Miracle

It is amazing how when you go beyond your own nature, things just are shown to you that under normal circumstances would never happen...so with my students...I have a student who came six lessons ago who basically was not able to speak without loosing his voice after the second sentence...he had pain and at 19 not being able to communicate is a terrible thing...not that 19 is different from any other time...Well six lessons later, he is not only speaking a thousand percent better, but he has begun actually producing sounds and shows potential for a real beautiful baritonal cantorial voice. You can imagine the excitement, not only him, but his whole family.He has no more pain and does not sound horse. Not that the situation is totally remedied - it will take quite some time before his new way of speaking will become instinctive, but we are on the way. When I took him on, I knew it would not be easy...he is nervous, anxious and has no self confidence....the need is so great...we are working hard and I am certain we will succeed....Thank G-d for the miracle !
