It's something I used to do quite regularly, I just got out of the habit while at YU, and yes that's ironic, I know. They do a great job of getting Torah out amongst the masses, but they don't always make their students want to do it.
I'm your basic FFB who got a little disaffected for a bit and stopped davening except for Shabbos. *shrug* It happens.
Your bio said you go to Touro, we probably know some people in common, I have a few friends there.
Yes we probally do, and I also know what you mean about YU knocking it out of you. I also have friends there (pause for the sigh of a Touro girl being friends with YU guys) Actually I like to call myself a soon to be Stern girl but that is anouther story. Yes I know what you mean also by "it happens" on most mornings the extent of davaning I do is with my students and yelling "Put your figure on the word!" in between Brachas. I always feel better when I do daven though. makes me wonder why I dont. wanna be my davaning cop? ask me everyday if I davened at all, it will make me conssious of it and get me back into it. btw may I ask, what do you do?
I work in a group home for adults with mental illness and drug addiction. It's tiring, and the pay's absolute garbage, but I'm getting a lot out of it.
That is very inspiering, I know somone who does that here as well. It takes a lot, I never could do it, Kalah Kavod again. what was your major in YU for this? Certinly not a sy sims stdent lol.
