human nature to be authentic especially these days especially the millennial generation and Beyond we're very into being authentic and it's a double-edged sword it's beautiful and it's detrimental if we pull it off it's beautiful and if we can't get find within our hearts to be authentic it's it's harmful how many divorces happen because people don't feel like they're being authentic right how many people give up jobs and are on the streets because they can't stick their job because they're not authentic they don't believe in it in the cause they can't so they don't want to make the money it happens right this is that this is the generation it's the generation right before the coming of mashiach where there's going to be total authenticity we're getting close but before mashiach comes it can be detrimental somebody who says I'm authentic and I want to have Bittle to God I want to concede to God but I'm not feeling it I will not go through those motions I'm gonna bow to God when I don't feel it in my heart I'm gonna lie to myself I'm gonna lie to God I'm gonna fake I'm gonna pretend I'm gonna pretend that I that I that I feel that I'm part of a bigger mission that I have a soul but when I don't really feel it the talmud says yes and if you don't you're like a snake you're embodying clipper you have the opportunity to experience bittel and if not just behaviorally it's still valuable even if our Beatles just Behavioral even if we're not fully authentic we're not fully internally lined up we're not fully emotionally engaged in our relationships even just behaviorally engaged there is meaning there it matters if I put on to fill in and I don't feel the connection with God but I'm doing it that matters still if I celebrate Shabbos but I don't feel like I'm in a different plane in time I'm just going through the motions of not doing what I should be doing it's not ideal but it's still meaningful to God by study Torah I don't feel The Godly connection I just beautiful wisdom it's still meaningful to God even if I'm not fully authentically lined up I'm just going through the behavior it still matters there was a hasid of revision is quite wealthy and he was quite charitable as well and he told the ultra I'm considering cutting back on charity because I don't feel that I'm giving from a place of authenticity it tends to be more about me than about who I'm giving and the Alternatives don't cut back you may not be giving it with authenticity but the recipients are hungry and they're receiving it with authenticity we may not feel like our Mitzvahs are being done with full authenticity I'm not perfect right I'm not in the I'm not feeling spiritual so I'm gonna lie to myself and put on fill in gonna lie to myself and and start going to show we're gonna lie to myself and start saying that this is who I am and start praying and lighting shabba's candles and keeping kosher when that's not who I am internally and the answer is yes if you're not feeling the modem you still got a bow that's what the tablet says otherwise we're embodying because we just through action have an incredible opportunity action is so meaningful and by the way that's the real Bittle that I can do truth even if I don't feel truth because it's not about my feelings it's about the truth it's not about me
