter will be revealed in the ears of the and he'll be the on his own. Meaning if you know that thean will believe what you're saying and even though the was already made he'll break the engagement believe without any without any explanation to reveal to him you can't tell him it's not common that you'll fulfill all the details look in okay that is which is Tomorrow's limode. We're going to do the final one now. >> Recording stopped.
