When people whom I haven’t seen for a long time say to me, “You haven’t changed a bit!” I do not take that as a compliment. If I am not better today than I was ten or twenty years ago, then I have definitely missed many opportunities. That is true both in my personal life and in my professional life. I certainly hope that I am a better person, a better parent, a better child, a better spouse, a better student of Torah, and a better teacher than I was a decade ago.
