When a person realizes that each one of
their actions has
magnitude to stay here for a long time,
he has to start weighing his options.
There was a um some scientists did some
research and they wanted to evaluate how
long do certain materials in the world
last.
So for example, a plastic bottle plastic
bottle or a diaper that's thrown into
the ocean
doesn't dissolve for 450 years.
So you take a piece of bottle, piece of
plastic, you throw it into the ocean
instead of throwing it into the garbage.
or you decide that you want to throw
your your kids
diaper into the ocean. Scientists said
that it's going to take 450 years for
this thing to disappear from the world.
Now, anyone that's normal realizes a
long time.
Other things take less, some 5 years, 10
years, 20 years. Still, everything takes
a long time.
But nonetheless, if you take a piece of
plastic, every normal human being will
understand that that piece of plastic
lasting in the world for 450 years.
That's a lot of lifetimes.
It's a lot of people. It's many
generations.
You made one mistake by going on a ferry
and instead of taking the bottle of
water and throwing it in the garbage,
you threw it into the ocean because you
just don't care and you want to be
funny. And that bottle is going to be in
the ocean for 450 years.
People gonna have to look at this
bottle. It's going to do something in
the world. You're going to have an
impact for 450 years in the world
because of this one action that took you
literally a second.
You took a bottle, you threw it in the
woods. Ah, somebody else will pick it
up. And nobody picked it up for 450
years.
That's your stamp. You're in a piece of
you're in the woods
and shim after a person leaves and say,
"Oh, by the way, that bottle you threw
out and you polluted the world that
Hashem created, that's you. That's you.
That bottle and that wrapper
and that cap and that machine that
stopped working and so on and so forth.
That piece of plastic you threw in the
wall, it's 450 years. You're in the
world. 450 years. 4 You're everywhere
except it just sins everywhere. Sins
everywhere.
That's something any normal person can
understand. Why? Cuz all of us have
probably done it at some point. We threw
a bottle somewhere it doesn't belong. We
threw a wrapper where it doesn't belong.

But there's something much much worse
than a bottle. There's something much
worse than a piece of plastic because
even the plastic eventually will
dissolve. Even the plastic will
eventually leave the world after 450
years.
And that's when a person makes an action
against the
she says about her best friend.
>> Believe it.
>> Her best friend. She says about her.
What kind of best friend is this? By the
way, you should know only comes from
best friends.
Doesn't come from enemies. Your enemies
don't care enough about you to say
the best friend. Say
he says about our best friend.
breaks up a shiduk
in shim. A person goes up to sham say,
"Oh, let me show you what kind of effect
you had for eternity." That shid was
supposed to yield eight kids. Instead,
she had a different shid with three
kids. Okay, three kids are good, but
it's not eight kids. What happened? One
of those five kids that's missing was
going to be a big
He was going to help 60,000 Jews come
back to Hashem.
But now he's not in the world. Why?
Because you said one time said one time
60,000 people didn't do.
Anyone that starts thinking and delving
into their actions before they do it,
they start thinking, you know what, it's
just not worth it.
Not that I don't want to sin. It's not
worth it to sin.
Thank you for
