Shalom and welcome to your daily dose of wisdom.

Our world bombards us with messages, “buy this,” “go there,” “do this.” It’s easy to get caught up and live a reactive life, constantly responding to external pressures.  Pirkei Avot teaches us a more profound way.  “He [Hillel] used to say:  Do not separate yourself from the community, and do not trust in yourself until the day you die.”  We are social creatures, hardwired for connection.  Engage, participate, and contribute to the world around you.   Don’t isolate yourself and try to figure everything out alone.  Seek wisdom from those who came before you and build on their experiences.
