Small Moves, Radical Changes | A Tu B'Shevat Lesson

Today is the 15th of Shevat - Tu B'Shevat, the New Year for Trees. While we celebrate trees and their fruits, this holiday has a lot to do with us humans. The Torah compares a human being to a tree: "Man is like a tree of the field." When a seed is first planted, every small act of care matters. Even what seems insignificant can shape how the tree will grow for years to come. The same is true with children. A short moment of attention, a small effort that feels barely noticeable, can later shape a child’s values and daily behavior in significant ways. That’s why no effort in education is ever wasted. What’s at stake isn’t a single moment, but the long-term growth of the person who will emerge. FOLLOW @JewishMedia for more authentic Jewish wisdom from the Lubavitcher Rebbe.
