[Music]
this mu game that Sal told story many
people have heard it was a Jew was an
unemployed actor couldn't find the
Confederate jobs and actors which is the
standard state of most actors of the
world and one day he saw an
advertisement there was a zoo the zoo
had a monkey the monkey was the main
attraction at the zoo people would pay a
lot of money to come in and see the
monkey in the monkey would perform and
the zoo was making a lot of money and
then one day monkey died and the suit
didn't want anybody know about it
because that the the paying customers
would start to decrease so they put an
ad in the paper they're looking for
somebody to pay to play the part of a
monkey so this guy got jobs a job they
went down the audition and they saw that
the guy you know he's cocky he's a
natural monkey put down the monkey gonna
for me put out the outfit swinging
around the other truck he's the guy was
good he gets in the cage and he's he's
the monkey and paying customers come in
to the zoo and throwing peanuts and all
the things that monkeys do and
everybody's having a good time and then
this guy his confidence started
increasing the crowds were getting
bigger and as his confidence increased
he started swinging around you learn to
use his tail it was really good and then
one day he and I swinging around the
cage and he's really put down the show
and not knowing his own strength he went
up over the top of the cage and he
landed in the next cage which was the
lion's cage landed about ten feet away
from the lion
so looks at the lion and you know what
is it you do when did you realize his
last few moments of hurt on earth and he
just looks at the lion he just goes
Shania Easter
similar cana michelle michaud the lion
looks at the gozaburo shaky focus
this is Moises that you see yes like me
what are you doing here that couldn't
find a job young me either so that
conditions are bad just a little hot in
this outfit buzzing the zebra from the
next cage yells realistic both you guys
keep it down we're all gonna lose our
jobs here this mu game told that story
years ago as a description obviously
there are different spins on that story
of the theme and great mental element he
mentioned this story in terms of a
person who identifies himself by his
external garb he doesn't really never
got in touch with who he is on the
inside
whatever his job is or whatever he does
that's how a person sees himself and we
live in a world where obviously people
it's a world of such emptiness where
people unless they have a job to go to
the next day they what are we gonna do
with their spare time when a person is
alone that tells you what the person
what you do with your optional time is
really an indication of who you are and
we live in a world of confusion in a
world where people have very little
direction I mean really after 2,000
years of technological development the
best the world could do is come up with
a spinner you know this world is in
trouble and people are running around
with with absolutely clueless what
they're supposed to be doing where it's
supposed to be going and everybody knows
that in World War two at the end of the
war they're different Rob Bottin would
subscribe to I heard it was her Blazers
silver others say it was reverse I not
sure who it was was a chaplain the
United States Army with laser silver and
he went to Europe after the war and he
went to try to identify Jewish war
orphans and so what he would do is he
would walk into churches in the middle
of the service that it would be
accompanied by a couple of burly
American marines and right in the middle
of the
church service he would just walk right
up to the front and it would face the
audience and he would say out loud
Shema he's relish ever locater I shall
fund he would look around and any of the
kids who instinctively put their hands
over their eyes he would identify those
of those are the Jews because those are
the children who from the earliest age
had heard that from their parents from
one years old two years old that was his
way of identifying who the Jewish war
orphans were so unfortunately nowadays
we have Jewish orphans a world full of
Jewish orphans
these are Jewish orphans or have been
working from traditional Yiddish guide
and obviously anybody who wants to get
involved in the Moluccas a kodesh of
cure over fo Keon understands that we
have a job our job is to try to identify
and reach out and bring these spiritual
orphans back the problem we always run
into is how to do it how do you motivate
them now motivation is a very very
tricky motivations are very tricky
different types of motivation in life
when I was 19 years old my father
araignee cabarrus we Chicago he took me
out to a parking lot to teach me how to
drive a stick shift
we had a car hold ships kohli it was a
