it's hard to get the feeling that the
coming human nor I am represent to all
of us we all want to do teshuva
everybody everybody in the world there
isn't anyone who does not feel I want to
become better I want to become stronger
I want to do more mitzvot there are
certain of a road certain bad things I
want to stay away from there is not a
Jew in the entire world that does not
want to become better the only thing is
we have to know how do we achieve it I
said last year I want to be better
was I not much better I don't know I
said the year before I want to be better
am I better than two years ago I don't
know I hope I didn't slip so how is it
that I motivate myself to become better
how is it that I understand that I want
to pray better I want to dive in better
I want to learn better I want to do a
better has said I want to listen elder
Erica meme I want to listen to the great
said he came better and followed their
words how do I do it that is what
basically I believe Rosh Hashanah is all
about in Yom Kippur it's about the
motivation of myself being able all of
us individually being able to do teshuva
so how do we do it how do I make sure
that this year is different that this is
the year that's going to make the
difference that I'm going to be so fair
for everything good and I can actually
become different not the same like it is
every year it's an interesting thing
ksama Vanya said Sadiq LaRocca cicuta
again Elena it's good to be Megan all of
all of us all the whole world so he said
an interesting thing there was a man he
was going together with another fellow
and he was travelling between towns he
was on the road and it started raining
and hailing and it was cold and they
were afraid they would make it through
the night maybe it's gonna be the
elements are too strong
they will perish they'll die all of a
sudden a carriage comes along carriage a
man on the top of the carriage of the
big hood on and underneath it's a
compartment where you can say he pulls
to the side of the road then he says to
them coming in would you like to come on
the carriage it's a bad night raining
and pouring huh
are you kidding this is like Matano that
came from heaven
Shem just sent us this of course we want
to go in so they go inside to open the
door they go in the carriage one sits
down on one side a little bench and the
other sits down on the other side not
bad
no rain no hail no win there inside nice
cozy and warm all of a sudden the man
taps his leg there is something in the
middle in the middle where they're
sitting they look down a little bit of
light comes into the window and they see
it's orange it's a place for a mace with
an Oran coughing already it wasn't the
same trip any boy there they're together
with the are on may theme sitting there
okay
but still they don't have to have the
rain they don't have to have the wind
they don't have the hell it's still dry
everything is good they're sitting there
everything's going along good all of a
sudden they see that the mint then if
star begins moving he's moving around he
starts getting up oh no no what's going
on they're both screaming the wagon
driver hears something going on and they
begin to tell him shove that fall shove
go back go back down the wagon driver
says wait wait wait wait reg hold on for
a minute
everything is ok there was a guy just
like you that wanted to come in he was
very tired he was a sojourner so I told
him to come in he says do you mind if I
lie down he said I'm not sure that you
want to lie down but if you want to you
could so he lied down it was nice in
there what is it
some about you says the whole year we
get a ride it's a ride we're riding all
um I said all of us and I thought that
ìiím we're riding along and we take a
ride sometimes it's a nice ride
sometimes not so nice sometimes there's
a few things in the road but we still
take the ride then all of a sudden it
comes to be Rosh Hashanah it comes to be
the Amaze Leah called Baraka meme and
all of a sudden we all have heat on Ruth
we all have inspiration and we begin to
get excited and we understand that it's
the time we're going to say just in a
few days all of the retardant soaked and
all the things that we're going to read
about the day of judgement me yeah all
the things that we're going to learn key
Vacarro ed Robertson Otaka chief tow
that we all going under the shavette the
shave it that Hashem counts us in all
the days in all the years they had are
counted so a person gets excited we get
nervous we get a little bit upset when
they start saying that V joy we all get
a little upset but then after a while
the younger ìiím pass shove be
everything be quiet everything is gonna
be good once again everything is going
to be nice Seska comma vadia that a
person has to learn from the entire idea
of the UM the Rhoyne not to lose the
inspiration not to lose the excitement
to carry it with us from the first day
of Elul
Rosh Hashanah continuing on until way
way past Sukkot in the year but how do
we do it
so here is a suggestion and I'd like to
read to you a Rambam it's a Rambam who
codifies the laws of shofar and it's in
the first paragraph - debate omec - how
you talk in Barrow Shoshanna be
chauffeured akkad they used to blow the
chauffeur one chauffeur which they had
sewed throat minute studying and from
