good morning Boer to should be day BOS
toos please God may we hear good news
and good tidings good things from Israel
May the hostages come home may have a
sweeping victory over our enemies and
the soldiers return to their families
want to thank our amazing amunisi
sponsors Dr zavi and Bella Morgan who
continue to sponsor in memory of Rabbi
Dr Brian gabber and in memory of Bella's
mother Dr Ellen shanzer very very
grateful to the Morgans for their
generosity this morning is also
sponsored in honor of anac con by her
friends and co-sponsored by anacon in
honor of her friends in honor of the BRS
Community going from strength to
strength and has lived here for 39 years
and will continue to be in South Florida
and come to the Amun year you could come
you'll come but it's moving and thank
you for all of your years and Leadership
and generosity and helping build this
community we remember back what it was
it's not what it is now and those
original pillars helped create what it
is so we're eternally grateful to you
for that and we will continue to see you
so we're not saying goodbye but a big
thank you today's also the year side of
my wife's grandmother her om who was a
very very special woman Edith Goldsmith
and uh our learning should be dedicated
in her memory as well a very very
special person okay we'll start as we
always do with some amuna
emails received many we won't be able to
read them all and then we'll get back
into the learning that we're doing the
incredible incredible insights that we
have uh that we have been learning
together from motion Shapiro hello Rabbi
Goldberg this one I got yesterday I
don't know how it turns out I didn't get
the followup yet hello Gober sitting on
a plane for three plus hours hoping it
will take off so I can make my flight to
nework from Newark to Israel where I
will be joining my 11 siblings and
parents for a big family
event delay delay another delay just
sitting letting go and letting God
strength ing my amuna muscles the result
in what happens here doesn't matter I'll
make the connecting flight or I won't
but I'm okay I'm not late I'm not
missing anything I'm right where I'm
supposed to be where Hashem wants me to
be thank you for the amuna shiram they
really help it's like a it's like a poem
it's written that's how it's written
like a poem it's the most gratifying
thing to me as you know I say the same
thing each and every week I say it for
myself for some strange reason you all
come to listen nonetheless
and it's the most gratifying thing as I
know I try to employ our learning when
people send emails that when we're in
those circumstances that can be
frustrating and aggravating and anxiety
ridden will the connecting flight will I
make it will I get to the event the
whole family you know what worrying
doesn't change anything getting anxious
or angry never made the plane take off
ever so just let go and let God and take
a deep breath and know you are where
you're meant to be no Jew no yid is ever
stuck that's not not part of our
vocabulary we are where we're meant to
be we're never stuck somewhere that's
where we're meant to be and like I say I
don't know did he take off did he make
the connecting flight did he get to the
event if you're listening please send
the followup we always like to hear what
happens afterwards but that's the power
of amuna it takes care of us it helps us
it heals us physically emotionally
spiritually and which in turn helps and
heals our relationships because when
you're with someone who's anxious and
angry and worried and envious then you
don't want to be around them so not only
does indulging those emotions and
feelings sabotage our own happiness and
success it pushes away and it hurts the
people around us so just take that deep
breath and realize I'm not stuck and I
can't change it and I do my best and
after I take my isless after I make my
effort and I do my best just let go and
I let God it's all up to him from that
point it's all up to him next email
Gober hope you had a great sh just a
quick story happened to me tonight along
the lines of everybody's in the place
they're supposed to be I was walking
down the Street here in my hometown of
tenek I heard a large crash about half a
block away turned out to be pretty
insignificant car accident I arrived at
the scene cold 911 and kept the older
woman who got the worst of it calm until
the police ambulance and fire department
showed up I thought about it afterwards
and I understood that the walking
pattern that day was very different than
my usual and that this was where I was
meant to be shabbat shalom I got it on
Friday so this person says I don't know
why I walk that way I don't normally
walk that way but now I understand why
because I was in the right place at the
