And time is a traitor comparable to scales. Who says you're going to have more time to do this? Chuva. The creator of time promised otherwise if you desecrate. But you want this honor. You want this money. And you don't understand that. It's like the illusion of a scale. The scale. The old scales. What is it? Like you have if you look at most lawyers and judges have these old scales either in their office or a picture on their cards and offices. We had weights. Yeah. Two plates, two cups of some kind. You put more weight on one side than the other. What happens? The more weight, you know, it's more weight because it goes down and the less weight goes up. So it looks like the says it looks like the winner is the guy that goes up. But that's an illusion. It's the opposite. The guy that's low, that's the winner. Because why is he low? Because he has all the money, he has all the weight, he has everything. He says seeking seeking honor, seeking money, seeking all the things. It's an illusion. You make you think that you're on top. In reality, the person that you think is on the bottom, he's higher than you. He's better than you. Why? He has Torah. He has understanding of why he's alive in the world. He's fulfilling the purpose of life.