either side there was two trumpets okay
I'll show from my rear the chauffeur
would blow long maharaja road maquettes
road but the hot sytrus they would blow
short sham its Vata yom be shofar
because the main Mitzvah is shofar very
interesting there it says that an
individual should have a tremendous heat
or root from hearing the shofar that
they take all of the lessons that were
supposed to learn they inspire
themselves they get excited they
understand what it is to do chuva they
understand what i have to bear in mind
that goes on during these days times
sulfur writes the following bucket sites
royce with coal shofar hurry oh but HUD
sites royce the trumpets were Kolchak or
hurry you it sounded rush a tables
it has the head letters the acronym of
boosha boosha embarrassment shame I got
to have shame like we say in the video
hurry
Aniela funakichi flee male Busha off
Lima I'm like a vessel filled with shame
and embarrassment that's what we say by
this Lee code so what does it mean it
means that in order for a person to
understand that maybe we have to do
teshuva
we got to have a little bit of
shame not a lot but a little bit of
embarrassment if I went and I did that
Vader if I did something wrong and I
never felt bad about it so I'll never
come to really doing teshuva I'll do a
little tissue Bob because I realized
that it's the time of DIN and I have to
do something so I'll hit my heart I will
try I'll say the V joy but will I feel
it not unless a person hits the
slightest bit of embarrassment and that
embarrassment is the thing that we have
to work on all of us that we walk in a
sham watches us no matter where we're at
no matter how hidden we are behad rated
RM that Hashem sees us and from that I
have to understand that there are things
that I'm not proud of things that went
on in the past I'm not proud of
I hurried through the Telos I'm not
proud of it one day I said something to
my mother and maybe I shouldn't have
said it it was too harsh and I'm not
proud of that I'm embarrassed my mother
she gave to me birth she woke up in the
middle of the night she gave to me the
bottle she changed me she cared she went
without food to give me food and now I
went and I spoke against her I spoke
words that were not nice I got to be
embarrassed this is the way that we have
to go in this world I did something that
maybe was a mitzvah that I didn't put
enough cavanaugh into I have to be a
little bit embarrassed that's the way
that we have to approach it it will
approach it in that way so listen to
this any person that has guilt or
embarrassment if they have Busha so it
says the following any Busha that a
person has over any Avira more clean
I'll call Ivana top that the person is
forgiven for all of their ave wrote that
means not only for the veyron that i was
embarrassed about that I didn't speak to
my mother nicely and I'm embarrassed
about it I'm forgiven for that I am
forgiven for
all the other wrote that I did only
thing that I have to do is to be
embarrassed to be a little bit shame I'm
sorry how did I do that I always
wondered how does a person come to
embarrassment and in fact it's a lock ah
if somebody comes in so we know in order
to touch your wine that you'll be able
to use it it has to be someone who has
emunah it has to be someone who is show
me Shabbat if they touch your wine it's
not lavage ow
you cannot use it however we learn in
your idea that if the person would be
embarrassed if they would see an atom
cashews and they would not be McHale
Shabbat in front of him they wouldn't do
anything wrong then you can trust it why
because they have Busha they have
embarrassment they do feel for something
the only thing is they haven't worked to
be embarrassed in front of a sham but in
front of an atom casual they are afraid
so if they're smoking the cigarette
unless Shabab Kozma Shalom and all of a
sudden they see you walking down the
street and I'm casual and they say whoa
they put the cigarette behind their back
and they hide it don't worry if they
touch your wine so great is the element
of Busha so great is the element of
shame that they understand that mulling
low I'll call a bolo table that they get
Mahela for all of their RV rows for all
of them it's an amazing thing
furthermore let me give one step further
by Amish well I'll show no more here
Gaston e la la so see why did you raise
me up to disturb me he was upset he was
already in the other world
so she well said to show why you raised
me up why did you do that Joe said to
him ah
Salima oh please I didn't raise you up
from the dead for no reason I had a good
reason why because I BIG's are who
police team they'll come in be the
police team are after me the path the
Felicia Maher getting me nervous that
they may overrun me Bello Kim sir male
I and a Shamus turned away Hashem to
Valentina sham did not answer me did not
answer me out beyond the vm gamba hallo
boat I tried to ask in the beam I tried
that's the profits of I should go to war
if I'm gonna win or not
I asked in Columbus I made all types of
different poulos to find out the answer
the crawler Carlo da Niemeyer said I had
to raise you up from the other side to
know what should i do should I go to war
shouldn't go to war I have to ask
so there's a great question Rashi says
why did it of course we know show