right time when I heard that crash so I
could call 911 and calm the person and
be there in life always realize we are
where we're meant to be wherever we
choose to walk however we choose to
drive whether we have that traffic or
whether there that's delay and a person
rather than focus on how do I get out of
here lean into why am I here why am I
here in this moment why am I here why am
I here next I'd like to share AAS moment
I've been listening to living with past
number of months I've been inspired to
introduce into my day-to-day language we
always quote
the more that we speak about Amun the
more am that we'll have so when we
create an environment an atmosphere when
in our home and to our family we talk
about and invoke a language of God all
the time then we are instilling we are
embedding we are planting the seeds of a
life of amuna if our children grow up in
an environment where they never heard
about Hashem he wasn't invited sure KES
and abdalah were said sure shabas was
kept sure kosher was kept sure maybe
even there was daving but there was no
Hashem that was just a list and a
checklist but there was no conversation
an ongoing Dynamic relationship Hashem
thank you or Hashem please or Hashem why
are you there was no conversation with
hem he wasn't a presence at our table
and in our home then people will
struggle to
have the more you talk about hem
yesterday in the par we spoke about
thead theah kados says our para is the
source of the words God willing we read
the Miriam Miriam not Miriam Mariam
Webster dictionary definition of God
willing maybe her name was Miriam I
don't know which is we we'll call her
Miriam Miriam
Webster Miriam Webster of blessed memory
I don't know she's still alive maram
Miriam I don't even know but in her
dictionary in that dictionary defines
God willing inaccurately God willing
comes from
our our para tells us about how the
Jewish people and the camp knew to
travel when the Clouds Of Glory would
lift how do they know when it's time to
go when it's time to stay AEM it was
always based on God and the SCH says a
Jew whether they're stationary and still
or whether they're on the road and
traveling always Al hasem I am where I'm
meant to be I'm not stuck this is where
Hashem wants me I make my effort I take
my initiative but the result the part
that's out and Beyond My Control IEM
that's where hasem wants so thees writes
this is the origin of a Jew every time
you pull out of your drug you start
going for a walk you say God willing but
Ezra
with God's help I'm flying today with
God's help this is my destination with
God's help I'm sitting still with God
help station I am where I am it's always
with God God willing God willing
I'll God willing anyway so this author
of this email says I've been inspired to
try to introduce into my dayto day
language we have to bring it into our
language we'll believe if we speak if we
use that language
God willing with God's help thank God
please God you know this is going to
pain me to no end to actually talk about
the Celtics but the Celtics won the NBA
Championship I wish there were a way
that the Mavs didn't win because they
have a big anti-semite on the team but
also the Celtics didn't win but that
wasn't an option anyway Celtics won why
am I telling you that because their head
coach is a very very very religious
Christian their head coach is an
incredibly religious man who actually
walked the perimeter of the court before
the last game and prayed and who when
the game was over rather than put on a
teacher that says NBA champions or I'm
going to Disney World he put first I
thank God that was his T-shirt first I
thank God and in every interview every
interview they interviewed him
apparently I don't know the British
royalty or ex- royalty attended one of
the games and they said how do you feel
about the royalty being present and he
said the royalty and then he said God
and he mentioned some other people that
we don't believe in but that royal
family that's the only royal family I
know and care about I don't know any
other Roy he talks about God I never see
a Jew talk about God the way that this
coach of the Celtics talks about God no
fear unabashed unafraid Unapologetic
every interview all he talks about is
God all he talks about is God I just saw
an interview they they before the last
game where they won the championship he
went to visit not the celebrities who
were coming out for the NBA Championship
he visited a few children who were
struggling with cancer and he talked
about he said you know it's easy to
smile when you win an NBA championship
they were smiling and positive despite
what they're going through that's what I
think about amazing I'm not saying we're
bringing him as a scolin residence where
he's where he should give the musm
