Okay. The definition of true love is
like you said, you like you love ice
cream, you love shoes. What what's in
the relationship? When you love ice
cream, it just a minute of pleasure. And
what does it do? The real love is that
there's some type of a interaction
interaction. There's
a maybe my English is not that good, but
there's a common goal. not come and go,
but there's a give and a take. That's a
real true love. An ice cream gives you
one minute of good taste in your mouth.
The question is, what do you love here?
The ice cream or do you love the fact
that it tastes real good and it makes
you feel
good? True love is that when you love
something for what it is, but that thing
is also giving back. So it can be with a
husband, can be with a kid and so much
more so can be with God because God is a
give and take relationship. So the real
love is that when whatever you love is
not just giving you a temporary solution
to something or something physical
anything that is physical, it's not you
don't like the physical thing. You like
what the physical thing gives you. So if
it's a movie makes you excited, you like
the excitement, not the movie. The ice
cream gives you good taste in your
mouth. A good I don't know basketball
play whatever it you love what it gives
you. So this is a uh yeah this is a more
superficial love. But the true love
can but the true love is that what do
you give to what you love and what that
what do you gain back? There has to be
some type of a giving and taking. So how
how can I love hashem more? How can you
love him more? By meditating how much he
loves you and how great he is and all
the good thing that he does to you. Most
people they don't see how great and good
Hashem is to them and they don't realize
how much Hashem does for them. And when
you meditate how much Hashem does for
you, how good he is to you and every
little thing that happens is good. Even
though it seems maybe bad, it's still
good. I'll just I'll give you an
example.
Yeah, but more than that, I'll give you
an example. I have a
student that a year ago, she met, she's
single, she met a guy from Los Angeles
and they started a relationship and
because of him, it dragged her to Los
Angeles cuz she wanted she thought maybe
that's the one. At some point, they it
didn't work out and for months she was
heartbroken. And I told her, "No, this
this man drew you to Los Angeles for a
reason." And sure enough down the line,
she met her real husband. So I told her,
looking back, the first one seemed like
such a bad thing and you had to relocate
and break your heart and this and but he
actually drew brought you here. So
everything essentially is good. You
might look at it and interpret it bad,
but everything is good. Now when you
meditate on that, you see every little
thing that Hashem does for you is beyond
good. Just that we most people are
blinded and we're like, you know, we
have a close friend now that is
struggling with a disease and my wife
today told me she's upset at
Hashem. Why are you upset at Hashem? You
know, everything is good. So when you
really meditate how good Hashem is, you
learn to love him more. And the more you
meditate, the more you love him. The
more you understand the essence of
Hashem. That's why you know you have to
learn and the what the the the the topic
to learn is not his necessarily his
rules. Rather you learn more spiritual
the mysticism of of the Bible and the
Torah Zora whatever you can learn
because that's when you really learn the
essence. What is Hashem? Hashem is not
some tyrant in Shamayim with a sword
waiting to to give you rules and to make
your life hard. So the more you get
closer to Hashem, the more you will
receive. That's how I felt with the
light. The more I was in, the more I was
able to receive this information.
