The Creator of the world has merited me to be among those who sit in the beis midrash, and to bring out a work on a subject that is very burning among the public. I exert myself greatly to write in a clear manner and to bring the matters close to practical halacha according to the sources. I was engaged in a certain topic and tried to descend to the understanding of our Rabbis as much as I was able, but I felt that the practical halachic aspect had not become sufficiently clarified for me. A few days afterward, a man called and wanted to meet with me, and the question on his lips was exactly on the topic with which I had already been occupied for several days. I rejoiced with great joy that the matters were fluent in my mouth and that I was able to help him, but more than that I rejoiced over the manner in which he asked the questions; this sharpened my understanding and enabled me to plunge into the depth of the halachah. I felt that HaKadosh Baruch hu had arranged for that man to come to me in order to encourage me and to tell me to continue with my writings!!!
