I know from experience!Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')But don’t worry, I’ll be sure to help you!Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')I am, umm, not exactly the best at everything. I used to be a problem Sephirah, you know.Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')I would sew buttons onto a shirt in the wrong direction, or add salt instead of sugar to food…Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')But still, you can do it!

Please…!I should intervene.Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')…Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')Then please keep this in mind, manager.Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')Once they say they “can’t handle it,” they are no longer part of my Control Team.Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')The Control Team is on the top of all the Sephirot, just like the central nervous system of a human being. If we go down, it’s only a matter of time until everyone else goes down too!Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')At first, it was hard for me to get used to as well.Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')But I worked really, really hard!Malkuth(Id: 'malkuth')So please don’t say something as meaningless as you “can’t handle it.”
