yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom;
seek learning, even by study and also by faith."

Every Stranger You Meet

"Our purpose in life is spiritual transformation, and every encounter with a stranger is an opportunity to draw closer to that purpose.  Every human being is a universe, and, like all universes, every person is still in the process of creation.  When we come into someone's life, we enter an alternate world, and by entering it we change it....When you cross paths with a stranger, a new dimension comes into being, one in which both of you reside.  Every interaction with a new person is an opportunity to transform both your life and theirs.  This is an immense opportunity, if only we choose to recognize and take advantage of it.  Every encounter with a stranger is a chance to start over."

Rav P. S. Berg
The Essential Zohar