lamella should have asked what in order
to know whether to go to war or not
we're in Matua me just ask should I go
to war or not and it will light up and
the way the person will know directly
from uh Shem the answer is no he was not
going to get an answer because he killed
out no Eric on him because he did
something that he shouldn't have done he
was not going to be answered so he was
embarrassed to bring it up he didn't say
I went to consult to ARIMA to him and
they didn't answer me I got no answer
whatsoever because of his own
embarrassment that is unreal because of
that we learned in oil bathe hoof I'll
evolve there it says yachts Tabasco vu
Umrah Bahia Shem he is the chosen one of
our Shem and in fact it was given to him
the answer Baksh well uh nobody told him
mehar October now for a me tomorrow you
are all together with me I'm gonna be
Oakland on Emmy mimicking sassy you are
together with me in my confine why
because he had Busha because he was
afraid he was ashamed so how do you get
us how does a person get ashamed
it's a brazen world it's the world that
a person could say anything that they
want at any time and you're allowed to
get away with anything and people will
do it in the straight like it says in
the Mishnah everybody knows in at times
it
Nishioka it says that the young people
will spit in the face of this k name it
says a lot of things will happen
there's no Busia who cares who cares
what happens today I'll say whatever I
want to whomever I want
so it's interesting thing I went to
Miami and there was a Rob who was in
northern Florida and he wanted that I
should come to say Asher you're
beautiful so I flew into this place and
there was a fellow picked me up it was
three hours until this she were started
she says Robbie I would like to take you
to the museum I have with the dough I
brought a few sorry but no no it's quick
I just want to show you some amazing
Museum just a little bit I could not
talk this guy out of going to the museum
no matter what he took me the museum and
I went I went with him short thing it's
a big big Union to make another Jew
happy if I'll be miss American to go the
museum should be a cappella so I took
him in the museum it's a hands-on
experience I went down and there was
exhibit you go in each exhibit the first
exhibit you go in by yourself
and it's in front of a mirror they close
the door and you stand in front of the
mirror open the door you go to the next
when you go around then after about 20
minutes you come to the end and at the
end on the other side
I hear what I'm coming to the end people
are screaming with laughter people are
having the time of their lives
they cannot stop laughing they bent over
what is it the last room that you go to
is a two-way mirror when you look in
that first room the people went into the
mirror they can see from the other side
what the people are doing do you know
what a person does in front of the
mirror
don't let your mind go you can't imagine
people making faces they're doing all
kinds of funny things right and then the
other person is watching and everybody's
laughing and I'm standing there crying
not that I did anything in front of the
mirror but I began to think to myself I
enroll Oz in Shabazz Muhammad al-abbas a
predictive in the eye sees the ear that
hears and all of our my seem are written
down in the safer I began to think to
myself how clear it is from that then a
person never knows Busha that means that
sometimes I have to understand that I
need to take some shame and put it into
my life I need to think about it I need
to worry about what exactly am i doing
and how is it going to be perceived how
embarrassed we are we say one word we
said something to another individual it
didn't come out right and then I say I'm
so embarrassed I could just I won't say
that word
why because of Busha it is so so
embarrassing to us I can't even take it
I'm too nervous about the whole thing
how interesting column abend Panetta
Maryborough beam ke lo hago if a person
embarrasses another individual in public
so we see how great is embarrassment if
we only have a little bit of
embarrassment over something that we
have done or over the past year that is
unbelievable because is the key it is
the muffed out to a person having
complete Mithila what else can you do
immediately to get such Mithila very few
things me give you one more example we
know that at the time the erin was
nervous to approach the MIS pea
irenna Cohen was embarrassed he was
nervous to go to the Miss Bell so
Michelle Ribeiro said Erin what's going
on here La Motta bouche
why are you embarrassed why are you
afraid that you're the coin you're
supposed to go to these baths of course
you should go look out the bush why are
you afraid so the reason was everybody
knows when Aaron went so he pictured
that the miss bath was like an eagle he
had a part in the eggless of whatever he
did he had to do it but still he had a
part when he came there he pictured it
he saw the agel in front of him and he
recoiled he went back how can I do it
say go I'm reminded of my formula of a
road
what did mushroom a no tell him Lacock
Novato because of that you were chosen
why so the before him tell us the reason
is is because he was embarrassed because
he saw the a go because he remembered
the old thing that he did and he was
