A man told me that he was at the airport, and he had his tallis and tefillin in his carry on. “I had to go to the men’s room, so I left my carry on outside the men’s room, because I didn’t want to take my kedusha items in there. Then it occurred to me, that my neshama is kedusha, and if I don’t take my tallis and tefillin into the bathroom, how can I take my holy neshama into an indecent place? Sure, I take my neshama into the bathroom because that’s how G-d created me, so He wants me to do it. But he doesn’t want me to take the holy neshama into the cesspool of the internet. Because the neshama is part of G-d Himself, it’s the worst insult to G-d to take it into immoral places.”
