It’s About Appreciating - R. Yaakov Rahimi - TorahAnytime.com

I want to share with you an unbelievable midrash midash when no in he unfortunately two brothers fought before they killed each other. What did they fight about? What was the what exactly did they fight about? The midash brings down an unbelievable thing was supposed to get all the ka all the lands of the world. He was supposed to get all the metatalin metatalin is things that are movable objects of the world. So let's say there was horses. Let's say there was donkeys. Let's say there were wagons. All these things Hevil was supposed to learn uh to to own. But ka land actual property k was supposed to own says the midash k and he and their levels obviously they were very holy people. K and he got into an argument that I want some I want some movable objects under my ownership too. And he started fighting with k that I also want some land. And because of that fight that led to fiction or virtually unfortunately it caused one of the greatest tragedies ever happened in the Torah for history that the two brothers got into fight and then one of them had to get killed. But the midash says an unbelievable thing. How is it possible that kind and he are fighting over something that they have so much of? The whole world was in front of them. They own the whole world. All the land, all the metal and all the movable objects and you're still fighting. You have so much wealth both of you two brothers and you're still fighting over more and more. From here we learn something tremendous says from here we learn it's not about how much wealth a person has. It's not about how much products you own. It's about how you appreciate and how you treat all the wealth and products you already own. It's not about conquering more land. It's about appreciating how much you already have that will give you happiness. Conquering more, having a lot not necessarily will make you happy because you see kind in Hevil had everything. They had the whole world to themselves and they still fought for more. Because what brings you is when a person recognizes the good that Hashem already gave
