sometimes we can see the big picture and
sometimes we don't see the big picture
sometimes the big picture is not even
for this world sometimes the big picture
is for the next world sometimes we
suffer
and we don't even see why we suffered
and only later in the next world after
120 we realized
that it was for our benefit for our soul
not even for our body
i want to share with you something so
amazing no it's not even
it's fat it's crazy it's unbelievable
you just whatever stick with
it's really really amazing it's
something from robert mathis yahoo
solomon he goes and he asks like this he
says
some when you look at the torah the
amount of
ink that the torah puts on a certain
story or certain
uh you know lesson the
the more ink the more that we can learn
from it meaning that the more the torah
expands about it the more lessons
more more vital lesson it holds for us
so we look at it
in general you look at the five books of
moses what is the majority of the
ink that is used in the five books of
moses it's used on mashallah banu you go
through the
atmosphere exodus you go to the house a
night giving of the torah you give to
the 40 years of the desert
you know covers roughly four out of the
five books let's go to the first book to
the book of genesis
you know it begins with the creation of
the world it goes through the flood and
then it goes through the about the
patriarchs and the matriarchs
and those size are not so much they're
they're they're given space but not a
lot what's given one of the most spaces
in the seth albert
the story of yosef the story of joseph
and you think about it why is it
covering so much
says solomon because of this experience
that
that joseph went through is an
experience throughout the that the
jewish people could learn throughout the
entire history
and furthermore when the avot went and
they
went through the you know their lives
they were individuals
but when yaakov had the 12 tribes all of
a sudden that became a group that became
a small nation
that there was a nucleus literally of
the nation so there's a lot more to
learn over here
and he's listen to how it goes it
explains it and i just want to you know
for people that have been listening to
to our classes for quite some time
we've spoken to yosef edit you know
extensively in different
in different scenarios and every time we
try to learn something else so listen
how fascinating and listen how many
lessons you can learn from yourself
page 54 on the top the goes and says
a person is required to bless god
on the bad just like kashem just like he
blesses him for the good
now the mishnah does not say that we
bless
bless god for the good and we should
also bless god for the bad as well
no no it says just just like hashem just
like being just this this worksheet
means equally
just like you bless god for the good
equally you bless god
for the dead now when the mishnah is
telling us this it's not telling us for
the high high people
for the high level it's talking to every
single jew
every single person that it's a
reachable level
now when we think about this logically
how are you going to go
and bless on the bad so when you go and
you contemplate on you know on things
and especially in life and especially in
people's situation we often see
that sometimes the good doesn't seem to
turn out so good like sometimes someone
goes into a business and it looks like
it goes really well
sometimes a person marries into a really
well family and everything is really
well off from all angles and then what
happens
this thing falls apart this thing falls
apart and before you know it the whole
thing comes crashing down
so really that good that started off
good didn't really end up
so much as good and you have you know
vice versa as well you have the opposite
where you have somebody that marries
maybe not to the best and
gets into you know financial situations
that's very very difficult
and then what happens this and that
happens and then all of a sudden the
situation turns around and it goes all
the way
and he skyrockets to success so knowing
that
when we think about that for a second
that the good can sometimes turn to the
bad and the bad can sometimes turn to
the good
then how come when something good
happens do we say well who knows what's
going to be well some people do say that
i'm not talking about pessimism and
optimism but you have you know when you
think about it when something good
happens you'll be like well is it going
to last when something bad happens do we
say
watch how this is going to turn out for
the good why don't we do that and and
that says this is something that we need
to crystallize
this this type of logic into our mind
you
