Time Out to Think - R. Meir Simcha Sperling - TorahAnytime.com

so many of our decisions our preferences our outlooks on life are formed by Ms no by the society around us listening to what everyone else is saying following all the different news things and each person's amandar and each person has what to say and this star and that star and this podcast whose podcast anyone's podcast cuz anyone can make a podcast and anyone could talk and all a sudden we start believing things that make absolutely no sense but what do you mean he has a trillion followers and there's not even that many people in the world and and he's so popular and he so this and he so that so it must be real and then our Outlook in life becomes based on so many things around us and we can't think for ourselves we can't even follow the Torah what does the Torah say what does Emma say I don't have any alone times I don't know I'm just I'm constantly always looking what's this person posting what is this status what is this chat everybody has their opinions you ask a question on a status you ask a question on your chat 50 different answers from 50 different people some of them have no idea what they're talking about maybe some of them do maybe some of them don't I don't know but we're living with so much of our lives so much of our things so much of our Outlook in life is just from the society around us it has nothing to do with EMS I mean it could be but it usually doesn't that's just so we're being bombarded by so much information and a lot of it lat on us right this was Pyro's problem pyra's problem was that anytime anything serious happened three people said this about that Rabbi three people said this about that share it doesn't apply to me it doesn't apply to us it's not in our community that's that type of Judaism this is this type of Judaism maybe yes maybe no I don't know is it really that bad he said it's not that bad he does it sometimes we just need to spend time alone sometimes we have to let our phones die and we have to lose the charger B because sometimes that will help us see clearly I shouldn't say sometimes many times that will help us see clearly see clearly what's a clear perspective where am I supposed to be going what is my trajectory in life who am I supposed to be what is the purpose of life our vision won't be blurred by everybody around us because we have our own time to think it's such an important thing RAB say and today with our phones and with our technology it it's a must we have to figure out how to do this because that is the first step to making change we can't just follow anything that's written in any magazine and in any newspaper and that's my new perspective in life and oh he must be right cuz it's printed after all who cares if it was printed anything could be printed yeah but there was a picture of it who who first of all who said it's a real picture second of all so what if there's a picture of it yeah but but but this's he's a very good baseball player guy and he's he's he's very and he he I have to I want to read what he says who who who said that's not D Torah that's not the MS that's not what we're supposed to be doing that's not what we're supposed to be living we're supposed to be different our Outlook in life is supposed to be the life clear of what our purpose in life is where we're supposed to be going how could we constantly be better serving AES
