    I’m giving a speech in the next day or two, the theme: sacrificing one’s own Ruchnius for the sake of others’ spiritual growth.

    I have the Dvar Torah sorted, but does anyone know of an inspirational/entertaining story to back this up? e.g. how someone gave up their own Torah for someone else, but in the end it worked out well…?

    Many thanks,

    Leyzer

    NB.

    You dont need to type up the story verbatim, you can just provide me the book name etc and I can look it up myself.

    See the Wikipedia page for the great Rabbi Ezra Attiya regarding the lengths he would go to help keep his top students in yeshiva. One of those students was Rabbi Ovadia Yosef z’tz’l.

    Why don’t you relate about me, Little Froggie, who gives up from his precious time just to help others here grow spiritually…

    In all fairness, LF, we don’t know yet whether the CR proletariat has actually grown as a result of your sacrifice.
