Good morning. The third ali and we see over here that Elazar is on a journey to go find a wife for and he gets to looks around. He doesn't know what to do. So he makes this deal with Hashem. He says it will be and she responds. The girl who I ask for a drink and she responds, I will give you a drink and I will also feed your 10 camels. I will give to drink your 10 camels. That's the proof that this is the proper wife for the points out that in other words he wanted to see someone who gives more than what you request from them. I asked for a drink. You give me a drink with ice. Is this what what he requested? He asked for a drink and then [clears throat] for 10 camels fulh points out the amount of water. This is a camel on the average first drink drinks 14 gallons times 10 140 gallons. 140 gallons of water. That's the ice. That seems like a very tall order or better a tall glass of water. So I once heard a shot from my father Shalita that says as follows can either be rational or irrational depending on where you come from. If you're from the land of rational, so giving someone a cold drink on a hot day seems like a nice big it's rational. Giving irrational is what Elza was used to. He was used to three guests coming three cows. What? There's enough for 20 people in one cow. No, no, no. Not where I come from. To me, the norm is, said Eleazar, if I ask for a drink, they should understand that everybody with me needs a drink. Even if they're camels, our job is to raise the bar of in our homes. We can do it and we can make everybody and our family view large acts of as regular simple everyday life. Have a wonderful day.