because it's the wrong religion and a
different religion but I think it's good
for religion I think that somebody who's
got a platform and a microphone and a
spotlight is telling the world first I
thank God and thank God and this is what
matters and this is just a game and it's
just silly it's unbel
unable I don't like his team but it's
unbelievable sorry sorry but it's
unbelievable anyway he is fulfilling in
his own
way I'm sure his team talks about God
all the time and thinks about God why
because they have a coach every one of
us is a coach in our life we're the
coach of our team our team could be our
family our team could be our work
environment our team could be our
friends we're the coach of that team
what t-shirt do we wear what does it say
he we got to talk about hem please God
God willing
be with God's
helpu traveling today God willing this
is where we're going on vacation God
willing staying home God willing
everything God willing and in a very
subtle nuanced way we introduce that
language we're introducing ideas and
values we're introducing relationships
we're introducing Consciousness and
mindfulness we're introducing a way of
life that is healthy and that brings
greater happiness and that that gives us
strength to endure I know there are
people in this room who recently
suffered loss I'm so happy that you're
here and that you're joining us and it
means so much and how does one navigate
finding comfort and recovering from loss
and struggle Irreplaceable people that
leave a hole in the heart is only with
Hashem could be angry with Hashem that's
also okay he could take it anger at
Hashem also means that you believe he
exists because you don't get angry at
figments of your imagination if you're
angry at him because he took someone so
Irreplaceable he says I can handle that
and I appreciate apprciate that because
if you're frustrated at me it means you
know I'm here and it means you're in a
relationship you're still in it but
there's no way to have the strength to
endure without leaning in and without
leaning on him back to the email for
example yesterday I had to get my kids
to the shoe store before it closed at
4:15 school was over at 3:45 and it's a
12-minute drive I got to school early
piled the kids in the car made the track
to the store we encountered traffic and
I was watching the arrival time go up I
found myself muttering at the traffic to
move faster and then I realized that my
kids were listening so I Chang changed
my language even though I didn't really
feel like it I said hem you are in
charge I really want to get the kid
shoes and the guy will not stay past 415
but you're in charge and if it's not
meant to be that's okay too I kept
repeating you are in charge Hashem not
me fortunately the story does have a
happy ending miraculously all the kids
found their dream shoes in a few minutes
we made it out with a new pair of shoes
in time the best St part of the story
was the email I got from my daughter
today she's 11 and I see that the
message the message stuck is this your
youngest amuna and then she shared with
me the email she got from her
11-year-old daughter Ma I want to tell
you a story you know how I how miss her
teacher told us we could give her a note
for the kotel anyway my note for the
kotel said I wish I could see my cousins
from Israel and Hashem listen to me
they're coming to our house it's amazing
so this 11-year-old is now speaking a
language of amuna I asked Hashem Hashem
is amazing my cousins are visiting
that's connected and correlated with
Hashem in my
asking the more we speak about him the
more we speak about it the more we Le in
and the more that we believe it's up to
us and this I should know his name
because I'm referencing him it's not
nice what's the
[Music]
name something like that but the name we
should look it up he deserves for his
name to be mentioned we'll mention it
later we Jews religious Jews we're so
embarrassed and Afraid you know we we go
to the airport and we find a way to hold
our phone and go in the corner no one
should see us daving and we have a
business meeting we have to make a br
put our hand over our mouth and we
Mumble it and we figure it out and you
see so many they wear the baseball cap
because they don't want to be and what
are weo screaming from the rooftops God
willing with God's help please God thank
God scream it from the rooftops to your
colleagues to your patients to your
clients to your friends to the cashier
what are we embarrassed what are we
apologetic you know why we're here
we our mission our purpose our mandate
is transform the world in God's image
bring God down into this world this
world is increasingly Godless it is
pushing God out it is not speaking God
language it is polluted is contaminated
and why are we here what are we charged
