Toward a Meaningful Life

But fire that's not harnessed and not directed and channeled is all consuming and can be very destructive.

So when you see someone has a lot of fire in them, actually my chapter in youth in Toward a Meaningful Life talks about this, that youth is like fire that needs to be directed when it's harnessed and channeled towards spiritual ends, that changes everything.

Then you're excited about godliness.

So essentially, what is Bananus in the Malachim of B'richas Krishna is telling the Nefer Shabamis, you can have passion, the same passion you have, but it's being directed toward your root, where the passion really originated from.

Because it could be your expectation is, let's say after mariv, stay in shul and say Tehillim, uh, five times, for whatever.

And it could be her expectation is you come home together and you, you read a book about, I don't know, Simon Jacobson's, uh, Towards a Meaningful Life.

At least.

It doesn't matter.
