What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi YY Jacobson’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
One of the challenges in life or I should say one of the opportunities in life is flexing the muscle of experiencing everything that has happened to us with us connected to us in our life and yet learning from them rather than getting stuck by them. We have a cellular memory of almost not almost of every single experience from the moment of conception. the moment of conception. And uh how does one move on? How does one move on without stepping away in the sense of I'm naive. I don't remember anything. But how does one in a very integrated and conscious and loving and healthy way have the courage to be able to learn from the past? but not remain stuck there practically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. psychologically and spiritually. The Tyra, as you know, we always talk about the fact is the blueprint that the creator has given the Jewish people and humanity to navigate the voyage of life. Everybody remembers the days before Google maps and GPS when you were going with your husband somewhere and he did not ask for directions. You remember? And he got lost cuz he knew better than everybody else and you had to stop in one gas station, a second gas station. Nobody will realize how much weighs and Nobody will realize how much weighs and Google maps have created. The problem is those who don't even listen to directions when somebody is telling it to them in the car because it's a woman's voice telling him what to do and he has enough listening to one he doesn't want to hear another one. In life we have a GPS called God's positioning system. The voyage of life is complex winding roads. We can end up in traffic jams. We can get lost. We can end up in a ditch.
