the mine welcome for this but one of my
one of my Heyliger we weren't abuzer
truths but we were friends one of my
calves a rim in interest Moshe mentioned
to me that there's a reason that says
that if you do not mention the name of
the person you are marking the gula
which is pretty heavy
which means all you all out there that
come up with sure them and pretend like
they're yours but really three with

have you heard this before you are
incredible you are your actual I don't
know if you are you might not be you
might be really not good but but so far
you're doing really well you're doing
really well
yeah now listen to this this is a person
who's in a relationship when a person is
in a relationship and the relationship
is going well it's going phenomenal a
person is in love when the purse is in
love what will they do everything
they'll go above and beyond they'll go
the distance they'll do more than anyone
couldn't even imagine and it's not a
burden it's not challenging is it that
there are no rules there of course
there's rules but their focus is totally
not there their focus is on the
relationship when things are going well
we focus on the relationship when we're
going in the relationship I would do
anything for that and I would do that we
do anything we go above and beyond we go
the distance persons first anniversary's
coming up what do they do they stay up
all night long getting ready preparing
putting things together aren't you tired
tired who cares
aren't you hungry what does it matter I
love Ryan things are going things are
going great now one we think like okay
love yeah it's like a nice guy you
should concept you know love right it's
not like we have via half dose of
Charlotte Kershaw and things like wait
love is real this such a thing called
love
now could be that many people don't have
it and it's more infatuation you know
classic ich move there it's possible but
ok if you can go beyond two years
without kids and still be connecting
with each other then we could start to
see there's something real there but at
least in the beginning they're in love
Britons in love and what happens to a
person's in love so we know the Gemara
comes and tells us the Gemara tells us i
think it's a set head Joan on page 105
but you're not gonna check anyway
the governor says maybe it's go file if
I think it's cafe if it's cooked ham and
Island and the gomorrah says it's also
brought enemy just ten kumar Norden hey
yes I think Ron she brings it down in
Genesis I'll be the first book of the
five books voracious chapter I'm gonna
go 22 I think it's also brought down and
pushes Bullock the flip side of this
says the measure says Rashi says the
Gemara I have uh McHale Kelly this
Ashura loves messes up lines what else
what else messes up lines love messes up
lines what else
hate messes up line love is binding this
infatuation that's infatuation but your
love mess up lines hate messes up lines
well what is that what I mean where do
we find this
so what's 22 or 21 waiting punches for a
row
yeah Gotham Aveeno I caught this
vocalist disc a closely because because
sure after and go kill him and what
happens my gosh came out from Bob okay
Alvin gets up early in the morning but
Jakob watches Komuro he saddles his own
donkey now recognized
Avram Aveeno was a billionaire a
billionaire I'm a veto I mean he had
loads of stocks in flocks
the guy was loaded he had servants had
people working for him when do you find
that a billionaire saddles his own
donkey so we do have another man welcome
where's that good bill um
bill I'm out of the show what happens a
bit on what happened the bill up bilham
gets up early in the morning but yeah
Cobo says yeah so no good
it's a good question why I switched over
there so you have done before minute
something but okay we go ahead and we
switch it but in point is the same love
myths up lines and over there
take us out hate the messes up lines now
the hate is a separate in the discussion
I'm not I just wanted to bring out the
point but love is where we're focusing
here our person who goes then their love
they'll be able to go and they'll be
willing to go above them be able to do
more than ever would have done the first
place I've mentioned many times in the
past that I have tremendous at cars at
ov I went to a high school called Davis
friend of Sally she bicycle for boys I
think there's an RN s with us perhaps
today and I I couldn't get into high
school so they made one for me and I
really am indebted for that thank you
very much it's very nice them to accept
me on behavioral and academic probation
and the receiver there if he saw coming
Netscape he did a lot for me and there's
one thing to think I felt the guide to
thank him for I hadn't seen her many
years and I and I saw him in Eretz
Israel on a little of st. James I don't
know what that is in the old city rights
when you're coming down how are you pal
Harry Potter Ville and then you make a
left so so I saw become an esky there I
saw him like oh yeah be so nice to see
oh he said no now that I'm seeing you he
comes every winter to visit his tummy
there I'm seeing I'm seeing my one
hundred and eightieth alumni we both
corrected him almost alumni whatever
