『羅生門』 第五話　芥川龍之介・著
'Rashomon' #5
Written by Ryunosuke Akutagawa

申の刻下がりから 降り出した雨は、
いまだにあがるけしきがない。
そこで、下人は、何をおいても差し当り
明日の暮しをどうにかしようとして――
いわばどうにもならない事を、どうにかしようとして、
とりとめもない考えをたどりながら、
さっきから朱雀大路にふる雨の音を、
聞くともなく聞いていたのである。
雨は、羅生門をつつんで、遠くから
ざあっという音を 集めてくる。
夕闇は次第に空を低くして、見上げると、
門の屋根が、斜めに突き出した甍の先に、
重たく薄暗い雲を支ている。

The ability to learn and adapt is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity.  This is where the concept of continuous learning comes in.  Continuous learning is the ongoing pursuit of knowledge and skills to enhance both personal and professional development. 

It's a commitment to staying abreast of industry trends, acquiring new skillsets, and fostering a growth mindset that propels individuals and organizations forward.
