InspirationShufon the young owl was not born the same as everyone else – he sees the world upside down and back to front. When the “reading gala” was coming up, his parents were concerned that their son, who reads from end to start, will fail. But thanks to the wisdom of one elderly owl, the opportunity to turn diversity into an advantage emerged, allowing everyone to enjoy the variety of perspectives found in a single community.
Each of us has aspects and virtues that others do not have, and we all need one another
(Rabbi Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi, Likutei Torah, Nitzavim)
