[Music] friends i think that one of the most beautiful conversations i had in quite some time happened recently when a dear friend and i were discussing how we feel like we're making so many mistakes with our oldest children with our firstborns where there was some kind of expectation coming from us that we should know how to be how to act how to mechanic i don't know where this false assumption comes from but somehow it's in many people perhaps in all of us where there's this expectation i should know things that i never did before and if i don't perform them in a way that i feel would be rowing proper and suitable in the eyes of hashem i go through this whole cevu of this whole cycle of guilt which basically results in separation from keva from closeness and then while we were talking we asked ourselves why on earth do we expect to know how to do things that we never did before
