Social interactions
"And Jacob said to them, “My brethren, where are you from?” And they said, “We are from Haran.” Genesis 29:4.
"Then he said, “Look, it is still high day; it is not time for the cattle to be gathered together. Water the sheep, and go and feed them. ” 29:9.

A man's interaction has a direct effect on what and what will happen to him and his journey of life. On his way to Haran, Laban's abode, Jacob met certain men who were shepherds near a well.