to do bring God back into the
conversation talk about God bring people
closer to God give them permission to
feel connected to God make their lives
better like our lives are better because
we see and feel and and talk to and lean
on God that's what we're here for don't
be embarrassed don't be ashamed say it
out loud I've told you this story before
that I was once in Starbucks and there
were three women sitting at a table near
me they were I don't know what they were
working on business or they were on a
committee for the big I don't know what
they were working on but they got
frustrated about something and I wasn't
EAS dropping I was in fact trying to do
my own thing and distracted but then I
heard them say you know what let's pray
on it and all of a sudden the three took
hands at the table in the midd of
Starbucks said God please help us figure
out what we're supposed to do right now
I was just
like have you ever seen three religious
Jews in Starbucks say you know what
let's ask Hashem for help unclear what
we should do or we need help or we're
not making the budget or we don't know
how to make the plan or we don't know
how to figure this out let's ask Hashem
for help let's take out to hel and ask
let's in our own word have you ever seen
that I've never seen that I've never
done that but we should we should and
not without hesitation and without being
embarrassed that's our mission that's
our purpose oh there's more emails more
emails important emails next one is a
very painful email sad email a hard
email so we'll save it for for next time
but back to our one more okay the RIT
and
pasin she's the real po one
more
joea Z
joa again we we D he should be a to and
he should accept no and worship The One
and Only God but that said he's bringing
God into the conversation and for that
he
and hopefully the Yankees will sign him
dear Rabbi Goldberg you always say the
Amun emails that do not have a happy
ending are your favorite ones and that
inspired me to write today I don't have
an inspirational story to share I just
have raw emotions coming from someone
who feels hurt but know strongly that
hhm is orchestrating everything in my
life in a way that is perfect for me
I've been in sh for a number of years
and every day gets harder and more
painful it is torture to be in a society
that puts labels and negative
stereotypes on girls who are older as if
it is my fault
that I haven't met my Z yet I wish the
entire Jewish Community would listen to
your living with air so they understand
that everything in this world's from
Hashem and they would know to stop
judging people because ultimately
nothing in this world is in our
control as my birthday gets closer every
day I've been feeling very down I've
gotten to the point that it's really
hard for me to Davin I've been listening
to the Amun weekly and I've really kept
my spirits up and it gives me powerful
tools to use my suffering I have really
good relationship with Hashem and I talk
to him throughout every day but recently
I've gotten mad at Hashem I know that he
can send me my Ze give me BR that I
don't even know possible and yet he
hasn't and he doesn't seem to be doing
it I've tried every silly school that
exists I've cried rivers of tears I
screamed yelled and sweet talked to
Hashem I've reached a real low and I
don't understand why Hashem is making
this journey so hard for
me I haven't gotten a single sh
suggestion in
months and it really hurts it is so so
hard I've begged Hashem to send me a
sign that he cares I used to listen to
living with a my but right to school
every day today when I got onto the bus
I was so tempted to turn on some music
as I really wasn't in the mood to listen
to The Shear because I was feeling so
down however I choke back aab and did as
I knew was best for me and turned on
your sheer from yesterday June 6th right
at the beginning of the sh you told a
story about a man who had a really
challenging life was feeling down but
went into sh channeled his emotion and D
to hasem hasem sent him your daily dose
talk about him you remember that story
got back into his car moved his phone
didn't even on purpose but touched it in
a way that it played a status which
happened to be me telling a story that
he told me so he heard a message from
himself through me that was a crazy
amuna story you remember that crazy
ashaka story crazy ashaka story that was
I guess on June 6th and that's how we
began the share that day with that story
I got chills and started crying I cried
because I felt Hashem was sending me a
message and giving me a hug I also cried
because because I have DAV countless
times and poured my heart out to hasm
and even more times and I haven't gotten
my Yeshua despite that though I am able
to smile and hold my head high I know