Ford Pinto it's a little small car he
had one problem once in a while you hid
it in the back that would blow up but
all the Jews had him because they were
cheap and he took me out to learn how to
drive the stick shift and after about 20
minutes I couldn't get that I couldn't
get the hangar with the car kept dying
so I was very frustrated I said you know
dad forget about it I'll just drive the
automatic he said oh no keep trying
try it again for another 10 minutes
still couldn't get the angry I was very
frustrated that they had forget about it
he said look they're millions of people
in real God drive a stick-shift you
could learn how to drive a stick shift
so I tried a little bit more and again I
couldn't get it I just sit there I was
very frustrated my father was a very
wise man you let me sit there for about
two minutes silent didn't say a word
after two minutes he says to me you know
mom knows
drive it within 30 seconds I was the
best stick shift driver in the city I
think the wheelies backwards for it
ain't spins anything you want because
there was simply no way that my mother
was going to drive a car and I would be
able to drive it so when you find the
right motivation it's amazing what you
can get people to do our job and it's a
difficult job is how do we motivate
people to Ezra Childress you ever
mentioned earlier not only to become
Froome but to take it a step up to
become Benito wrote um tell me difficult
for men to devote their life not only to
religious observance but to some sort of
connection to Torah learning the more
the better
so first of all we have to know that s
been a Torah which we are the impression
that we make the impression that we make
is often going to be the motivator the
makeit or break-it for the people who
are not yet connected to the Irish guy
as a kumara Exodus enough full of war
says rob una when he gave me with when
the rabona got up from the yeshiva of
Roth wound above law when they got up
there was so much dust from his yeshiva
have a pie she tell me Mira Bona in Roth
Hoonah when he would dharshan he had 13
play ser amory in those days they didn't
have loudspeakers and have microphones
so the rugs would give the truck up and
he had people who would stand there and
they would kind of guess with some sort
of foghorn or something they would then
repeat what he said to the crowd they
were human loudspeakers Ravana had such
a crowd of Tomita
that he had 13 people who would then
broadcast it out to the entire crowd of
Tommy who were there and when they got
up from his Shearer the Gibara says
the Nazi gleam I knew they would shake
out their garments of the Solek Africa
the castle of the Ummah the dust from
their garments would go up it would
block out it would darken the Sun that
was shining then redo my rub it in Eretz
Israel they would say come believe me
Missy stood there I would above law a
narrative show they'd say yeah well what
a shear is over how do you know got a
little dimming today I can imagine that
if we were here right now and it got a
little dark outside we'd say yeah I
guess here's over in Lakewood right they
all got up in Lakewood and they all
shook out their garments or the dust
went up but it blocked out the Sun of
this one can see that's what the course
is where it says it above all there it's
the straw would get dark and they'd say
yeah the commissioner punished here for
his 800 Toby demand in Bubba
so the my Russ says what's going on here
what does Gabbar mean says the mare show
that the person's me toes are called as
garments behold a sea of Gaddafi
livonian you're begun diem are you me
toes you're regarded as your character
in a row who knows you Shiva with a
finished learning Torah they went into
the base register Saint learned then
they didn't go and get involved with
their pernessa on those few hours that
they had Ella they went and started
working on their me toes which is
symbolized by the regarded shaking out
the begun the dust of their begun and
says the Marcia is an illusion of some
sort to their meetups
and the meatus of the tam beatab of
ravana
blacked out the Sun the Sun we find
symbolically in thes Allah many places
the Sun always represents a sub the oh
they called it the core of the other
nations and when they would shake out
their garments symbolically their me
toes the work they did on their me toes
developing their character bringing it
to perfection that was a protection for
klystron against the whatever the a
savonia enforces work so we know that as
been a Torah
if we're gonna affect people one of the
things that effects and we've heard it
over and over throughout the years
people are watching us we have a
tremendous responsibility when I was
learning in Colonel de rocha cohort if I
check of its keys at home relieve Rafa
he told us when we get on a bus here in
Israel if anybody and the bus is