it's my focus whether they asked me to
leave I want early admissions
okay so I said you know there's two
things I have to thank you for you said
okay what imagine 20 years later you see
a teacher you want to go ahead you want
to thank them what are you gonna thank
them for I said number one I want to
thank you for that little incident that
happened in ninth grade when the English
principal wanted to have me arrested and
you held them off thank you very much
can't go into it it's a non-disclosure
number two number two I want to thank
you there was a rule in our school that
you must have your shirt tucked in you
must have your shirt tucked in he
laughed at me when I said he said we got
rid of that a long time ago
but when I was there it was the first
year of the school and they were
actually trying to make it look like
something so there these rules I for the
life of me could not concentrate having
my shirt tucked in I know it's hard to
imagine being that I'm a very orderly
person and probably you can see me as a
mathematician of sorts but it's just I
just couldn't handle it and he gave me a
pass I was the only kid in the school
the only kid in the school that had a
pass that I didn't have to have my shirt
tucked in tremendous now you think like
okay like what's the big deal but
everybody are something that bothers
them yeah if something that bothers them
and that thing is bothering you you're
just like when you're taking a test you
know and someone's like with their pan
they're going like and you love it you
love it you love it to death and not
exactly a bullet you can't concentrate I
also couldn't concentrate my shirt you
see you don't have that protected fast
forward a few years of driving up to
Montreal Canada I'm going to visit my
wife I'm on my way to visit my wife this
time because we were not yet married and
I was driving with somebody
my parents had wanted to go alone
I Drive it's a 400 mile drive sister
kilometers for all your Canadians out
there eight and within a block at Allis
I stopped the car my friend goes what
are you doing and I got out of the car
I started to tuck myself in and then my
friend went in like what are you what's
going on I said I don't know but love
messes up lines when a person's in love
they'll go above and beyond if you're in
a relationship and the beginning
relationship and the things are awesome
things are going great and things are
going amazing
so everything's one two five of things
while now let's fast forward a little
bit raka monoliths lon Lowell a new what
is that come on let's lawn mean don't
even tell me raise your interview now if
you don't raise your hand that means you
don't know and if you do I'm calling on
you what is our smanos I've ever heard
the expression rocks model it's lund
right how many who's heard the
expression here we all heard it now keep
your hand up if you know what it means
not fascinating what's more fascinating
if someone didn't hear it but they knew
what it meant I was amazing
oh I just rocks monoliths line literally
means me the merciful one save us we
should never have to follow such an idea
so the next time you say you're
something bad to your ear ah come on
Olaf it's always great near the Bali to
becoming they don't know the difference
someone's like I had a baby well come on
girl it's done oh they're like somebody
passed away Oy
Mazel Tov Mazel Tov I never let Sun
Laurel a no or Lorelei any law Lena
means it should not be upon us when a
relationship perhaps gets into a
situation where it starts to go a little
bit lower so we got up in the top here
yachts going grades Rocking but then it
drops a little bit and that love isn't
there anymore so now all those rules
that used to not bother you and not only
did they not bother you but you'd be
willing to take more rules upon yourself
I'll do more for them I'll go above and
beyond I'll do more I'll do more for
them all those rules start to be very
obvious and they start to stay in that
anybody get me
don't be embarrassed anybody got me yeah
only the women
I only feel like I'm understood this
side of me it starts to shift from this
relationship to now falls into category
of rules now what happens when folks are
category rules
okay em here we go I'm hungry so you'll
be the wife now call me up let's say
honey yeah okay I'm hungry and I say
back when we're in rules I say all right
I have rules I have obligations the
things I've to take care of there's
stuff I have to do I'll do what I have
to do I'll pick you up something to eat
goodbye now I'm doing gonna have to do
I'm getting them something to eat that
they said they're hungry I'm gonna take
care of I have to take care of however I
wherever can you see the difference now
it becomes rules
now what happens about kimono let's
learn what does that mean may the
merciful protect the spider that's
Hashem I know if I made it clear
may I shall protect us if it goes more
than that
and it doesn't go back up now it's not
unusual for a relationship to go like
this it's not unusual for there's okay
there's ups there's downs but hopefully
the up is more than the down the up is
more than the down that the direction is
this way and not that you know now like
