0:00 welcome to this week's virtual this week we have the incredible privilege and every par is beautiful every para is magnificent butu is unique in that it's in the form of a Shir it's a song and opens this song literally again 0:20 the heavens should listen and I will speak and let the Earth hear the utterances of my mouth mosu is not just delivering air but the Shir itself is a of testimony you see MOS wants to make sure that CL understands 0:35 that in a relationship with hasem there are expectations like any relationship and if you meet the expectations you could expect certain things from but if you don't meet the expectations then unfortunately they are ramifications as well and spells out the 0:52 details of these relationship expectations and part of the Shir focuses in a very sad way on cloudly is's failure to meet the expectations sometimes mosu says we're just not as committed as we should be in our relationship with hasem and 1:10 one of the ways that mhu Express this is in incredible in chapter 32 verse 18 says which literally translated means as follows you forgot the mighty Rock who birthed you the mighty Rock being a reference to you forgot the God 1:39 who delivered you and of course mosha saying in a beautiful poetic way you forget Hashem that sometimes as life goes on we just forget Hashem now often this happens we know in times of Good Times of difficulty times of distress 1:52 there are no atheists in the fox so everyone remembers when there's an acute need but sometimes when life is good things are tranquil everything is going as a should be sometimes we forget you have forgotten the mighty Rock who birthed 2:08 you you forgot the God who delivered you and the great says something so incredibly beautiful and I want to quote you the says one of the greatest gifts that hem has given us is the power to forget incredible why he 2:27 says because through through the power of forgetfulness of forgetting we're able to forget the difficulties the tragedies of the past and move forward now of course what does the katar mean about that so if you think about it like on 2:46 a clis level because it's think it's easier to imagine this on a on a national than an individual level clis has been through so many traumas and so many tragedies and so many difficulties and yet you would think that because 2:58 of all of that we would be a people who would lack hope lack optimism lack a sense of purpose lack an ability to move forward but yet amazingly enough Cloud how would you categorize us like says because sometimes right some 3:18 has given us an incredible gift the gift of the gift ofi the ability to forget perhaps what the kuska means is it's not as much forget but it's the ability to sometimes push things into the recesses it doesn't live on 3:31 my frontal lobe it doesn't have to be part of my Consciousness all of the time and the truth is even on a personal level gives us the power to forget the power to move forward are there certain things in life 3:44 that you cannot forget of course but if you think about it all of us have failures in life all of us have dramatic mistakes and missteps and hopefully the goal is I don't live with them on my primary Consciousness every 3:57 single day I but it was so dramatic it was so incredible gives us the gift of forgetting the gift of the gift of the gift of forgetfulness it's a gift because think about it if I remembered every single thing that 4:14 went wrong if I remembered every single tragedy every single trauma if I remembered every single thing all of the time it would prevent me from moving forward in my life would prevent me again to be clear kutka is not suggesting 4:28 that we for forget everything there are certain things that happen to us in life that we cannot forget that will always be a part of us but there's what we'll call a stickle forgetfulness a little bit that it doesn't have 4:40 to live on my frontal lobe doesn't have to live my primary Consciousness I'm able to push it back a little bit so that I'm able to move myself forward in life the greatest gift says the K that has given us 4:52 is the ability to forget and what is mosu saying sometimes the sin we commit is that we take the Great gift of forgetfulness and he says God says has given to us why Hashem gave us the power to forget so 5:12 that we can move ourselves forward in life and what happens what do we do and we use the same power of forgetfulness but we use it against God gave me the gift of forgetting the ability to forget the ability sometimes 5:33 to push things out of the primary Consciousness and then what do I do I use it against Theon sh and I forget the importance and centrality of Theon in my life that was the message that mosha was trying to convey 5:50 to CL is don't use the gift of forgetfulness against the God who gave you that very gift don't forget about Theon sh in your life front and center in your life in every part of your life and don't forget but 6:07 I find it very striking to learn this piece of the kater on the day after yipper maybe by the time some of you see this two days after y ker but within the days after y Kipper because one of the 6:19 things that's so incredibly powerful is the ability to forget the past you see we spend focusing on the past with the hyper focus on the past what did I do what didn't I do how did I do it I have 6:31 to do chuva I have to fix this I have to stop doing this start doing this and there's a hyperfocus on what I've done and what I haven't done and how I could set myself up for success but there does 6:42 come a certain point in the dawn of a new year where you have to let last year be last year and I'll tell you something amazing as I was daving Shak this morning so in there's a supplemental paragraph I've sinned 7:04 before you all different types of sin and then there's a place to specify the sin that you've committed and then again it's a request it's a request for CH a request of forgiveness and the truth is I always say it 7:16 because I always have a beus that I have to do chuva for and I started to say it today and I stopped myself I said one second haven't done anything yet it's a brand new year I just had y and 7:30 I haven't I haven't done anything yet the shirt is still white the K's still white the is still pure and I was struggling but but but what but what about that a what about how do I know how do I 7:41 know what what I did forgiveness not forgive stop stop you have to let the past be the past I did sh for those AAS Yumer came along Yumer wiped the Slate clean and now it's time to move myself forward there's 7:58 a beautiful idea by the G asks he says in we say forgive me Hashem for I have sinned and ask the you've sinned what could you possibly have done the ended just ended it can't be that I've eaten without because 8:19 I didn't eat anything yet I'm even too tired to speak what can I possibly have done and says so beautifully that sometimes what we have to ask forgiveness for is not beli that we can really be forgiven I have to 8:32 ask forgive me for not really believing that I could be forgiven forgive me for not really believing that my past is the past and I sad this cathartic moment for me this morning such a dramatic moment where I said to 8:47 myself you know what I don't have to say that paragraph today all right Chances Are by tomorrow I'm probably gonna have to say it but this morning I didn't have to this morning I didn't have to this morning there wasn't 9:01 the need to say today this morning at least the Slate was still clean things were still good my was as it should be my life was as it should be everything was intact you have to sometimes find the power to 9:20 forget and I think it's so important because whether we realize it or not consciously subconsciously we often pull the AOS of the past with us into the present and when you do that it takes the wind out of your cells 9:34 and it prevents me sometimes from actualizing the beautiful future that lies ahead there's a brand new year with Untold possibilities there's a brand new year and I bring all of my coost into that year and says the keres gave us 9:49 the power to forget use it constructively the past is the past forget the AAS that were part of 50 782 forget the mess ups the mistakes the missteps the failures leave it all behind who gave us the power to forget 10:10 use it appropriately and if we are Z to truly forget that which was leave it behind us then we free up all of that emotional energy we free up all of our Kos to create a beautiful life to create a 10:24 beautiful year ahead wishing everyone a good A pava and A beautiful shabis Kesh