standing we should get up and give them
our say we shouldn't sit not somebody
who's elderly who anybody would give the
seat to anyone out of the bus is
standing we shouldn't be seen sitting
because a secular person will look
around on that bus and they'll see ah
there's the Fermi why is he sitting and
I'm standing it's irrational it's
unreasonable but it's true and we have
to make the best impression that we
possibly can because the impression that
we make is often going to be a life
decision that's being made by the person
who's watching us the they had a the
machiya famous Messi F of the gate said
you shiver Amisha Schwab's itself the
peshwa have said that one point it was
their crossroads was he going to go in
follow eight become a bender and go to
yeshiva or was he going to pursue a
career by going to university so he
decided to see what a yeshiva life is
like say went to the is Shiva he's in
the yeshiva
it was in the lunchroom checking out
what is you should have a like fight and
somebody poured him a cup of coffee and
he was walking with this cup of coffee
and as he was walking with the coffee he
stumbled slipped coffee spilled and one
of the buckram sitting in the in the
kitchen and the in the lunchroom so this
bar immediately jumped his feet and he
yelled down quickly somebody another cup
of coffee from Asia he said he made his
decision to be stadia Shiva based on
that my son that one incident then he
you know you're waiting for the end of
the story and then the guy sued
no no no he made his decision he said I
wanna tell you I told this story twice
did he happened to be when I mentioned
the story a grandson and one point a
grandson over at my Schwab came through
he said yeah that was my Zetas stories
true and there was another place where
as a granddaughter came over he said yes
the story shows about her sake
so the impression that's made by the
Ventura is absolutely vital
there was another rose Oberstein brings
down a one of his farm there was a young
man in Bnei Brak he had some relatives
who were completely secular as the
expression goes there were fright as an
egg and he was trying as hard as he can
to to you know influence them and they
have discussions and they're talking
this that and the other and what time he
invited the secular relatives over for a
shop is the Bnei Brak i assume it wasn't
july but but december is much better
than today brach but he invited these
secular relatives over they spent an
entire shop is talking about everything
talk about the Froome install throwing
stones and we come from guerrillas we
don't cover girls everything all thing
nothing not a movie nothing no no no no
crack in the and no in the armour
boats a Shabbos he was walking them to
the bus and his walking into the bus
stop they heard a noise it's 10:30 at
night they heard a noise he said to
what's it what's that noise he says well
it's a group of people got together
there in one of the shoals says what are
they doing there it says they're saying
to Helen why are they saying till Allah
said because there's a young man
unfortunately this town was not well and
there's a special prayer session for so
these people got together they're gonna
say fill them they're you know they
could tell by the sound it was it was it
was the dozens if there are hundreds of
people they said you mean all those
people know him he goes no I'm assuming
they're most of the people there
probably don't know him but there was a
sign put up come say Tehillim for
Polonia been clawdy and the people came
to to say to him he said these people
are willing to come out at 10:30 on a
Saturday night and say till were some
they don't know that was the straw that
broke the
the couple changed and eventually came
from so these are bonito who will never
know that they're saying to Hill and
people always ask I said to Hill him but
it didn't help huh we don't know how it
helps we don't know what the effect of
that Ilham is gonna be there's a very
very direct effect and therefore a
person understands that that behavior is
key it's crucial when it comes to the
effect when you have on people Taurus
says impartial vehicle well sure banal
gathers the people together vehicle
Moshe is calling us with a straw and he
gives them the command regarding the
Mischka comes along tells of what they
have to bring and then the tourist says
vietze of color that's been a so beliefs
they Moshe the people all leave from the
presence of most Robina so Bollywood sir
asked what second
it says Morocco Moshe is called a
spinning so we know where two people
were they were all standing in the
presence of Moshe Rabbeinu
why does the turret then go and repeat
again if I hate to call it that's what
they show belief their motion should
save a it's upon us today so why is it
me least they the answer is any