that but if it starts to go like this
then all of a sudden not only do you
notice the rules but the rules start to
bother us now colds mine I was in love I
was willing to handle the fact that I
didn't have colds man I was in love I
was willing to deal with the fact that
Oh Megan as long as I was in love I had
the rules didn't bother me and even when
I wasn't so in love but it dropped a
little bit I was still willing to deal
with the wolves but what happens if the
relationship doesn't pick it up then not
only do the rules bother me I'm not
interested in having the rules anymore
cuz the cost/benefit isn't worth it
and well it's not worth it anymore what
happens to the relationship it's
finished finito as a feeling Lisa Moses
did him in Elmo's done I think he's
totally done okay that rock monoliths on
me god save us
should help us no one ever should be in
such a situation or main we should all
be rich however however however however
let's take a look at Judaism now could
be one of you said it and if you did I
apologize I didn't hear it
I heard Torah I heard God I turn a sham
heard yay all right I heard ideas about
this but nobody did I hear and if he
said I apologize I didn't either anybody
say relationship what is Judaism Judaism
is a relationship that is what yiddish
guy is it is a relationship are there
rules and relationships absolutely there
rules and relationships however if
you're in love than the rules not only
do they not bother you're you're willing
to go above and beyond and do more and
do more into more how do we look at you
this guy so you look at about two of
versus a person who grew up religious
you can see this event it's an
excitement there's a hunger inside them

life you know you know wait a day and

level me let's go see those I'm able to
do more and more and more and this is

back up and base Xiaomi says you ready I
hear that I hear somebody leaves their

you know in the bottom say like I'm
really speaking to myself if you want to

easier to give other people show some
real cash over metallic shot that's my
car
okay in any event and their friends what
happens a person goes ahead and the
Judaism is amazing I'll go beyond then
it falls to a Beyonce and then they no
longer feel the blend the fire the
excitement the passion and then they say
you know what not only do I notice the
rules not only are they troubling I'm
not interested them in them anymore and
then what happens god forbid done
everybody hears this scary
when we see that year the skate is a
relationship this isn't a fluffy like a
nice little project inspire yay yay

people it's just like a kind of like a
nice little cute seek that is Yiddish
kite Yiddish kind is a relationship with
the people of Shalom that is you this
kite but unfortunately sometimes what
people do is they don't get that in my
experience I have seen at least I can
just tell you in terms of my own
experience you can have your own that's
fine everyone's okay whatever you want
to take yours I'm taking mine my
experience is that people that grew up
religious you know we look at the
reports on the two different ways we
have a vino and well guys you're not
doing well today
yeah yeah we do have a vino and volcano
what's a Vina what does that mean father
what's volcano

religious grew up with Mal Kane Malcolm
yeah and my very it's it's volcano MOOCs
ah mmm
Kaiba's sure let's go no total smear
hoes like chill chill
take it easy and those who grew up
secular grew up Avinu RV no I got a guy

Divino and by virtue of the fact that
when I said Yiddish guy nobody here
except for the one who did I didn't hear
you
there's always that one who after it
said I said where besides you you did
say about the you did say it besides you
how come nobody said relationship
because you didn't grow up with that
being here this guy you didn't grow up
with year this guy is relationship with
three boenish lon we grew up with Torah
and that's what I meant by Tyra I meant
what I said
can't you see how good it is
relationship a y-axis a real
relationship do bonus column and if a
person drops from there they become a bo
say the Fabio say they say I'm yo
say I'm out and it's done so which one
is it the answer is it's both Girish
kite is a relationship and you just get
his rules it's both they're both there
the question is what do you choose to
focus on do you choose to focus on the
fact that you have must do this must do
that must do this most of that or do you
focus on the fact that this is our
Father in Heaven we have the opportunity
to be connected with the Almighty we
have can be connected with that Shem
that's incredible what do we look at now
how does that pan out we're gonna play
another game now we did a little word
association game we're gonna do another
one this is a word translation game I'm
gonna say word I want you to translate
it I say a word you translate it here we
go ready
the word is ha go now with relationship
yes another interpretation owes you okay
now I told you that I in at uh now okay
uh Bellomo Cena and the slanderers scoff
scoff of slanders okay uh baroque I love
that one okay oh look at that nice
whipping out to be shown him alright
Torah
okay there's how many blue room right
now there's about two thousand people