shamed over it that is specifically why
he was the one that was chosen to be the
chef see boar for bnei yisrael that's an
unbelievable thing of a person we'll
think about it how an individual is able
to see certain things and be able to
approach it even if they're embarrassed
now I will tell you something an
interesting thing we should overcome
that embarrassment to doom it's vote
even if one time we were upset even if
one time we did something and we messed
up in the middle don't be embarrassed
it's a mitzvah you go right to it and
you do it a very interesting thing
happened someone who's in Queens a very
big singing star very big singing star I
asked and I'm going to tell you what
took what the South was they came to me
from Israel a family of about eight
people to the dining room they came to
my dining room they had a special need
that they wanted to tell me about there
is a girl lo elena boyko beta-cell who
Nina needs a kidney
and they brought her they sat there and
I began to talk with them none of them
religious and I began to tell them
we got to do something some money had to
be raised said to be taken care of and
so forth and I made a whole plan how to
do it with all of them with the family
and and they said thank you very much
and they were gonna call me I did not
take anyone's number they don't call me
I began to make plans I began to do
things nobody called me I figured what
it she doesn't eat it she doesn't need
it but they came they don't need it well
I was crying there I was crying
a young woman needs a kidney like that a
girl not too
I didn't understand it two months later
I get a call I would like to come to
your house with my family I didn't cop
it's the same family they came back all
of them back in the dining room and I
said but tell me you were here we were
supposed to start right away what
happened no no no no we came and we saw
that you're Dottie and we knew you
wouldn't help us that wouldn't help you
I love anybody
I will help anybody that's not matter to
me who it is and any one will help
anyone there's not qualifications of who
to help however we called the same
person again and he said I told you to
go to Goa sir you didn't go through a
gold one yes we did but he's done so
what does that have to do with it go
back to him and he pushed him they
should go back I want to tell you what a
kiddush Hashem was the girls from the
Beit Yaakov took her back and forth for
dialysis the trip was 45 minutes because
she was very tired afterwards they got a
huge car and they set up a pillow and a
blanket like a bed with a sheet in the
back they constantly took him back and
forth they brought her food they saw to
her they visited her they did everything
finally the
was a kidney that was available we
needed money so I called somebody from
Queens a big star he was not always from
we're not always religious and I said
would like to make a concert and I would
like you to be the person that would
sing he told me the Rob is calling I'll
do it immediately we set up I didn't
realize the place that they had gotten
was a nightclub ok nightclub but wasn't
a nightclub on that night revered oh
don't worry it wasn't I said it was a
nightclub but on that night it was only
for our use so I go he picked me up he
came in from Queens picked me up and
this Kohath the star he goes and he
asked me the address it told me address
we get out
he sees the building master Shia he sees
the building he puts his head against
the wall I cannot go in I said why
he told me I used to play in this club
and it wasn't right
I'm embarrassed to go inside to this
club I said what you have to I cannot
when I see this club I see everything
that it represents I told him what we
just learned when our of the coin came
and he saw the meets bath and he saw the
a go and he said I can't do it
I can't go any further it's impossible
it reminds me of something
well sharavino said Lacock Nakata that's
the reason why you were chosen to go in
I told him you're chosen you go in
you're met Akane you will rectify all
the the tikkun for everything that was
done in the past will be tonight he went
in and I tell you the truth if you ever
saw somebody that had to force
themselves I'm standing by the door he
had to force himself force himself to
walk in the door
is a hozeva Chava he goes in all I can
tell you that when he's saying a certain
song about Emunah everybody was moved to
tears
everybody everybody that night enough
money was raised the young woman got her
kidney the whole family made a su da da
da they wrote about you do doc Ranaut
they called me hat see ma la I told them
I'm not hot see I'm Charlene but okay
they went back the whole family and
every once in a while I get a regard to
them that's bullsháá that is what a
person is able to feel the embarrassment
another another interesting example what
happened
by Yeshua scholarship a lo keem miss
Alice began other merkava they did a big
Avera they got one little Mitzvah that
they had to observe don't eat from the
ate saudade one Mitzvah everybody says
if I wouldn't be Jewish so I only have
seven bits up and they know I'm not a
problem it would be a cinch
you find me some people that are able to
watch this sheva mitzvos bnei know I can
oh I'll tell you it's not so simple to
find okay so one Mitzvah and
unfortunately they didn't do it so what