of you who've been never been sofa for
example see rip ciyon can you have ski
ashleeta
you go in and you get a Bravo how do you
feel when you leave how do you walk away
imagine you've gone in you got into a
giant you managed to get in most people
walk away could see written all over
them why God walks like we once took a
group of guys here for worse a man guys
completely not connected we took him to
Bnei Brak going took the whole group in
to go to hit her a client came out give
a profit to the whole group we came out
I said to one of the guys so what did
you think the guy looks at me wide-eyed
he goes I mean he was exude including
something and that's something that we
all feel y'all going well
I mean you know you walk out whoa whoa
and we just we just you know walk out
what's wrong
no nothing on it's very high but you
walk out you're on what we eat personal
leads most Rubino
you could take a look at them you see
where they came from somebody comes
walking out of the base Spanish a
ben-tor could walking out a base whether
she gets out where we a person walks
somebody's you could tell man's walking
down the street he obviously just came
out of a terror that's clear because he
walked he wobbled this way wobbled that
way and for no good reason fell flat on
his face there is definitely somebody
came I've never seen anybody come out of
the base meddra shin fall for no good
reason a person out of the tavern you
never seen the opposite person comes out
of a ballgame with his buddies they went
to a ball game that came out of a
gymnasium they've got a certain look
they've got a certain feel certain sound
about them the person who comes out of
the way submitted should have a certain
look in a certain field
I've been Torres behavior he has to show
that he's a Ventura and a Ventura has to
realize that people are watching him
they're watching his behavior and
they're being very much affected by it
they had another in a pool here in
Arizona in a place called Craigh
Hassidim up north it one day the cashier
at the pool became from st. but that's
it sister for the yarmulke starts
increase run so they asked what happened
how did something obviously happen the
guy running a pool in Israel decides we
come from he said one day he was late
getting to the pool
he had the abandoned who's supposed it
happens in Israel anybody who's never
been here you know you go to a store so
they just see a sign of the sources I'll
be back in 20 minutes the stores open
cash registers right there you know just
walk right in a very informal country
and he was there he had abandoned his
post and the pool is open he got to the
sea got the back to the pool and there
were a group of you Shiva guys when he's
shoving Farkas seated we're waiting
there
what are you doing here that we want to
pay you they were the only ones who were
waiting to pay they were the only ones
who are waiting to pay everybody else
snuck in you got a deployed away
collecting he said if that's been a
Torah that's been a Torah that's what I
have to be there countless examples of
to throw you one more
a train conductor here in Israel also
started becoming observant start
becoming from what happened he said I
got off what happened you said one day I
stopped the train got to the final stop
one man black hat beard I saw him get
off the train he walked all the way up
to the front where I'm sitting is the
conductor he said thank you for the ride
in all my years as a conductor no one
has ever thanked me ever and this man
came up walked over to me he thanked me
for the right you understand the
impression that makes we get on buses
here in Israel we make it onto the bus
that's it don't get caught in the door
well we make it on one way or another a
lot to thank the guy for a lot of people
who didn't make it throw those doors in
one piece thank you very much it said it
yelling it in is as the min ago Marco
let's say thank you good morning to a
bus driver the impression that it makes
there's no way of knowing ourselves how
far that's going in any individual case
what is vital here and I feel always has
to be emphasized to only discuss this
subject is there's very little more
admirable than being concerned as Robert
Levin mentioned not worrying only about
ourselves worrying about other people
and trying to get out of their natural
inclination of thinking about myself
myself myself and the best way to think
about other people obviously is to do
whatever necessary which off ended by
the way is in the gash meais end of it
to bring them back theater sky but there
is one area where we do have to think
about ourselves and that is that no
matter what we're doing you know whether
we're doing it as a bein as Darin I
project after Seder
whether you're what they call a key roof
professional right whether you're a
ready in a Shiva whatever it is that