here three three thousand three thousand
people maybe in eighth of the room
that's a lot for three thousand so let's
say there's like 250 300 I said when his
tour Amin so quiet it was so quiet why
was it so quiet
what is Torah mean rabona shillelagh
Shen do not pull this move on me later I
knew it I just didn't want to say it you
know wanted to give other people a
chance that they also know it then
didn't say it okay so for those who
spoke up you're correct the word Torah
means instructions you want to call
guidelines and that that's better it's
fine called guidelines
I always even meant I didn't want to go
down there but I was hoping this these
are the easy ones I didn't get to the
hard one yet so we're having trouble
already
oh yes right what does all you mean okay
Randy Rock come on oh let's lon
okay no no no no no no I guess Mac you
ball dig hey they're like the same thing
twice as like I heard her and then okay
okay with this one how about this one
how about this one now I'm gonna ask you
word I want you to give me a translation
of the word I don't want us a shear or a
nice beautiful idea I'm Chi I want you
to translate the word who's up for it I
don't up for the challenge I want to ask
you personally who who wants to take it
on yeah it can I do it is this your
grandson was it you don't know this kid
you came yourself
how'd you show up here I'm Mordecai trap
Wow how young you look what big eyes you
have
alright everybody what is the word
mitzvah mean okay good now hi we have
something called relationships yeah
relationships we have something called
rules and as you can see over here
there's nothing here that's if we go
beyond that relationship rules let's
work within rules let's continue on with
our mal que no mal que you know what's
your disguise Mitzvahs what amidst those
rules commandments really it's accurate
salve Salve as a Comanche boy so that's
good we're correct there's only one
problem not there's really only no
problem this there's a huge problem if
you look at you dish kite-like rules or
like torah or like however you were
looking before then in the tsunami you
will translate mitzvot probably along
those lines and that's what you all did
whoever did and we translated mitzvahs
Commandments or command monday our
mental and that's correct
pero if anyone was paying attention at
approximately 1248 a.m. on Friday night
Chavez early morning when remember the
old gold mentioned he quoted me saying
this particular Zoey that the Gemara
brings down the word mitzvah comes from
another word which is south so which
means ella punto de connect see on south
saw is a point of connection or
connection point who here speaks modern
hebrew do you guys do anything does
anybody do anything here
they're all answering I'm just saying
they're not though does anybody here
speak a little Hebrew yeah a little yeah
okay how beautifully yeah Kotani okay
slowly okay what is the word sad that
mean you go to an organization you go to
some event like this you'll see in the
back it'll say seventh that seventh is a
staff or a crew or a group why is the
word in Hebrew seventh because the word
said vet is another word for Mitzvah or
savta which means connection points when
you work together at a particular event
you're all there for one point as soon
as that point is gone everybody disbands
so if you translate Mitzvah is command
which is accurate then you're in the
world of rules if you're in the world of
rules here in the world of Malky know if
the world of alkane know you're in the
world of Albie Yotes say if you're in
the world that I'll be yo say it's
you're in the world of like if I must I
to give you a noise that would be like
if you're in the world of relationship
you're in the world of point of
connection even the world the point of
connection you're in the world of Avinu
if in the world of Avinu you're in the
world of awesome in the world of awesome
it's yo yo so which one are we are we or
yeah yeah and judging on what we've seen
so far things are not looking too good
fellows and fellows fellows and fellows
fellow eights
Toulouse fellows not looking too good
where are we holding what is here this
guy to us this is not philosophy this is
soakin this is the ultimate of what it's
meant to be the Tsar goes into it not
that I would know
under 40 but when I was over 40 this
always speaks about the whole concept of
the relationship between the Jewish
people and a sham and love that the
forefront of course is something called
Lyra and there's something called mal
que no what's the purpose of year in mal
que no what's the purpose they keep you
in check it is a safety net it's a
safety net but do not confuse yeeeaaahhh
as the ultimate relationship certainly
not year astonish us that robo Morse I'm
not going to start with cuz you're gonna
hold my cloak as we've shown them but
I'm not going to do that but you're its
owner certainly not try to imagine it
like a couple that's married for ten
years at their 10-year anniversary the
husband takes his wife out for a
beautiful anniversary dinner and the
wife is always astounded how is he
always so good he's amazing he's so
amazing incredible so she decided to ask
him he never missed a birthday