happened so they heard a sham they heard
a sham coming into GaN he was walking
they heard him approaching like Hebei
are dumb beasts o myth national who came
all the macabre they went to hide they
went down hi you know arrayed they had
underneath the table they're hiding from
a Shem
oh no good rubella Micaiah said what was
it it was they had great Busia
they had great embarrassment she's le
carré that is the main idea of the chuva
Hibou shamaness eight remaining back
ayah says the
fact that they went and they were
embarrassed that in itself was Chava do
you ever wonder why they were able to
live did you ever wonder what happened
with them that even kyon did teshuva
that's what happens when a person is
able to gain a little bit of inspiration
to be embarrassed and what was it Hashem
made for them remember from the leaves
they were able to cover themselves
because they realized that when they
were without clothing so why was it from
the tree so the before him say because
the Taccone came in rectifying that are
sin in being mythic and Avera the way to
do it was by using the leaves from that
tree which would now mean that they
would have the tea cone for what they
did wrong this is something that if a
person realizes the depth of what bush
is if they realize the depth of all the
things that a sham wishes us to
understand about our lives in this world
then it is on a much much different
level I was a boy in yeshiva yeshiva
knees Flatbush and I remember there used
to be a guy that would come in every day
I would say his name but I'll say his
name I mean so Carla talked he used to
come in a shopping bag guy whatever a
man from the streets the older man and
there would be a coupon it would be a
pushing on the wall from her be mayor
ballin s he would come in in the middle
of a seder everybody would be learning
nicely while learning and he would come
in with some coins all of a sudden he
would start to shake and he would start
to tremble and he would start yelling to
look and everybody would begin laughing
every day because he was putting the
money in he disturbed the whole Seder
and everybody it was like a matinee
everybody was laughing in the afternoon
because he was putting on this whole
thing he meant it he meant it one day
there was a
a rough that came in from nearby he came
in to premium huh and afterwards he
stayed to learn he saw this Jaime come
in and start with stuck and shaking and
yelling and he saw the guys laughing
after Jaime left he came up and he
clapped he said you know it's
interesting we laughing at him right now
after 120 years we'll go up to shibaemon
gun Adan and will stand between all the
great study came in Russian CID Conneaut
and who knows who will be laughing at
who at that point our life in this world
is to help to understand each of us what
does it mean what does it mean that a
person should be able to hold their head
high when somebody says a sham no but
God no goes on though and they mean it I
don't mean goes all new he probably
stole I never stole anything he borrowed
OFI I never said a word said anything
he's odd no you think I'm deceitful
person huh Lots no I'm the serious
person in the world I never tell jokes
there are people I guess like it's a
unified video for everybody so I have to
be made about there for other people
myself I'm only maybe one of the things
there the other things but none of it
says hey Adam Osamu not only I got to
worry about your shampoo but every Avira
that starts with an olive internet I
mean know that into whatever I shall go
they wrote that start with a given with
a dollar but hey I don't even want to
think about it but Bush no we are
embarrassed when I see that I get
embarrassed when I see that I shake
because I'm ashamed I know I did
something I'm not gonna say didn't do
anything I did do it
Who am I gonna say I didn't do it it's a
big mixer to say that we did do it
you
Madame they cut a damn right he did a
varus awesome said a Dom you ate from
date Sadat you know what he said
a healthy I ate well it's a load I'm
gonna eat more he says I ate and I'm
gonna eat more I did that there I'm
gonna do it again so you know what it's
like I don't know if they had this when
you were in school they said a truant
officer
if you cut school right you ditch school
and you're in the pizza shop or
somewhere so the officer came and said
uh young man where are you from which
school he had to say okay come with me
you got into trouble right so what if
the truant officer comes there he sees
him in a pizza shop and he says okay
yosef tell me what are you doing there
she says officer I tell you the truth
I'm cutting school right now
and next Wednesday with a cut school
again huh how could he do such a thing
it's an impossibility but it says that
beret olam loved what he said that I
Shem loved what he said so how could it
be you know the reason because Adam knew
himself he confessed and he said I know
that I might do it again that is he is
sewed into chuva I know that I didn't
Avira I know that I did something wrong
and I'm afraid that I may repeat it that
is something that's beautiful that is
something when a person can admit that
they did something wrong we also say
Bose knew McCallum we are embarrassed
from every nation so the Great
Manchester Russia Sheba of Segel's if