you're doing but you yourself have to
count
we grow the only way you could share the
enthusiasm is bite you yourself
we ourselves Romanian thew Z astok a
Ventura yes the constantly growing is
learning what we are is going to come
across Laura my yacht Samina Liam that's
us they believe it's our lathe which is
affected by her own learning if a person
is himself excited if a person himself
is enthusiastic that enthusiasm carries
over
it's got to be genuine there's a college
football coach who once said the key to
this business is sincerity once you
learn how to fake that you got it made
you can't fake it you can't fake it you
have to be able to give it over it has
to be the real you that's coming over
there goes about that goes much further
to people could say the same thing yet
it's the one who they feel they sense
the quality that's what they respond to
a person running around a college campus
who has done very little learning but he
could tell you everything that he's
heard on tapes and he brings it over and
tries to give it over okay people now
they're at it comes across very much as
something it's good that he knows it
well they could go to a Talmud talk on
they could go to a Rebbe that you good
as somebody who's learned and he's
giving it over cuz he really knows it he
comes across differently because this
his essence and a bent aureus ago that
he always has to continue growing into
her no matter how much it is how
difficult is our challenging ritual burn
bombs ourselves we Shiva Tamir you Shiva
and I think that this gives a little
perspective of what Torah is and what
our responsibility to tourists should be
and what our connection to tour should
be Ribera bomb was well known tremendous
masks made he was the one who was once
sitting on a plane and he gets he
sitting on the plane and in the business
section of the plane was a former Talmud
of the miry Shiva near in New York he
was worship of Mary ship in New York and
what are the former Tommie time in the
mirror Shiva was now a bit successful
business and was sitting in a business
section he comes to the back of the
plenty of they go to the back of the
plane for some and all of sudden he sees
here's his former Russia Shiva room show
bierenbaum sitting and learning on the
plane in the cattle section so he you
know he's he
setting up up there in business the I
felt marbles they walked so Reese's Rosa
Shiva for Shiva please III have a seat I
have a seating business so let's switch
seats church rule says Tim I don't need
a seat in business
I need a perusal pelvic going next to me
to go sit in business you sit down let's
work how's that for an upgrade expected
was it say was a tremendous mass of it
one day he had otamatone Izzy shiver Reb
Yaakov bender vehicle bender is a
receiver now if there's Shivan I think
dark Haiyan in New York very bigoted
regatta that is a story there was a
competitor himself told over it appears
of the book I'm actual beer mom we had
the bender his mother was an Amana and
he was learning in the yeshiva and one
day he didn't come to Seder and the next
day ritual sent them where were you
where were you for Seder ritual was he
took people to task for it the Seder was
Seder where were you he said well my
mother's and our mama she asked me to go
to Lakewood I had to do her a favor so
you know I went this fast site guy came
back he said yeah but Yaakov was Seder
he says he a Peruvian but others
brahmana said I know
there was Seder she said Rebbe what
would the ratio of himself have done so
she will didn't answer five months later
Rebecca bender with roofs wools
permission was the head counselor of one
of the camps and my in the catskills
head counts was a very big
responsibility and it involved coming
back does man ellos van started involved
coming back five days light in rib
Shmuel very uncharacteristically gave
him resist to be that had gone through
that though meant coming back five days
late so a backhoe bender went up to camp
and then within that five day period
ritual for some reason he had to be in
the camp so he walked over through
Yaakov bender and he said to me ah Cove
where are you this man started two days
ago he said yes you know Rebbe I gave me
was just to be he says yeah but this man
started sugary shows you understand why
can't you find a substitute this is very
and the head counselor head counselor is
a tremendous responsibility I can't
leave here for a minute she feels us him
now what if your mother would ask you
for a favor
what could you possibly say oh well this
is different you know there's camp yeah
that was only learning it's exactly this
point firstly us appreciate what Tori is
and what our dedication devotion to Tori
should be when the Russians do you know
that in Russia they had a clandestine
Bob Shiva movement right under the noses