hasm is doing this for my good when I
use the analogy that you gave today of
the virtual reality glasses I'm able to
know that societal pressures are fake
and purely an obstacle that hem is
putting my life to get me to grow I know
that thanks to Thea sh that Hashem loves
me more than I will ever know and even
though I feel upset at him right now
when we make
up our love will be stronger than it has
ever been
I love that I'm upset at him right now
but when we make up our love will be
stronger than it's ever been as you said
in the she today Hashem is going to heal
all of us spiritually physically and
emotionally and sh I'm sincerely looking
forward this was the last year two weeks
ago before sh and I hope I'll be able to
write soon that I'm able to see why hasm
is doing what he's doing in my life
until then I'm trying so hard to stay
positive focus on hhm's greatness that
he's doing this for my ultimate benefit
I know hashm will say my princess the
time has come
May Hashem continue to give the strength
and wisdom blah blah blah blah put the
right words in your mouth that I need to
hear every time I listen to the she I
feel like you're talking directly to me
deeply appreciative has should bench you
and the
family thank you from the bottom of my
heart and we DAV that soon very soon not
too soon because she should date long
enough to know but soon we should get an
email that she's
engaged and celebrate her Sim together
so why do I say those are my favorite
emails because the shoe store stayed
open and we made the traffic and we got
there I love they're beautiful they're
wonderful i d for my cousins to come
they came from Israel we had an amazing
time fantastic amazing I love those keep
keep writing them keep writing them I
want to hear them I need to hear them we
all need to hear them they are amazing
but the most amazing are the people who
say I don't have the guy on the plane
who wrote a poem I don't know what you
call that style of poem but he wrote a
poem right delay delay he wrote a poem
and I don't it turns out and it could be
he didn't make the connection he didn't
make it to the event and he didn't make
it with all his siblings and he's still
sticking with the plan he's still
sticking with him he's still sticking
with staying calm and not feeling stuck
and knowing I'm always where I'm meant
to be those those are the emails they're
all amazing emails please keep writing
them don't hesitate because I say I like
the ones that don't have they're all
amazing please keep writing them back to
of mos Shapiro ramuna and his amazing
safer about on page page 23 we'll have
to make more copies in the future we're
up
to in addition to the feeling in the
heart in addition to the daily living of
amuna our attitude our approach our
perspective like the emails we just read
but the actual expression or
manifestation or practice of amuna each
day a demonstration or affirmation of
amuna each day is when we answer aain
person makes a and we say we studied
previously that
the person who answers
aain every ounce of their being they've
opened the gates to giden which means
that previously they were locked how do
we get back to ganen where ad
marish undeniably with certainty knew
there was a Hashem how do we get back to
seeing into ganen when you say when you
answer what is where does the word come
from is
it's an
acronym every time you say to someone's
which is even greater than the person
who said the what are you saying what
are you saying to answer aain what are
you saying scream
it it's a real aain not a mumbled domain
not an a while you're still texting it's
an A A aain what's that aain
God who's the he is the reliable
dependable King we spoke about like
building a
bias that we wish for the we wish the
bride and groom that they build a home
AAS what is a reliable trustworthy
Dependable strong that you can lean on
it n faithful trustworthy
credible honoring each other so means
what the person is saying in the
means he is a reliable dependable King
yeah ditto absolutely 100% so I'm gonna
make a br and I'm gonna caffeinate with
kavana my second of the day
already that's what kind of day it is so
I'm gonna caffeinate with cavana I'm
gonna make a br and my BR is gonna say
as on our cup you can order we'll send
to you disposable or the permanent one
we don't make any money off of
it what the word
mean that
everything Not Just sh call this coffee
that God bless bless God for the coffee
wow one of the most important and
greatest discoveries in the history of
this world coffee coffee the caffeine
wakes you up the emotion a hot cup of
coffee a hot a hot cup of coffee in a
Danish is there not more Haba than that
a proper hot cup of coffee not a
milkshake not the milkshake with all the
milk and the and the sweet a proper
