Pleasure is deceptive and fleeting,

The shortest-lived pleasure is eating.

Worldly enjoyment is usually overblown,

The only way to have Prishus is by spending time alone.

You should be part of society,

But have time alone for piety.

It is a good thing to be strict,

But balanced by values that might conflict.

The type of prishus that Chazal recommended,

Is to find ways to avoid being tested.

With everything kosher, you can still overeat,

Enjoy the essentials, but stay away from the treats!

Perishus is seperating yourself from the croud,

By holding back from what you are allowed.

The world is here for us to enjoy,

But too much indulgence can destroy!

Learning Torah leads to action,

And gives you deep satisfaction.

You have to learn what Torah entails,

And constantly review its many details!

Tayva is bad, but kavod is more destructive,

Jealosy, lust, and honor are seductive, not productive.

If you are committed to nekiyus in your mind,

Your actions will follow closely behind.

When a person is consumed by כעס,

They become irrational, without any דעת.

Be weary of wanting what other's own,

Since jealousy will rot your bones!

On today’s podcast, I am chatting with Chika,

Before the UK, she lived in Africa.

Chika is now a privacy pro in FinTech,

As DPO, she keeps data in check.

Without humility,

It is hard to live a life of tranquility.

Gay'va is something everyone can stumble,

Even those that appear to be humble!

In order to go out to war,

You had to be a naki to your core!

Hilchos Shabbos has many details,

Don't make or even talk about business sales!