of the Communists Ravana they were
abundant from here used to go to Russia
and right under the noses of the
Communists they would start teaching
Torah the Russians had a pyramid system
whatever you learned whatever you were
taught you then taught the two people
and the two people would teach it to two
more people and they started a movement
right in Soviet Russia communist Russia
what does the red button went there and
a Russian about chuga kPa said I have a
shylu
what's your Shila so when I learned I
usually am able to learn for about six
hours at a stretch after six hours my
mind starts to wander I have this
problem all the time after six hours my
mind starts to wander says what's your
Shila he says well I know how to stand
on my head so I stand on my head for
about 20 minutes the blood goes to my
head it clears my head then I get myself
up right and I'm able to learn for
another three or four hours what's your
Shila my Shila is while I'm standing on
my head am I allowed to recite Mishnah
is by heart I've been in the see Shiva
35 years thirty years I never had
anybody approach you with that question
right I could tell you rub under Mugen
rub under 50 or 60 years and never had
anybody approach with their question
first of all most people don't know how
to stand on their head and most people
don't know Mitch nice by heart
so you know whatever the answer to that
question is that's the dedication to
learning we have to always remember that
no matter what we're doing that's what
the primary emphasis has to be on it's
got to be on our own personal Talmud
Torah if you're out there I don't care
for persons being makar of the world
twenty-four hours a day
cut it down to 23 if you cut it down to
23 you spend their last hour learning
you'll be more effective as a McCarver
you'll be more effective as a much spear
you'll be more effective as somebody
who's reaching tell me - that's the
estrellas of a person to always realize
that that is something that he should be
doing the yeshiva in the TiVo really saw
her Mayor's that's all Eddie is Shiva
still there now it's named after him my
brother was one of these ship both of my
brothers attended a Shiva and it was
after the think the Yom Kippur War
during the Yom Kippur War there was a
call-up for the boys in the yeshiva to
give blood there was a blood drive they
gave blood and then he went back to the
ship
the next day the Rebbe and Shir said to
the boys it turns to the first place as
roofing what were you thinking when you
were lying on the table giving blood
said Rebbe I was thinking it feels good
to be able to do something for the war
effort Shimon what were you doing what
were you thinking said the same thing
lady went around the entire room after
the last voice spoke every boy gave the
same answer except one my brother he
didn't say anything cuz he smelled he
knew something was up everybody said
same thing it felt good to do something
for the war effort
so he looked into that one say something
you're all a bunch of happy person the
kumar's says somebody who says my yeah
I'm leavin rub bun and what are those
rabbis help us when they're learning
Torah so this is was returned if you
don't realize that when you're learning
tour
you're contributing to the war effort so
then that's what the corn senator says
it's a person who does not be Cory you
have to give blood because that's a
hollow claw and you have to go to the
military center to give blood because
that's what you have to do but if you
think that the giving of the blood is
any more a contribution to the war
effort then your total earning that you
don't appreciate what or is that you're
a person who says by a Hamelin rabona
you have to give the blood that your
responsibility at that moment but your
total learning is responsibility in the
mortar that we learn the more people are
going to be susceptible to our efforts
to be makar of them if you learn Torah
here
there's somebody in Kansas City who's
going to be successful being the car
somebody because the Torah brings that
caution to the Bria and that's something
we have to be reminded of constantly
that's what a person is one of the
pitfalls that awaits a person their
person gets involved in outreach there's
no end to it
it can be doing it 24 hours a day
there's another sign to put up and
there's another another program to run
for what about your own growth which is
ultimately going to be the big mafia and
that a person has to stay focused on
number three is that we always have to
remind ourselves that it's our job to
make the effort we have to do the best
thing that we can but like all
situations in life were not responsible
to bring about results now there are two
where's two directions to go with this
first of all besides the fact that
obviously we don't do it anything that
