    There something in our society
    Dunno if it’s arragence, elitism
    Or snobbery
    But stop looking down your nose at others..thanks..yes you have your fancy car. I’m so proud..should I clap.
    I don’t have to dance around all your stupid social rules because you think your so perfect
    We are made of the same dust.
    Your money means nothing
    If you can provide for yourself so perfectly stay humble and maybe help someone else come to your level
    Your eyes and your judgment is nasty.
    Forgiveness
    Mercy
    Who gave you all those things you pride your hands for making
    G-d
    Without Him and His provisions and your minute effort
    Youd be just as down on your luck and a loser just like everyone else
    I propose to you, sir, whoever you are.
    Fight in the arena of real life for one second.
    Your money will not help you
    Your status will not help you
    Only you character and your choices
    Stop judging
    Start understanding
    Forgiveness
    For your own stupidity
    And your own wrongs
    Will give space for others to be themselves around you
    The opposite is judgment and control
    No one needs that energy from you. You are no better then an ant in the grand scheme of this world
    Humble yourself

    Remember from the mussar seforim 3 things and you will never come to sin

    The 3 things are listed as

    1)what do i come from? A tiny putrid drop
    2)where will I be heading? To a place of dust, worms and
    maggots. (Meaning Buried underground and worthless)
    3)who will i give judgment to? To Hashem the king of kings
    ruler of all worlds

    Remember the 3 above ALWAYS and then you will not come to sin or arrogance and it will always remind you wh a txa nothing YOU are which will change your ways to living a life of humility.

    I always say we are born with nothing and we die with nothing because all we take is our choices

    When The corruption Madoff happened the famous line going around the world was:

    “IF YOU WANT TO INVEST, THEN DON’T INVEST IN MADOFF, MADOFF GOT MAD AND FELL OFF, IF YOU WANT TO INVEST THEN INVEST IN CHARITY IT’S AN ETERNAL INVESTMENT THAT CAN’T GO BAD, YOU KNOW YOUR STOCKS WENT UP AND DON’T HAVE TO CALL WALL STREET EVERY DAY”

    What’s a person’s money worth after they leave this temporary physical world? It’s not even worth counterfeit or monopoly money, it’s completely worthless. What do you think the niftars children will buy a Sefer Torah in the zechus of the Neshama?

    Cool! So true. Invest in your family invest in the world. I always find that when I focuse too much on myself. Like “I need to make money” or ” I need to get something” for myself it always has a curse attached to it but when I let go and live for something greater. The job will come and the money also presents itself at the right time but its secondary to purpose
