The Importance of Knowing Hashem - R. Zecharia Wallerstein - TorahAnytime.com

listen to the story so a lady came to my house and exactly there she sat down she said her wallet i have to ask you something i'm like okay sure she says my daughter will make up the name my daughter rocco was a really good girl she had a best friend miriam and rocco and miriam were in in high school together and they were from sneers they didn't talk to boys they're both very good girls they did well in school she said they're out of school right now seven years my daughter is going out with a non-jewish guy doesn't keep kosher doesn't keep shabbos doesn't do anything her friend who was mamish there were like buddies she's in a thrill married to a credible guy she has two kids brother wallistein how did that happen how does that happen two friends graduated together in the same place both from my daughter's with a guy doesn't keep anything and her best friend is married to a kyle guy in israel he what does that show want from me what's her question okay and i thought about russ and arpa two girls same place and today and and and and a few years later one's the great grandmother of david melvin the other one's the the the mother of a of a giant plishti how does that happen i got the perfect story for you to explain it so there was a king and always in the mattress kings had beautiful daughters the message never said a king had an ugly daughter there's no such thing because in the marriages the king is our shaman we're the daughter we're beautiful so anyway there's a king around who had this daughter and he wanted to get a up for her but there were thousands of guys that wanted to marry her she was beautiful and she was rich and whoever marries her becomes the prince of one day the king so the king didn't know what to do who who who whose resume should he take he said you know what we're gonna make a contest and he builds a tower a thousand steps high and each step is not a little step crazy wide and he tells he makes an announcement to the country whoever wants to marry my daughter who's single two days as the sun sets there's going to be a race up my new tower and wherever by sunrise the next morning gets to the top gets to princess but if you don't make it to the top you get nothing it's not like who wins the race who gets to the top first but if you don't get to the top you don't get nothing okay everyone's excited i'm gonna get the princess and right comes sun setting thousand guys are running are gonna run up the steps everybody wants the princess sun sets and the race begins but there are a lot of guys that were totally very overweight and extremely out of shape and they only could make 100 steps and they couldn't breathe anymore but they're guys they don't want to say like i'm fat and i can't breathe and i'm out of shape and i can't do this so they had to make up a story so they started a story that ah there's no princess there's no princess in the top of the tower nobody can make it up there it's a trick and the king in the morning is going to sit with all his friends at the bottom of the steps and laugh their brains off at all the idiots that are running up the steps we can't make it it's just a joke there's no princess he's not getting to a princess because a guy can go up the steps he wants someone educated handsome this doesn't make any sense i'm telling you the whole thing's made up because they didn't want to say that they can't breathe and this is going on the whole night as as guys were out of shape and they couldn't breathe they're making up the story and the whole rumor was going and everyone's like you know what it's true we're only up to the 400 step and there's only a few hours left it is impossible it's impossible so it's true the king is gonna it's just a joke so let's get out of here because we don't want to be the fools and everybody starts running down everybody's running down the steps except for the two guys that are in the best shape and they're on the 700th step and there's only one hour left and there's no way you could do 300 steps in an hour because the whole night took them to get it to the 700th step so turns to maishi the two of them with only two left and he says maishi let's not be suckers this whole thing is a joke because we didn't stop running and we're only at the seven on step and he said if you don't get to the top you don't get the princess anyway so he knew it was impossible there's nobody faster than us i think they're right i think and the sun's gonna come up and the king and his friends are gonna be laughing at the two guys the two idiots that thought they could make it so let's get out of here we can run down in an hour we can run down in an hour and go we'll teach the king a lesson we're all his friends we're gonna be looking at steps that are empty one way she says nope i'm not running down. says what are you talking about i'm telling you the whole thing's a joke like she says i'm going to keep going so what are you going to keep going you're not even going to make it to the 800th step he says i have to tell you something i worked for the king for five years in the castle there's two things you need to know about this king one he has no sense of humor he doesn't make jokes this is definitely not a joke he don't laugh and he don't make jokes so this is not a joke yeah but we can't make it we can't make it he says the second thing about the king he never lies ever ever in five years one thing we all know if he says something it's true so i don't understand what's going on here there's something we don't know but it's not a joke and it's not a lie time says might she you wanna be the only guy left here i'm gonna be on the bottom laughing at you too and he turns around and he runs as fast as he can down the steps and like she's standing there by himself and he's looking up at the top of the tower and he's like i know the king king don't make jokes king word is aware but but i can't get up there in an hour you know what maybe because i'm the only guy left the king will break his rule and let me marry her because i got the highest maybe so i'm going to keep going i'm going to use that hour that i have left and i'm going to keep going wherever i get do i get to but at least i did my best and he takes the story changed my life and he takes the next step on the 70th first step and there's a trigger it's a movable step and it triggers and all of a sudden the steps in front of him open up and an elevator comes out and meanwhile he turns and his friend is chugging down kind of chugging down the steps because he doesn't want to be up there and he screams to him oh my gosh him elevator time's running down he hears oh my god my friend mike she fell off the steps he's chugging chugging he gets it to the elevator there's a rose bottle champagne two glasses two candles and a button that says p on it letter p and he says oh that's cool penthouse princess i'm not sure and he pushes it and the doors close elevator goes underneath the steps and there's a track like an express train this thing is zooming comes up to the top the doors open as the sun is beginning to rise he steps out of the elevator and girls as he steps out of the elevator to the top floor his friend steps off the last step on the bottom two guys in the same place in the same moment and now an hour later one is at the top and one is not even on the bottom he's totally off the steps and he opens the door and standing there is the most beautiful woman he ever in his life dreamt of and she says thank you so much for making it and he looks at her and says i'm a farm i'm a peasant you're the princess no thank you she goes no you don't understand my father said that if no one makes it i will be stuck up here for the rest of my life by myself and i saw the two of you on the 700 step and i knew the elevator was intended but i wasn't allowed to interfere and i saw the two of you talking i'm like stop just one more step i was thinking she couldn't yell she wasn't allowed to do that but she was like i was praying take one more step and then your friend turned around and he started running down i'm like whoever that guy is on the seventh step please don't turn around cause if you turn around i'm stuck here for the rest of my life and you took the next step thank you so much and by the way there's something my father didn't tell anyone because he thought maybe more than one guy would make it i want to introduce you to someone up here that's with me he says who's here with you she says i have a twin sister that was for the second guy and he runs to the door and he screams all the way down a thousand step try him twin sister and kind of hears oh my god he fell again crime is nothing and why she has everything so i told this story to the parent of this girl that's off the darach and i said tell me you tell me i don't want to tell you you tell me what's the difference between hayam and maishi why did one guy give up and one guy keep going there's only one difference girls anyone know the difference come on swat girls what's the difference between the two [Music] what'd you say hey what he gave up on himself oh come on everybody who's watching ontario i know the answer what's the difference between the two what you got it must be my niece one knew the king one didn't one knew the king's not a joker and not a liar the other one had no idea no relationship with the king so i said to this lady i said it might have looked like that the two of them were in school basiaco graduated [Music] the other girl knew the king your daughter did not that's the difference you can go through school the whole time do your subjects get 100 be valedictorian you have no relationship with hashem you're a subject matter person if you know the king the king is not a joker hashem is not a joker he doesn't have a sense of humor and his word is the word so if the king tells you you can do it you can do it you
