time they would go on vacation together.
They go to work together. They hang out
together. Best friend all the time. They
were together.
Another friend, they weren't as close.
Weren't as close, but he was with them a
bunch of time. The third wasn't really a
friend. He was like an acquaintance. He
would visit him once in a while. Once in
a while, whenever he like didn't have
anything to do, whenever the first guy
was busy, the second guy was away. All
right, I'll hang out with the third guy.
So, this is three friends that this guy
had. Now, one day this guy gets in tr
into trouble and he's scared. Why?
Because the guy got into a major major
problem. And it could be that he can go
and actually get death penalty.
He's in danger. And he calls his
friends. First guy calls his best
friend, the one he's hanging out with
every single day for years. It's like,
"Hey buddy, listen. I have this big
case. I got a trial. I don't know what's
going to happen. I don't know if they're
going to convict me. I don't know if
they're going to I I didn't do it. I
promise. But I need some support, some
moral support.
What does his friend say? This best
friend, this BFF that he spent all these
years with. I'm sorry, buddy. I can't
go. I'm busy.
I can't go. No, but come on. You're my
friend. You're my boy for years. We've
been together. We're like this. Come
with me to the case. I'm not asking you
to fight for me. I'm not asking you to
give me money. I'm just asking you to
just be there for moral support. Sitting
in the court. I'm sorry, buddy. I'm
busy. I can't go. What a let down. This
is worse than the case. This is worse
than being convicted guilty. So, what
does he do? Men, he calls the second
guy. The second guy that you know he
hung out with once in a while. He says,
"Listen, my friend didn't come through.
Can you help me out? Can you give me
some moral support? Can you come with me
to to my big case? They may convict me.
I may be guilty. I may not even believe.
It's a problem." What did the second guy
say? Second guy says, "Listen, I can
come with you, but all the way to the
courtroom. Once you get to the
courtroom, I I'm leaving. I'm not going
inside. I'll give you a ride to the
airport. I'll give you a ride to the
airport, but I'm not going inside. Not
flying with you. I'll take it. What are
you going to do? I'll take it. But I
still need somebody to give me some like
kizuk when I'm in the court. I'm crying
something. So what does he do? He calls
the guy he hasn't talked to in months.
The guy that he was an acquaintance
with. Once in a while we'd visit him.
Hey, listen. I'm in trouble. Hey, we're
in trouble. Where are you? I'll be
there. No, no, I got a case. No problem.
I'll be there. Tell me where it is. I'm
there. I'll be with you throughout the
whole case. I'll even vouch for you.
I'll write a letter for you. All of a
sudden, this acquaintance that he even
know he was friends with is writing
letters for him. He's vouching for him.
He's fighting for him. Your honor, he's
a sadik. He didn't do it. Well, you know
what he did? No, but I know he didn't do
it. He's a sadik. This guy got the
surprise of his life. Best friend didn't
show up. Qu the middle guy gave him a
ride. The guy he was like friendly with
is like writing letters on his behalf.
Surprise.
What's the biggest surprise? The biggest
surprise is the story is about us. This
entire story is about us. How is it
about us? A guy invests all of his time
with his best friend. What's his best
friend? Money. His job. Every day chases
money. He goes to the muffler store to
sell mufflers. He goes to the diamond
store to sell diamonds. And he spends
overtime to save for a vacation he's
never going to take. And he spends extra
time to build a company he doesn't need.
and he spends extra time to build
another house that he doesn't even want
and he's there overtime and overtime and
overtime and over time he spends all of
his time there. That's the best friend.
But on judgment day when a person goes
to shim, Hashem says, "I'm sorry. You
can't bring your money with you. It
can't come." What do you have? A
million, 5 million, 10 million, 20, 30,
50, 100 million. It all stays behind.
You can't bring it with you. All of it
stays behind. That extra big house that
you just built an extension for stays
behind. The big bank accountant with the
401k next to it stays behind. That's the
best friend YOU SPENT ALL YOUR LIFE
WITH, RIGHT? Stays behind. It can't come
to court with you. Who's the second guy?
Second guy gave you a ride. That's the
family. Family spent a little time with
them. An hour here, an hour there. Like
you're doing them a favor. No. What do
you mean? I was home for 8 hours last
night. Yeah, but you slept 7 and 1/2.
You ate dinner. You went to sleep 7 and
1/2 hours. You you count that as being
home, but they're going to give you a
right to where? To the funeral. Someone
dies. They're about to meet their maker.
What happens before the body goes to the
funeral? They're going to give you a
right to the funeral. It's the least
they can do. It's the most they can do.
They can't come with you to shine. They
can't come with you to shine. But who's
your best friend? Who's the guy that's
vouching FOR YOU? WHO'S THE GUY THAT
came through and you didn't even spend
any time with him at all? Once in a
while you did him a favor. That's Torah.
That's mitzvot. Once in a while you did
a mitzvah by accident. You created an
angel. Once in a while you late feline
on time, you know, before 3:00 in the
afternoon, you know, like on time in the
morning when the rest of religious
people do it in the morning. Once in a
while you do it right. You get an angel.
You get a mash, right? An angel. What is
he doing in Shm? OH, YOU'RE IN TROUBLE.
I'm writing A LETTER FOR YOU. WHAT? What
happened? He's sadik. He is sadik. What
do you mean sadik? Look what this guy.
No, no, he is sadik. He's sadik. He's
vouching for you. That's what this is.
Is saying that one that you don't spend
any time with.
That's who's going to vouch for you.
Your money, your family, your friends,
your everything else can't do nothing
for you. Can't do nothing for you.
Nothing. I heard the story five, six
years ago. It hit the spot back then,
but today it hit more. You know, you
repeat. It's one of the things you're
supposed to do. Learn Tawra. You repeat.
You go over things.
And every single time you go over Torah,
the second time is better. The third
time is better. And it keeps getting
better. That's the beauty of
more. 1 2 3.