black coffee like a a proper coffee a
hot coffee in a Danish oh it doesn't
matter what else is going on in your
life it doesn't matter what else if you
can get access to a right you see people
in the in the cafeteria of the hospital
they got out of that room that gam for a
a h it's m Mason it gives you back your
life okay now that I expressed my love
for coffee I wrote my poem so so what's
the bra why am I saying because what's
the the on the cup of coffee or it could
make on the bottle of water what's
that not just the coffee I'm not just
blessing the farmer who planted the
Coffee Bean and blessing the rain that
nurtured That Grew that Harvest that
packaged that distributed the truck
driver who drove it the person who
ground it the person who packed it into
the K cup or the the Dunkin Donuts box
this there's seven million layers of
thank you Hashem to be able to get to
the point by the time I'm done it'll be
cold but to get to the point of this hot
cup of coffee so Hashem thank you for
the truck the truck driver thank you for
the farm the farmer the field the rain
thank you for the Dunkin Donuts and the
worker and the box and the cup of Joe
and the sponsor this this Shak
everything is from you thank you also
for the environment thank you for the
room and the lights and the air
condition thank you for the people and
the table and the comfortable
chair thank you for
everything everything is a
result that's the intention the that
goes into that and I'm gonna make it in
one second and when you answer aain to
it if you're listening later don't
answer aain but if you're if you're live
answer aain what do you saying when you
answer I have to make the sh why do I
have to make the sh because the gamar
says if I drink this coffee I don't make
the Sho you know what I did I just stole
if they hand me the cup of coffee and
Dunkin Donuts and I walk out and I
didn't pay I stole and if I take the cup
of coffee and I don't make a br and say
thank you Hashem I stole from him only
the Dunkin' Donuts deserves to get paid
only Starbucks deserves to get paid God
doesn't deserve to get paid what's the
currency with which we pay God AA that's
all he asks and the braa is really for
us not even for him so the currency that
we pay God is something that's for us
not even for him which is a br I would
never walk out of a of a store without
paying so how could I ever take a sip
without paying for it and say thank
youm so I have to make
the because if I don't make the BR I
can't take a sip of the coffee but you
when you say aain you're not getting
coffee you're not get coming back to
life but you're saying amain why for one
reason only you know what you're saying
when you say amain ditto yes I
believe yes I'm in I affirm I agree
there
is
yes 100% I'm in I agree but the farm and
the farmer and the truck the truck
driver and the beans and the grinding
and the box and the worker yeah
in he's he's reliable he's Dependable
he's faithful he's everywhere am in
answer that's how we open the gate to
ganen
not bad the man could have been better
we got to work on it but not
bad if coach maunu were
here he were given let me hear an AM
give me an amen he would be able to say
a real
am the obligation of
an is on the
when a person makes
that and ASAT they came out of the
bathroom and everything was working
person makes a br on lightning or
thunder person makes a br on B on spice
whatever someone around you is making
that BR on they are connecting God to
the her now they are bringing down God
to this physical world God is in the
cinnamon the spice that we smell God is
in the digestive system and the capacity
to eliminate the waste and hold on to
what I need the nutrients God is in the
cup of coffee the physical he God is in
the Thunder and the Lightning God is in
the mountains when a person makes a braa
they are bringing down God into the
physical world and the here and
now the physical world the material
world is inherently somewhat cursed
because it is disconnected from God and
our mission our mandate our purpose is
reconnected to God reconnected create
the connection there's a flow from
Hashem to this world and all the effort
of all the people who say there's no God
and I don't know if there's a God and I
don't believe in God and I don't follow
God and God doesn't get it right they
are creating a disconnect they are
severing the connection between this
physical world and everything in it and
God and every time we say AA and every
time you answer with all your might aain
to someone else's BR you are
reconnecting you are you're creating
that connection and the shefa the flow
of God and godliness and God energy and
light is coming down so if you would be
so willing to sit in Starbucks and take
hands with your friends and say let's