it's illegally brought fast a question
what does it be emotionally : we're
worse than any nation
we're not worse we're not maybe the
nations don't like us but we're not
worse I'm you surround me calm Kakaako
Barrett's who is like cloud yourself
where is this such guy said where is
this such learning where is this such
care about the world where there's such
loyal citizens where are there people
that worry about a sham where are there
people that worry about mankind and
humankind
in establishing truth injustice and
everything
where's our people like Claudius or L
where's our people that are so
downtrodden with all the current
situations and politically and so forth
and sanctions against eretz yisrael
cosmic Sholem all the where is there a
nation like lies out there isn't there
isn't any none could compare but we say
motion McCollum so what the Manchester
receiver said is that sometimes a person
picks up things from the outside world
and from the outside world we have to be
embarrassed
Bost McCollum I pick up a little bit
over here I pick up a little bit over
there and in the meantime I get a little
bit nervous because maybe it is worn off
on me the outside world the beauty the
beauty of Torah anytime the beauty of
Torah anytime is that it gets to every
place in the world and it is able to
offset brush no McCollum because people
around the world they could see all
kinds of things on the internet all
kinds of things 8 Sadat's toys Marah but
what did they watch they watch urine
they watch every kind of shoe on every
possible minion on every Yom Tov on
every myths on every possible in janosh
kappa that's the unreal thing so we
don't have to say Bush to me : because
they save us from that it's a difficult
thing for us to know but even in the way
that a person may know that perhaps I
could be better if we listen to people
around the world and we take from them
and we realize what people go through
certain hardships then we feel a lot
different about our own other da I would
like to give you just two examples just
two very simple examples there is a
person that I saw he was learning in the
Beit Midrash he was learning
so I walked over to him and he said to
me could I ask you some words that I
don't understand I said sure
could you tell me this word he asked me
a word in the Mishnah and I told him
what it means he said could you tell me
this word and I told him that I came
back in the same beit midrash seven
hours later and the guy was sitting
there as soon as I can't says I I don't
want to bother you Rebbe and he meant it
I felt so bad who could I ask you
another couple what was that word then
he writes it as that word I said I'm
sorry could you tell me were you here
since I came in in the afternoon he says
yes I said you stayed here all the time
he said it was it okay this was okay
you're holding up the world I said okay
the world is on your shoulders and I
thought to myself he has a problem with
translating a few words in a Mishnah in
he sits for seven hours uninterrupted
goldwasser hold on for a second it's
article did you sit seven hours maybe
you could touch the whole thing up maybe
you know the whole minute maybe you know
the whole Gemara did you sit seven hours
no Cebu sure I understand it I know what
they're going through that's an
unbelievable thing
it's mchavez it obligates us there's a
woman that comes to me Shabbat morning
before Dominick before Tila she said I
have a question for you I want to know
if I did something wrong if I have to do
teshuva I said you don't have to tell me
what you did you don't you save me joy
to a sham you're not to tell me no no I
have to say she said I know I'm not
doing something right and I'm
embarrassed about this is an older woman
older woman I said okay she said before
I come in
- fela I do the whole thing in less than
a kodesh I pray the whole thing in
Hebrew when I come in to pray together
with everybody I do it in English
because I don't understand the Hebrew am
i doing a nivara I say to myself who can
even imagine this woman she's actually
Dominik twice sometimes you know comes
on Kippur and you start looking through
the bouncer how many pages left and this
lady is vomiting twice two three load
that's the whole thing
Shukria masaf everything twice and she's
asking me it's Ana Vera you know I took
my sitter that morning I promise you I
prayed
like I never prayed before I don't like
in everybody this is what she did this
is unreal one more one more
I must tell you how you could become
embarrassed they invited me there is an
international organization for people
that do not have the gift of hearing to
hear they invited me to be the speaker
and I came there were many people not a
lot of from but many that were religious
many others came from around the world
for various questions various gazook
that they needed all types of things
they came for everybody had their own
reasons and I was to give a sh a or to
everyone together with a interpreter and
all the people are supposed to come
it's a few minutes before thousand
people walking around few minutes before
my shear the head of the Convention says
hey excuse me a rabbi goldwasser I said
yes she says I'm sorry to tell you this
evening we have an advocate an advocate
from for the deaf community in
Washington this man advocates for the
