Now we've got the HABA back in the OLAM.




Problem is, these smiley icons can't get as big as my smile right now.

OK Everybody, I'm officially a hypocrite.... Just today I gave an impassioned class about the importance of zreezus, and how you actually enjoy things when you do them with zreezus, yet I wait for the last moment for EVERYTHING!!! While I'm busy glory shouting about zreesus, I can see the audience loving it, and I'm thinking, if only... if only I had zrezus....

I have a very important important class to give tomorrow and I'm still far from finishing preparing it, preparing all the sources, the powerpoint etc.. and here I am!! My crazy long long time!!!

But I love you all!! Thanks for supporting me!!

It is better to feel like a hypocrite b/c I'm not filled with zreesus than to feel like a hypocrite because I'm a p**n fiend!!!

21 DAYS AND COUNTING!!!

A hypocrite is only If you believe something (i.e. a rediculous example - Porn is good for you..it releases stress etc. as some brilliant complex and so open minded that the brains have fallen out type of people maY BELIEVE) and you then preach for whatever reason (your getting paid, you want to fit in) that Porn is evil...That's a Hypocrite.

If you believe that Zrizus is a very good thing and you just don't pass every test to you zrizus that comes your way...well that just makes you Human...Or in the words of the Ba'al Hatanya...we are made up of 2 neshomos, an animal Soul and a G-dly Soul, both battling and slogging it out over the control of your one body - specifically for control of you thoughts, speech and actions...Just because your Nefesh habihamos wins sometimes doesn't take away one iota of your essence the Nefesh Elokis within you which is an actual piece of hashem Mamosh!!!

Haba, let me be the first to wish you a good morning, and also to wish you a good Shabbos.

Have a GREAT DAY, and GOOD LUCK with the classes you're giving!!

PS - You teach them good middos, and just like them, you have to work on yourself, too. The real diff is that you WANT to live up to those madreigos, and you are talking to YOURSELF first while you try to inspire them as well. That's because you are a good, honest person. A hypocrite, on the other hand, couldn't care less - he doesn't even WANT to get there, he's just likes preaching to others to make himself look good. That's because he's a fake.

And you aint no fake, Jake!

Thanks guys, I'm totally hear the chilluk between a classic hypocrite and myself, although I do believe that for me to be really effective at what I'm preaching, I have to be living it as well as teaching it... but to a certain extent I am living it because I'm working on it.....

DAY 23 - That's how old I was when I was 23!!!

Haba a Good Shabbos!!
