believe that they always say believe that [Music] I think we're Patriot dollars thank you ah so everybody understood what we learned till now no nothing it's hard now yeah foreign [Music] I got a letter I want to read to you I just got it this morning from a woman in Israel she's following these uhmo and so she wrote me a long letter in Hebrew actually but I just want to read a few paragraphs it was very powerful it is very powerful she describes how she's listening to the to the minor that we're learning and she said I dive into Hashem that I should be successful in understanding the message and the theme and the ideas of Basilica of gimmel 1963. the mime is very very deep and requires tremendous concentration from me from me and for me to immerse my thought in it and it requires for me to open up my soul so I asked Hashem to help me and indeed God showed me that I don't have to go so far in order to open my soul and understand it I was married in a previous marriage and I have in my house a girl 16 years old my daughter from my first marriage and uh she's struggling a lot and I have found that my girl's sense of I is really in prison and in deep Darkness her sense of AI is shrouded in a lot of darkness and confusion or as the mime put it her ordained self her infinite light is trapped my communication with this girl and my relationship with this girl turned into a very very heavy yoke and an ongoing agonizing story
