Remember to thank nurses for their wonderful work, especially for their heroic efforts caring for so many in often trying situations during the recent COVID-19 pandemic.
In Mishna 4 of the second chapter of Pirkei Avot, Ethics of the Fathers, we are taught, “Hillel says, Al Tifrosh min hatzuibur, don’t separate yourself from the community.” Nurses are anything but that as they provide care and comfort to an innumerable number of people in need. To learn more and broaden your ethical horizons, print out the second chapter of Ethics of the Fathers this afternoon and join thousands of fellow Jews around the globe who will be enjoying an uplifting experience and inspired discussions this Shabbat.
