Brooklyn
Greetings and blessings,
I am responding to your letter of 14 MarCheshvan*.
After taking note of all the explanations you give me, I think that you should devote this year to the study of the Torah*, devoting yourself to it with ardor and enthusiasm. If you make the effort, I hope that you will find a study partner.
Of course, I am not seeking someone else's good, but your own. If you study during this year with the necessary concentration, we will be able to consider, at the end of the year, the questions you raise at the end of your letter.
It is equally evident that there is no reason to question your abilities or to consider that study is foreign to you. Indeed, there is solely a question of motivation here. One must learn the Torah* without worries, without asking other questions, for "Hashem made everything come in its time" (Koheles* 3:11).
In this way, I am convinced that when the time comes, you will be able to organize yourself and make use of your own abilities, for your satisfaction, materially and spiritually.
With my blessing,
On behalf of the Rebbe, shlita*,
