[Music] okay good morning everybody hope everybody's well we've been talking about meaning the lack of it how much of it is part of our world how important it is for us to think about it i think or else you really run the risk of spending a lot of your time doing something that has no value i tell my kids when you watch a game don't get lost in the game if you can't learn something after a game you've lost it what's the point it's just a game it's not real in no way mean that we should stop working or stop trying to achieve our goals or don't quit our jobs no that's not that's not the way it's not the jewish way but sure not that's not how we see the world i don't believe that that's not the way of spirituality as we see it we don't think that the way you achieve spirituality is by leaving anything that's not how we see the world we believe or i believe we believe to be more accurate the way you achieve spirituality is not by leaving the world but by elevating the world god wants as the little bobby trebbie said a dwelling in this world he doesn't want you to leave law he wants he wants you to bring him into law he doesn't want you to leave sports if you overwhelm yourself in sports then you're wasting your time but he doesn't want you to leave it he wants you to bring god into it you don't leave your life you bring god into your life it's a totally different set of skills it's a different part of your brain
