How do you specify the absolute $Path to the Folder and File that it can't seem to find?

Hello I am creating a Discord Bot on my MAC with Big Sur 11.0.1 and am having problems with my JavaScript Code can someone please help me?
I installed Node.js and Discord.js
I used NPM Init to create the json files in the correct folder

When I attempt to execute the code I continue to get this error

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:928

  throw err;

  ^



Error: Cannot find module '/Users/ufreewoody/desktop/MyDiscordBot/commands/${file}'

}

I have attempted to edit the $Path variable using the
Sudo nano /etc/paths
command and I tried to specify the absolute path to the main.js file with
/Users/ufreewoody/Desktop/MyDiscordBot folder
this is where this file is located but it is still not working.

What am I doing wrong with my code or what can I do to specify the absolute path to the folder and file.

Code Block 
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();
const prefix = '-';
const fs = require('fs');
client.commands = new Discord.Collection();
const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync('/Users/ufreewoody/desktop/MyDiscordBot/commands').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
for(const file of commandFiles){
    const command = require('/Users/ufreewoody/desktop/MyDiscordBot/commands/${file}');
    client.commands.set(command.name.command);
}
client.once('ready',() => {
    console.log('Walter is Online!');
});
client.on('message', message=>{
    if(!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) return;
    const args = message.content.slice(prefix.length).split(/ +/);
    const command = args.shift().toLowerCase();
    if (command === 'ping'){
        client.commands.get('ping').execute(message, args);
    } else if (command == 'youtube'){
        client.commands.get('youtube').execute(message, args);
    } else if (command == 'Strawberry'){
        message.channel.send('Im fluttering for your Love Strawberry Light Blue Butterfly');
    } else if (command == ('Light Blue Butterfly')){
        message.command.send('Sugie StrawBerry');
    }
});
client.login('NzgwNTA1ODM1NDk0MTc4ODE2.X7wEtA.fy9ssTMv4P7LJFZ26MXGFyNrSGs');
