hello and welcome to another wonderful episode of mesilati sharim the path of the just we are in chapter 19 towards the beginning and middle we are investigating the the media the moral virtue of khasidut and trying to understand what is so the ramkhal told us and we covered this last time is where you do the mitzvot in order is where you do the mitzvot in order to create to hashem what's a good term for happiness make hashem happy and the way that we do that is that we we recognize what hashem wants and we go beyond the call of duty so the example that i gave is if we are married and your wife tells you i love flowers for shoppers and you go friday and you buy a nice and you go friday and you buy a nice bouquet of flowers and you walk in and you just say here you flowers good job did you get the flowers you got the flower did you give it to her oh you gave her does she have it for where she likes yes but what do you think the reaction is going to be when you come at night to say honey you what a wonderful week we had i said what do you think what do you think in what way are you going to wear your shabbos meal right that's pretty much the guarantee is like you want some soup here's a meatball right that is not the way we do things that is what he is telling us says that that is the way that we figure out what hashem wants
