00:00:05.147 --> 00:00:27.012
You are children of HaKadosh Baruch Hu, of God Almighty, and just as the Pesach says that we are children, that kind of also makes us all siblings, brothers and sisters, because we share the same Father and therefore it is our job to play nicely with the other children.

00:00:27.012 --> 00:00:32.746
That's what God wants when he drops us off at Mora at daycare.

00:00:32.746 --> 00:00:38.506
He wants that we should share our blocks and eat our cheese sticks and applesauce.

00:00:38.506 --> 00:00:59.512
There are an incredibly few amount of mitzvos that are rewarded as greatly as playing nicely with the other children, as taking to heart that there are certain mitzvos that have no quantity.

00:00:59.512 --> 00:01:07.754
God wants us to keep giving our blocks away and keep being benevolent and kind to our fellow compatriots.

00:01:07.754 --> 00:01:16.013
Not only that, but acting kindly towards our friends, to the other children and the playgroup of earth.

00:01:16.013 --> 00:01:24.450
It's also something that is so beloved that God keeps the keren.

00:01:24.450 --> 00:01:28.516
He keeps the reward in check, not only in this world.

00:01:28.516 --> 00:01:42.114
The reward is there for you, perfectly intact, for your righteous giving towards other children in the next world.

00:01:42.114 --> 00:01:53.765
Our job during Elul specifically during Elul, because we should be getting this back in our heads is to be resetting our mindset of playing nice with the other children.

00:01:53.765 --> 00:02:26.342
And if it's not just to talk inspiration, then just keep in mind the Rambam, the laws of repenting, that, with all of the potency of the day of Yom Kippur, ein HaTshuva V'Lom Yom HaKippur, mechaprim Ela Avera Sheben Odom LaMakom, all of Tshuva and all of the Day of Atonement does not rectify any sins that were done between Ben Odom Lechaveru, avera Sheben Odom Lechaveru.

00:02:26.342 --> 00:02:35.931
Not sharing your blocks God forbid taking something from your friend, not acting nicely or playing nicely with the other children.

00:02:35.931 --> 00:02:42.532
The Day of Atonement does not help until you return the blocks and be Mephiasim and ask him for forgiveness.

00:02:43.401 --> 00:02:52.171
Our job during Elul is to recall and truly take to heart just how important it is to play nicely with the other children.

00:02:52.171 --> 00:02:56.127
They really are our siblings Bonim Atem, lashem, elokeichem.

00:02:56.127 --> 00:03:02.980
And like this, you don't need Yom Kippur to atone for those sins between man and his fellow, because you've already taken care of them, appeased everyone that you've hurt.

00:03:02.980 --> 00:03:12.641
To atone for those sins between man and his fellow because you've already taken care of them, appeased everyone that you've hurt and you've taken to heart to refrain from doing such things in the future.

00:03:12.641 --> 00:03:18.423
That's how you repent and share your blocks with your fellow citizens.

00:03:18.423 --> 00:03:31.925
Thank you.
