Q: Source for "everyone has a specific area of Torah that they're naturally drawn to"

While we have to learn the entire Torah, I remember once learning that "everyone has a specific area of Torah that they're specifically drawn to/ naturally comes easier to them" (for example: monetary laws, Hilchos Sukkah, Yoreh Deah etc). Is there a source for where this idea can be found?

Is there a site others have used to upload content they want to link to in a message? Someplace that helps conserve content over long periods over time - to avoid dead links

@IsaacMoses Great. Thanks a lot. Seems to work fine and to be what I am looking for. Re copyright, what I have doesn't have mention of it, but in any case I am making the upload private, so only those with the link will see it

Hmmmm. After I composed my post, uploaded, etc. I see DoubleAA posted a comment to a question with similar content - so deleted mine. Will remember ScribD for the future though

I'd like to begin learning Ramban Al HaTorah and was wondering if someone has had experience with learning Ramban using a certain set of Chumash. I know of three different sets that have biurim/notes and was wondering what the differences are between them and which anyone has found to be the most...
