I was never really the best at math but it's just all simple [Music] numbers a person goes through life every single day living trapped in the Whirlwind of the world chasing after the desires chasing after whatever fantasies you realize most people don't never stop they never stop to look up at the sky as RAB nman says just a stop look at the sky look at it stop Daydream a little bit everybody's running a rat race really chasing after the world we are told from the holy text themselves that the grave itself was never full because man's desires are never fulfilled we also learn that a person dies without fulfilling even half of what it was that they set out to accomplish person has to stop you have to think what is my purpose purp what was I put here in this world to do if you ask most people people will be very honest with you that ultimately I know that I'm here to live a Godly life a life of Devotion to God God spares none the holy Torah tells us that God wants to be on our mind from the moment that we rise in the morning and the moment that we lay down to go to sleep when we're walking on our way that we're supposed to have Hashem on our thoughts we supposed to be guiding us when a person person stops and you have to make a decision in life