anniversary birth birth Sri and Anna
thing never misses it so she decides to
ask him tell me how are you so perfect
so we go stop it thank you but no really
please no no no please no no tell me how
and now she sees he starts getting
nervous what it's nothing I love you how
are you so perfect he's like okay I'll
tell you I'll tell you before we got
married I had a meeting with my rabbi
and he told me every woman carries with
her two pistols
one in her purse and one in ur sheitel
and I was told if I ever mess up it's
over can you imagine the feelings of
love the wife will be feeling at that
moment that's why you were so perfect he
goes yeah that's that was everything
that she's all devastated he goes I'm so
sorry yeah and she goes well you're
right answer is here is a relationship
you're as in check if you don't have
here it's a problem if in a relationship
you don't understand that there's
boundaries that's a problem but that's
not the relationship the relationship
Basava the relationship is love the
relationship is connection and
relationship so why are we holding
person says what's with all these rules
the others kind of so it's so burdensome
it's so Chea
it's so challenging it's so hard it's so
difficult why does God have to make it
so many rules
I've never heard a cousin or a caller
ever I never really spoke to them but
I don't imagine I would have heard that
a person's walking down and someone
whispers you know that once you do this
you're now stuck that the guy was like
walking goes forgot it goes what are you
talking about stuck with what's talked
with this woman so like it's amazing I
love this person of course I'm gonna be
with this person yeah Covino style go it
I want to be with this bit of court
there's rules
who cares all those rules are just there
to teach us how to have the relationship
that's it all these quote unquote
burdensome things are there for us to
actually get something out of life I
always think of it like a roller coaster
you go to a roller coaster anybody been
to a roller coaster no column oh come on
yes
great adventure you're gonna make an
intervention
you always have it's like it's only Jews
but everybody's wearing their Yankee cap
with a one-string of it's it's it's
sticking out and they're like walking
like as if like sums like no means about
the hot dogs and the guy goes voice I
don't know you talk about I am not there
why you think I'm Jewish you know young
cadet Kim and I we know you're Jewish if
you are Yankees that you are Jewish
that's it
how do we know because the Yankees are
rich you go to a rollercoaster there are
tons of rules by tons I mean like six
but it's an expression you can't be too
tall
you can't be too short you must keep
your arms and legs and all times if you
have long hair you must chop it off if
you have a long beard or pious if you
have jewelry you must either keep it
very collect close and tight or take it
off this with this place I thought this
is like an amusement park I thought it's
just that fun here supposed to enjoy
ourselves why are the rules I want to
put my arms the legs out I want the
jewelery let it ride I wanted to make my
hair all there out and wear loose
clothing and not put the thing all the
way down what will come back maybe a
torso I always think about in terms like
that it would be like on the calamari so
it's kind of different to us make sure
your titles are on well your tires are
tied very tight your fitness are in
flack up and in get yourself and go
at the end they give out kögel and when
it's not like the same pictures they
sell in the negotiation of things they
sell a picture of you whatever they have
a family picture after it's like comes
I'm stopped ah yes these rules are there
for us to be able to connect and be able
to get to the highest levels of
excitement and joy and connection it's
not there to lose it's there to gain
anybody who says what's with all the
rules either is and I'm saying this now
in seriousness and I apologize either
right now is not doing too well in terms
of their own relationship either with
Hashem or with their spouse or with
their kids or whatever's going on and
that's the way that they see everything
someone who's raised on what it really
is about that soo-mack it's amazing it's
unbelievable and you wake up in the
morning not oh no I have to but I can oh
no I must but what an opportunity a
different look it's up to you what do
you want to look at it like okay people
we're on to do right now just a quick
recap everything we did will end up with
one point and then that'll be it here we
go so we started off in the beginning uh
spent little association up down right
left all around black white aren't you
guys you guys I'm gay get a sky cricket
Judaism as it had ever been the rules
before anybody understand the color has
anybody been in the rules before yes or
no do they understand the question now
catch at
that's what a person what when the
relationship drops a level now I'm inner
rules so we think we think absolutely
about it my personal rules a little bit
Alicia president love to go bug me out
to do more yes mayor get me something
further further where'd you go with it
mayor leave me no there you are horny
