Welcome to our discussion today, where we reflect on a timeless lesson from Pirkei Avot. The text teaches us, "Who is wise? One who learns from every person." This principle highlights the importance of humility and openness in our daily interactions.

In our fast-paced lives, it’s easy to dismiss others based on their age, background, or experience. Yet, wisdom can be found in the most unexpected places. By cultivating a mindset of learning, we not only enrich our own lives but also foster deeper connections with those around us.

Imagine a day at work or in your community. Instead of assuming you have all the answers, consider the insights of your colleagues, the stories of your elders, or even the fresh perspectives of youth. Each person has a unique gift to offer.

Let this guiding principle inspire you to engage with others, listen actively, and learn continuously. Embrace the wisdom around you, and you’ll find that every interaction is an opportunity for growth.