compromises how often for the sake of
our coders were who according or whose
children we do what we have to do based
on what the Torah says we do in order to
get to get imagine the irony in reveille
a chef said to him invite somebody over
for Shabbos by having them drive a book
drive on Shabbos so what do you want to
do you want to teach them how to keep
shoppers by having them being mahalo
Shabbos so obviously these are silos
have to be a spoke to post get but the
first rule is we don't do anything that
tampers with or compromise
Aloha and a person has their they post
sake that they go to a post sake
somebody who pass concealers not
somebody who is an experienced kirov
professional it has to be post sake pass
conceal wha they ask the halacha shadows
to the number one number two like
everything else in life we know that I
could as work who is running the show
the effort that we make he has to be
with the awareness that that's all were
responsible to do the quarren sucker
says slow mamela once saw the malcolm of
us the malcolm others looked said
someone else said that why is it that
you look sad so he said because there
are these two men that he was sent to
terminate their life and he's not been
successful so slow my amela called the
the heads of deep of the serum and he
said i want you to take these two men
and bring them to the city of lose the
mythical city of lose where no one ever
died there and so slow marmella the the
head of the of the of the shaitaan'
takes these these two men and transports
them to the city of lose city of loses
that city no one ever told a lie and no
one ever died there I don't know which
one is more unbelievable no one ever
died and no one ever told a lie in the
city of lose and saw my mouth said I
want you to transport these two men to
the city of Zeus
so they transported them and right at
the gates of the city of lose they died
before they get into the city the next
day flowing up so the mouth of other
city was all smiles he said what are you
so happy about
he says exactly where I needed them
that's where you sent them that's where
I was sent that was the place where they
needed to be to terminate their lives
I might ask a question they saw my mouth
do the right thing
they died how could it have been the
right thing the answer is imagine your
standing at a 16 lane highway you're
standing there first guy runs across the
highway he closes his eyes and he runs
across the highway car slams on the
brake from the right from the left
screeching tires burning rubber the guy
runs across makes it to the other side
of the street and he finds a wallet with
$40,000 in it the next guy looks both
ways waits for traffic to clear starts
crossing the street in rate in the
middle of the highway a light aircraft
crashes into him and kills him who did
the right thing
who did the right thing the answer is
let's see what you do when you're the
next person across what are you gonna do
well let's read the data the first guy
closed his eyes made it across it's got
40,000 dollars the second guy looked he
looked both ways and he died so that I'm
the third guy what am I gonna do well
third guy is obviously gonna look both
ways you look right you look like you
may look up also but the last thing
you're gonna do is close your eyes and
run across a 16 lane highway the rule is
we have to do what the right thing is
and letter code is worried about the
results reg Lloyd the Bert aneasha
originally a person's feet taken where
he's meant to go how he status yes to be
with an awareness that will try and let
I could've should work we'll worry about
the results of course Brooke was all
sorts of ways of doing all sorts of
things bringing about all sorts of
results that's our responsibility in
Kiros you do what you have to do the
story I have to tell you I've mentioned
it in the past but it's an unbelievable
story a group of cassius mush gave him
many of you have heard it but it's it's
just so unbelievable a group of Cassius
met him went from the United States to
Japan and when they got to Japan they
had to catch a connecting flight and
when he got to the counter the lady at
the counter in Japan said to them they
have to pay another $200 for the
connecting flight and they said no
that's not true they're particulars all
the way through they did it's covered
travel agent took care of everything
and they started arguing with each other
and these guys from long flight from the
United States so they were there already
jet-lagged tired and irritable and she
was frustrated hearing
them in a certain point she turned to
her colleague at the day at the desk and
she cursed them in Japanese she cursed
that you have to be a genius to know
you've been true cursed and these guys
were these guys are frustrated they're
tired and one of them looks at the other