pray on it if you say I'm gonna make a
Braha you're meeting someone for lunch
you're meeting someone at Starbucks
you're coming out of the gym you're both
taking a sip of water and you say I'm
gonna say A braa you say A you say I
want to say a not we're in the middle of
a conversation someone swallowed their
BR the other person swallowed their BR
nobody heard of we're gonna do that you
are creating reconnections that are
going to bring down an energy and light
that are going to fill this world with
godliness and with God blessing that's
what we're doing that's the intent that
has to go into every aain and we make
the mistake because we think that's
childish ah little kids you teach them
to say am little kids you teach them to
make AA we are sophisticated mature
adults we are intellectuals and that's
kids stuff but we're wrong we're wrong
it's not kids stuff and our kids will
never do it if they don't see adults
doing it as adult stuff it's our stuff
reconnect create the pipes reconnect
reconnect so there can be that flow
hasem has so much blessing waiting he's
waiting he's waiting to unload it Hashem
has so much blessing that he's waiting
waiting to flow into this world but it
can't flow because there's a
disconnect the pipe is severed it's
buffering it can't connect but you know
why we get the high speed connection
when we bring him into this world
so that's why we have to
answer is trying to lift us out of the
here and now it's trying to stop and
pause and say I'm in the middle of
working out in the middle of shopping in
the middle of cooking I'm in the middle
of a business deal but I'm having a
water I'm having a
coffee one second everything in my life
and everything in this world it's all
you it's all you the coffee the spice
the lightning the Thunder that the
bathroom everything it's all you and
then now we made space and room now we
created the connection now the holy
blessing of hasem can flow there's no
CLE there's no vessel for him to flow
and there's no pipeline for him to flow
through if we don't create those
connections if we don't make that if we
don't answer to one
another you can't just scream a out of
nowhere
is the motto of amuna so why can't I
just get up in the middle of a room and
yell aain stand up in the middle of the
airport and yell aain get up on the
plane while we're delayed saw bit kesem
a few weeks ago some Rabbi with his
yamak and beard the plane was delayed
for like five hours people were going
crazy so he led all the adults on the
plane in a game of Simon
says I'm I'm sure he worked God into
that Simon Says and that's aidem it's
unbelievable so why not just get up in
the middle of the plane and yell oh man
don't try that at home but it's also not
something that we do or encourag why not
if aain is the motto of amuna just get
up and yell aain because the aain has to
fall on a br and the BR is the way that
we bring God into this world and the BR
can be caffeinate with kavana why do we
make these cups big thank you to Alana
land who helped design them caffeinate
with cavana because most people have
coffee first thing in the morning and
get your day started by caffeinating
with cavana don't Mumble the braa don't
forget to make a braa
don't swallow the braa faster than the
coffee stop and caffeinate with cavana
people have sent me they made the coffee
section in their kitchen where they have
their curve and carig or an espresso or
whatever coffee snob thing that they
have they put up a big sign go into our
sh Bas medish and the coffee area in it
has a big beautiful sign caffeinate with
cavana we're creating a movement
caffeinate with cavana don't just
caffeinate don't say once I caffeinate
then I can have cavana caffeinate with
cavana SH
so the has to go on a has to go on a so
when you hear someone make a when you
make the effort to hear someone make a
br when you demand somebody who didn't
make their BR outow they've stolen they
robbed they robbed you what on with
someone and they Mumble they start
eating he said what's you didn't make up
what did you do you denied me my I could
have
screamed I believe I affirm I'm in I see
him everywhere now I don't have my my
pipeline I could have screamed a and I
could have opened a highspeed connection
for bra in my life but you denied me an
a we shouldn't make that BR loud you're
with someone say Excuse me give me one
second it's okay it's okay the other
person will be grateful you gave them
the chance to answer aain aain has to
fall on a
br and when you hear a and you say
you attaching yourself to the connection
made between this world andem so someone
comes out of the BR the bathroom and
makes an ASAT it's a big deal in ashat I
read years ago I don't even know what
number year this is we're deep in the
hundreds but years ago I read Dr Prager
