Words of Inspiration by Rabbi Nachum Scheiner at the Jacksonville Kollel Siyum

a little under a year ago millions of Americans were traveling anybody remembers what that was little little less than a year ago something happened in Hawaii a volcano it could be that also I just don't remember millions of people eres there was something very fascinating there was an eclipse but not just an eclipse this is going to be an eclipse also that the sun is going to be covered a little bit but last year the was in a big part of America the Sun for about a couple of minutes was covered completely the path of totality millions of Americans were traveling to go see it and myself included my kids wanted to go blame it on my kids I was happy to go I took my kids I told my wife for leaving it was it was 3:30 now afternoon I told my wife I'm going to get up 4:00 a.m. I want to di on shakas you know go 4 hours North I want to beat the traffic so my wife said you're going to travel four hours go to the night before so it became a whole road trip with my kids I'm forever grateful I did it even though the way back took me nine hours instead of four hours it was still worth it anyways traveling to watch it it was just an amazing we got there at night and then we went to a different location in Vermont another hour away to watch how the son was covered 100% covered and it became dark 3:30 in the afternoon it became dark I remember we were there a lot of people were there watching and telescopes and just the amazement The Unbelievable Mara the the sight to see was unbelievable unbelievable it's hard to explain it with camera with video with pictures it was just something unbelievable I remember the next morning as I got back at 1:2 in the morning the next morning saying we say we said this morning hasem creates light and darkness I was able to like touch the words to understand you know to really to really um it had a meaning the truth is that these the ramban says that throughout throughout out these pares now maras could you imagine each Maka for itself was something unbelievable to see if you would hear that there's a country that's full of frogs it's the most amazing thing 10 marus the the ofam in the midbar what happened all the N that happened unbelievable unbelievable says the ran that these meim are supposed to be a stepping stool to everything that happens around us like with the eclipse that I traveled that's supposed to really be a stepping stone to everything around us that the sun comes up every morning that's also an amazing thing anything Nest a nest that happens is supposed to tell us that even something that's not a nest something that's the ordinary is also from Hashem but the way he calls it is also you say thank you meaning to say is even something that's normal is also a Ness now how do you relate to such a thing how do you relate the sun comes up isn't that that's natural that's the te that the sun comes up what's the Ness about it to illustrate this concept how everything is a Ness I want to share with you Aller lived a little over 200 years ago and put out on all of he was the he he was everybody was the god times and brings out a point I never even thought of it it's so interesting when we went out of one of the N that we had for 40 years was that the man fell for 40 years for 40 years the M fell it could be after a few years it became normal but I want to tell you something more the kids that were born in the midbar they thought that was normal it was normal for them that that's how the food comes about and you know what was not normal when they came into AR and the month stopped falling and food was growing from a tree that's the most unique interesting idea says theer we look out for us it's normal it rains it's windy it snows but then you have somebody that never he lives in y he never sees snow he came to to New York for a wedding and then there's a snowstorm of a half a foot it's the most amazing interesting thing to see says you could see you could thank hasem for the all of us have different moments in our life that there is something special that happens to us something beautiful something unique and that's supposed to be a stepping stool to tell us to teach us to help us for anything that goes on even your regular dayto day person's healthy he should be grateful there's so much to be grateful for even just uh I'm thinking right now to be grateful Rabbi cats the program director puts together such a beautiful trip so much inspiration going to this place going to the shna center just nonstop inspiration all these things some things could seem pretty normal but to look at what we could be grateful for what we could be grateful for the BR to all of us including myself is that we should live a life to be able to not just focus on the positive but like what the ra says the different n that the gave us throughout the generations those n we should be able to tap in also things that happen regularly Kan already we're almost already into the loop of P but one of the most famous to on the question why these eight days of kanah they should be seven days because one day we anyways had the oil the famous territ is that tea is also a nest tea is also a ask this that the oil burns is also a nest if we could utilize looking around such a beautiful world Miller you see they put out the papers does it make it to you the papers it says on the paper we get it that I haven't seen maybe they meant by email somebody gets an email but if he took the time R de Miller took the time to appreciate ear to appreciate a red apple we could look around and we could appreciate there so much teaches us to appreciate to appreciate to appreciate our appearance to to appreciate the to appreciate we should utilize and should help us we should take able to use this lesson throughout our life thank you very much for coming welcome to famous story with water beautiful beautiful to bring out we live the it's normal we're breathing NE If somebody walks into the hospital you see you know someone's hooked up to oxygen you know you see it's not so simple it's it's we could be appreciate breathing healthy a person could walk person could talk yeah very good very good beautiful example we go to the bathroom multiple times of course we say the BR we say the blessing but if a person stops for a minute to to understand to appreciate people have babies My grandmother used to say what he was a doctor that said a doctor that delivered many many babies and he said he never ever forgets that it's an absolute Miracle every time a baby is born so every single time a person could appreciate everything that goes on that's uh
