hi I'm Ellie stefanski and I'd like to
share with you a very personal story
we moved Heritage straw and as soon as
we got to or this row we had a personal
family crisis which took me out of
learning for literally two years there
were days upon days which I didn't even
open up a safer on March 13 2016 I heard
that the fioimi is starting misakis and
I said to myself enough with the excuses
let's get back into the daf let's start
it up let's go so after dropping off my
children right here in school I looked
over and I see this measures
I said this is a gavalica place to start
that feeling
I walked into the basement and I
couldn't believe my eyes
talking and learning
stagging away and there's almost not a
seat to be found so I went up and down
the aisles until I found the seat and I
opened up my service is
right back to the Yeshiva days and so I
came back for another day and another
day I all of a sudden realized out of
the 150 people sitting in the basement
only 10 people were learning that fyami
and I happened to sit directly in the
center of that
I turned to the fellow next to me and I
asked him a question which I thought was
a bomb question in milliseconds he
answered it just like that and I said
wow you're right so I went back to the
drawing board I thought okay let me come
up with something bigger and stronger
and so I turned them and I say hey what
about this and once again brushes it off
after a few days I realized that this
fellow next to me is a huge huge diamond
Clapham and I have a lot to learn from
them so I asked them you have time to
learn with me maybe without hesitation
he said sure let's learn and so for the
past almost seven and a half years we
hardly missed the day that day
March 13 2016 is the day
that my life made of 180.
I realized that an hour a day wasn't
going to cut it so I added 20 minutes
and after a few weeks I saw that wasn't
enough so I had another 20 minutes
eventually I was learning full time with
encouragement of my unbelievable habrusa
ready if you did a Kramer I started
giving a sheer a synopsis of all seven
daf of that week on Thursday nights and
after a few years I started giving the
sheer that which is today America's
definitely we started off
and the rest is history
thank you
I'm just a regular typical balabas
consistency has changed the trajectory
of my life if I can do it I promise you
you can do it as well in just a few days
starting all over again it's one of
everybody's favorite shots please I
encourage you to join us you'll get a
free gamara you'll get a new life
starting now