manatees are the further get myself a
pizza pies or three slices salad now why
to get more kids you supersize this
can't get a diet coke please a little
sweetener a little bit fat little chip
make it makes the crispy thank you that
a person can see little bit further in
typically I'm gonna do a little but then
what happens is relationship goes on
Rach come on ol its lon around come on
not lease lon
it breaks that a little bit becomes
rules becomes okay I get you something
to eat it gets more than all the sudden
I can't say anymore I don't want anymore
leave me alone right really delete
collared the black car whatever it is no
longer a relationship totally done it so
don't have enough food in this house let
me get a little further what's your dish
guides cricket a sham so nice toga
yeah mitzvahs beautiful relationship are
there rules of course this rules the
stones are world but who cares about the
rules I'm in love who says the Gemara
could fail morale but they don't support
never been a 55-year donate heads
vanraj shields better a sheet two
different places I do and I haven't look
against this sure you tuck yourself in
we do things that are above and beyond
that we never would have done before
because I'm in love but if Romano let's
unload Lina let's unwrap is it breaks
out a little bit it becomes rules okay
okay we bonus all I'll do what I have to
do I'll be oats a OB oats a as opposed
to I want to do more in the future said
then I'll come before Daphne I'll come
early I can't wait I'm excited I'm gonna
watch them in a bench
I forgot my band Jing I'm sorry sham
it's still here I'm within 72 minutes
it's still right there on the table you
sit down and we bench what excitement or
an awesome feeling it breaks down to be
oats it breaks down I'm not interested
anymore
what some Mitzvah and put through the
connect see on over there one it's worth
money I meant thought - I'm pretty good
see all the questions when you look at
it feels like a rule it's a commandment
than yes the way up over here is what we
got rules
we got Commandments we have fine I'll be
outside we have relationship be a point
of connection we have incredible amazing
I'm legal fantastic film as many more as
you want over there so which one do we
look at people how do we
see it understand of course you will
never do in order to protect you in
order to make sure that you don't fall
as we know every loving relationship has
two pistols and a person goes I
recognize that and realize that all of a
sudden the truth he said will turn
around 180 degrees for those didn't know
I come on oh let's learn 180 degrees is
half of a circle but I'm assuming if you
knew I wanted something that's where
maybe didn't know it but a bit under 80
degrees is half a circle we took a
relationship that you didn't will
totally flip around how we look at it
now I want to end up for this one last
point I want to end up with this one
last point I want to end up at this
point
I get the mythos I get it you want to
see its relationship and that kind of
stuff but stop it why so many it still
bless you why so many and the details of
the details we don't even 613 missiles I
leave another 613 through I bought on
billion I said what's with the billion
why why all of these little details I'm
being good I'm connecting I'm doing why
not to do like no it's like mom is like
this and get to that back years thinking
why does that even make a difference
what's the answer okay good the Fuca he
wrote or mitzvahs excellent it's the
round on and the Pierce was nice Marcus
Wow
now we're getting into it a little bit
try to think for a moment if someone
were to walk over to you haven't seen in
years
and says to you
April 21st is anybody's April anybody's
birthday April 21st that didn't work
is it today happy birthday imagine
someone comes over to and says to you
moysha like my name is Khayyam we're
talking about but they know your name
they know your birthday and they
remember the snack you ate in class from
30 years ago how do you feel besides a
little creeped out how do you feel if
someone walks over to from last year's
convention who you met one time and
comes over and says your name how do you
feel what's the answer you feel great
you remember my name your name I
remember where you live restraining
order I remember your birthday because
you know they say that this idea that a
chef loves you she loves us so much
that's that that's nice but you don't
real love is when I shall loves you this
much and when we love a sham this much
when we love em so much that the details
make a difference and we're careful at
them and we make fun of people that are
Medoc thick in their mouth near we make
fun of them but making fun of a person
who loves the Ramona show Lola who gets
the last laugh the Sutton who gets the
let that they say the devil is in the
details
sometimes one spouse is the devil but
we're saying how much you really love
the person is when you know the details
when you care about the details so let's
try again I'm gonna play a little
Association game I'm gonna say a word
you tell me what comes to mind
Girish kite
come on people you're so weak Yiddish
kite have a great day thank you for
coming by