one he kind of nods his head makes a
gesture in their direction and equals
statement from the guar he says she a
Mussolini samus unit which roughly means
may they die a painful death he was in a
bad mood and so she looks at him and she
points down she says in broken dishes
his little office so they walked down
the corridor they knocked on the door in
this office I hear her voice come in
they walk in as a Japanese Colonel
sitting behind the desk
so some imperfect English what's the
problem gentleman said listen she's
given us a hard time our tickets go
through she wants other 200 bucks says
let me see the tickets he pulls out a
pen and he initials the tickets he says
go ahead he get on the plane no problem
it turned out that his name was Shia
Muslim assumption and when she heard
them say she a Muslim Mesa Mishima she
got nervous that they got protect sia
with the boss
she got all nervous under to the boss so
they go into the office and mr. Shia
Muslim assumption then pulls out a pen
in the end of the ticket you see there's
something called I coulda chuckles I
should go huh cause we're running the
world and we have to do what we have to
make your hitch tablets in this case
this table says you know Walton the
Guevarra
I wasn't very nice thing to say but
whatever the establish is this sort of
person say when it comes to heroes
Percy has to know that is the F price
their price is to do the ruts on a
shipment to do it the way it could his
broken once finally there was a story
here near to show took place who was
going around probably about ten years
ago I think there was a traffic accident
and I was in the car accident young man
lying on the street an Israeli soldier
he happened to drive by he picked them
up
hey guys on motorcycles something he
picked them up took him in his car drove
him down to the hospital and dropped
them off in the emerging went to the
emergency room they took him in for
emergency surgery
soldiers saw that everything was under
control so he turned around he left
jury came out told the parents of this
young man who is in the exo they said
listen son's gonna make it who would
have gotten here about five minutes
later he'd be gone by now but he's gonna
have a complete recovery and sure enough
took a couple wit months rehab he was
okay
parents felt very bad because they never
got to meet the young man who saved
their son's life parents owned the
mockolate a little McCullough they put a
sign on the wall of the my colon if
anybody knows the identity of an Israeli
soldier who was at a certain place at a
certain date and his saved took our son
to Roswell please let us know we'd like
to thank him about a year and a half
passes and a woman walks into the store
she takes a look at the sign she says
sir I think I know who that soldier is
she was white white because I think it's
my son my son was in the army he was
coming home from furlough and he told me
that date that was right around then and
he said that he was in certain place he
saw an accent he took somebody to the
high school I think it's my son and I
called him up at the turnout sure enough
was their son and they're very very
joyous reunion now this woman says
mother the soldier says to the
proprietor to the mrs. McCullough she
says I want to tell you something this
isn't the first time we've met so are
you serious she says yes
wouldn't we I don't remember meeting you
she says well actually did one was it
she goes about 20 years ago I was
expecting and I was planning on having
an abortion and I was very depressed and
I happened to come in here to buy
something
and you don't remember it but we sat
down and you spoke to me you empathize
and you convinced me not to go through
that you couldn't really have that child
the baby that was born it was my son the
soldier who saved your son's life
they're both sigh the life that we're
saving when we reach out when we
introduce people to the beauty of Torah
beauty of his guy life that we're saving
may very well be our own person has to
realize we've got a tough kid we've got
a job we've got a risk
because ruffles dropped it on us because
Robles saddled us with it it's not a
choice the same way that everything else
in Yiddish Kate is not a choice this is
not a choice either every one of us has
the capability each person in his area
each person based on his personality
based on his talents based on bilities
capabilities every single person has the
abilities they have a positive effect on
other Jews that's our responsibility
that's our top kid we Davin fresh out
the dish Maya we understand that I could
as well who is really responsible for
the results if we do what we have to do
we leave the rest our coders work with
across grow a bless our efforts that we
should be so fitted as necessary see out
the dish Maya do the ruts on a show and
bring others closer
