You are sitting in church listening to your Rabbi teach. In the room there are several new and young mothers. Somewhere a baby starts making small noises.

Age Vs. Wisdom
If you know me personally, you know that I'm a "nerd." I'm not a "nerd" in the way that some people are passionate about comic books, video games, or rock bands.