wrote in the journal maybe you edited it
was the journal I don't know which
Journal it was a Journal of Medicine
about the power of the
about about a young man who was in a car
accident that left him partially
paralyzed and had a catheter and
couldn't go to the bathroom and finally
after surgeries and therapy was able to
go to the bathroom and he came out and
he said the ancient blessing he writ in
amical Journal I'll post it in our
WhatsApp group today of as yatar anyway
I won't spoil it about who that young
man was how he finishes that article
but only the people who need to be
catheterized or only the person who has
a colostomy or the people who have to go
for infusions for their bowel disease
they appreciate what an ASAT is when
things don't work what what we think is
so natural and easy and should just be a
given and should be taken for granted
when it doesn't work you begin to
understand how humbling it is and how
important it is how about the people who
are so sick that they their body doesn't
hold on to any of the nutrients it all
flows right through them the people
whose body holds on to all the waste not
only the nutrients Hashem created the
most incredible sophisticated Factory in
the world and it's called the human body
and it knows how to hold on to nutrients
and get rid of waste and it is the most
incredible Factory in history and we
make a every time because we say keep
that factory working I desperately want
that factory to keep working and that's
an as and it takes moments it takes
seconds to say and when you say an aain
to the person who just came out of doing
the most animal
base thing which is to eliminate to go
to the
bathroom the most Base Animal thing and
they make a br and they say Hashem you
were even there thank you even for that
thank you thank you I made it to the
bathroom thank you there was a bathroom
thank you that it was clean thank you
that it flush thank you there's a
million Parts about thank you about the
bathroom it was available thank you
there's a million Parts about that and
thank you and someone says amen yeah I'm
in yeah Hashem you're in the bathroom
yeah what he said what she said
absolutely then you also get the
blessing of your factory will still work
you get the flow of blessing from Hashem
too and you knowem my comprehension
doesn't begin and end here I have no
idea how the human body in Factory works
I have no idea what it took to get this
cup of coffee I have no idea about
thunder and lightning but when I make
this bra I am admitting that even though
I don't know how it works I know that
you're behind it I know that it's all
about
you I want to attach myself to you to
you I want to be connected to you Hashem
you're my brand you're it you look
around this room people are wearing
logos I do too it's the most bizarre
thing in the world Adidas and Nike and
whatever sports team should be paying us
to promote them and yet you pay a
premium to buy the Nike hat the Adidas
pants you could get a generic brand the
Costco Kirkland brand and it costs more
to have the privilege to promote their
brand Nike should pay you but you have
to pay them and you have to pay a
premium to have the privilege to promote
their brand and we all do it we all do
it why do we do it why do we do it I'm
not going to psychoanalyze this all now
but because why do we do it because if
Nike or Adidas or whatever brand is cool
and if I wear it and I have the logo of
it now cool I now attached myself to it
what it stands for what it represents
people see it they think winner they
think success I wanted to see me and
think winner and think success so I wear
their brand I wear their brand that's
true for for Logos and it's true for
sports teams and it's true for designer
where when I was a kid the little Polo
logo was this big and now the polo logo
is this big and you know what we do we
pay extra for the privilege of wearing a
logo that takes up half of our shirt I
don't I don't have any I didn't then and
I don't now but the polar logo is only
getting bigger and
bigger sooner it'll be like you know
from head to toe you look like you're
actually sitting on the horse that's how
big the polar logo is gonna get that's
how big it's gonna get why so why do
people wear it I don't know Ralph Lauren
is laughing his way to the to the bank
why do people wear it because if that's
success if that's winner if that's style
if that's in I want to be connected so
when you say aain what you're saying is
I'm attaching myself to the brand of
Hashem I'm attaching to the brand of hm
I wear Hashem amain I'm proud and I'm
privileged and I'm Unapologetic and
amain with all my might amain I am
connecting I am attaching I am promoting
the brand of hem that's me that's what
I'm about we should all be Z to answer
