[Music] Shalom to the entire Nitsar family. I want to share with you a story, a very powerful story that can be a gamecher if we allow the lesson to come in. So there's a man who lives in Benbra and his wife works for a gun. A gun a kindergarten. It's a special gun for gifted children. She works there to help out each child with what they need. This one has a hard time walking. This one has a hard time eating. Very special children. Anyways, there's one kid in this playg group. He's not able to talk properly. He's not able to communicate well. And it makes it very hard since he's not able to share his feelings and, you know, tell the teachers where he's holding. So, of course, it's hard for him to keep up with the rest of the class. But she's working with him and she's dedicated and she really wants to make a difference. For whatever reason, during the year, she had to leave the gun for a month. When she returned, she was shocked to find that after 1 month, this child who was never able to speak, had a very difficult time communicating was speaking almost perfectly. He was able to communicate like never before.