needs of the deaf he is a very important
speaker and everyone will want to hear
him unfortunately rabbi we had no choice
but we had to schedule him the same time
as you so please forgive us it's very
important I know because you're a big
rabbi you'll understand right you'll
understand and you'll you'll be okay
that's it fine they gave to me a little
room they gave the Advocate a huge room
in a convention hall huge hotel
magnificent I'm there and the
interpreters standing there they give me
a nice podium and there are five people
in the room okay it's not the comments
it's quality not quite at the I said
figure good excellent we have already
I'm assuming we could say barakaatuh
Mazzone there a problem
mean Jana we know God but we got that
all of a sudden a few more people came
then a few more people came then a group
came in another group they changed my
room so people didn't know where I was
the good head of the convention didn't
bother to tell him where to show you it
was then they began to find out there
were so many people that crowded into
the room I cannot tell you what a key
discussion is the head of the convention
came back in by oh boy yeah I got
nervous when I saw him he said rabbi I
was afraid what he's gonna tell me next
he said there's a little difficulty with
the room it doesn't going big enough so
we want to switch it to a different room
went to a different room filled up from
front to the back filled filled people
came to learn to her not me they came to
learn Torah people from all over the
world from France and from Italy from
everywhere they came in just to learn
from Israel all over I gave this year
and I'm ready to such beautiful giant
giant men and women it's unreal however
as I began there were two women that
were sitting in the front and the two
women are playing some kind of a game
like this I don't mind if somebody reads
a you have a say for a book I don't mind
the people knit in the middle of this
year I don't mind whatever people
doesn't matter but this kind of a thing
I can't take it is too much so you know
you don't need to have a PhD in
psychology when you try to ignore
something you zero in right on them
right I tried to ignore it and it's got
the irony muscare hey yo I couldn't
ignore it and I got so then I tried to
turn a little bit like this way you know
look at them and then go like this back
and forth back and forth
finally I said boy I ol um I got a
challenge here please it's a Nissan I
prayed this morning loli they Nissan I
said you gave me help me help me beam
it's got there help me that I should be
strong so Hashem helped me I gave this
your it was the most incredible thing
and the the the interpreter kept saying
please wrap I slowed now you're talking
too fast please little and the people
it was unreal they're asking at several
times they were able to ask questions at
the end everybody was able to come up
whoever wanted to ask a question is a
lie it's uh they were able to walk up
and a lot of people asked unbelievable
questions what do they do for shofar on
Rosh Hashanah how they you'd say the
Mitzvah another person asked me they're
in I think there came from France and
they don't have possibilities for shidou
him what would I suggest that they
should do to facilitate she do him for
them another person asked me a question
that in their local community there's a
very good school for their children that
are hearing impaired
Lowell a no how
her the problem is that there's no
Judaism for them
is it worth while to come to move to the
United States or a different country
where there is a school and uproot the
children from this school and have to
learn a new language all kinds of things
and the people waiting in line at the
end of the line I see the two women you
know the ones like this I see the two
women so I figured oh hey /m I'm gonna
have what to say to these people you
know you got to say it the right time
okay yeah a semi-circle you got to know
when to give Musa
I see them coming up everybody else was
gone
and then I see that the older woman has
her hand on the arm of the younger girl
and she's walking and the older woman is
looking straight ahead with her eyes
closed Busha they come and stand in
front of me the younger girl said Rebbe
we came to ask you a few questions we
missed a couple of things in this year
you see my mother is not only deaf but
she is also blind and the way that I
have of talking to her is by signing on
her hand we weren't able to get
everything and we have a few questions
that we would like to ask you these
people their level that I bought a
session in I at that moment looking at
these giants and I came I felt like I
was on the ground I felt like how could
I even stand there to talk to such
people to talk to such people
that are standing burro Michelle Elam
how high they are in the world and I
answered their questions and we went
back and forth and I I cannot tell you
they asked me I should give to them
abraca when they asked me for bra then I
lost it I have to tell you the truth I
could not hold it all together I lost my
composure the only way I could gain it
back as I said I will give you a bra at
first you'll give to me a bra
they both blessed me
I made them both the girl as well I
walked out CBS TV or whoever they are

went through that experience that
