I hear all your points actually and I think that all your points are very cool but I don’t agree though with alot of what your saying. ????? ????? ???? ??????? ??????. To tell in the morning of your kindness and your safety/faith at night, does not translate into praying 3 times a day. That’s litterly to wake up and speak of G-ds kindness to appreciate the morning and be thankful and greatul at the rising sun something we all feel and can feel inherently in our being touching upon something that we are greatul for, rising to a new day and thanking G-d out of greatulness and thankfulness a a new day. And appreciating and Praising G-d for his safety at night. Lol avram it sounds more like you never let yourself rest that it bothers you so much that I tell people to live just a smidge in alightment. You are not wrong tho about what you say. And I hear your point. Maybe something in the middle of doing and being though is healthy. And also you don’t stay at a job you hate. You work at a job you can handle or you change your circumstances according to alignment cuz we may not like to work but if we _hate_ working and it’s a horrible job then that’s not healthy. The point is you do adjust your life according to how much you can handle and if you didn’t care at all about your own needs and sacrificed yourself completely for the whole youd have no self so I hear your point your not wrong at all actually makes a lot of sense but perhaps you need balance from doing and being. Wtsup in one word you said I’ve been informed that judism is a box and in the same breathe said every jew _must_ adhere to it. I know I’m nitpicking but your contradicting yourself a smidge. If it wasn’t a box it would have some ambiguity not extreme black and white thinking….But not to nitpick let me give your.
Prayer may be the most wonderful book on earth doesnt mean I can’t admire it for what it is and still choose my way. Everytime you see a painting do you force yourself to love it. You appreciate it for what it is and move on to do your own thing. This is real life.
You may show up for every yid as a whole to daven because that’s your responsibility but your a human being and I’m sure that’s not your intention Everytime you show up to daven and you think G-d can’t hold up the world without you doing exactly what you just said. alao responsibility like that can sometimes be heavy and you can’t expect yourself to always do everything for everyone else all of the time. Your an individual.
Adaptable. But not invincible. I may be able to go to sleep every night only for one hour, I can train myself and adapt myself to that but that will impact my entire life in a negative manner. We can adapt to a lot of things doesn’t mean we will be utilizing our energies properly and in a healthy fashion. If you don’t take proper care of your body if you push yourself further then your capabilities you will ultimately harm yourself . So yes know your limits honor your energies cuz G-d created you to handle only so much.
Wtsup you are wrong. You do not need to adhere to nothing we are born without rules. It is _we_ who make that decision if we want to adhere to something. I do something if I agree with it if I believe it and if I believe it’s true. we are born as free agents of real life you cannot force someone to do something. We need to do it out of our own free will. Because we agree with it. That’s why G-d made Himself invisible so we can be free to find him and learn right and wrong. So we have free playing field to figure out what we think about this world. You cannot force yourself or others to do something you can only show them why its beneficial to do and then they decide to do it lol.
