Fascinating! <BR/><BR/>(I even printed a copy and stuck it my "November" folder, for something to mention next Thanksgiving! <BR/><BR/>How appropriate, as it shows how little we realize how many people to whom we owe much gratitude, and how much we take for granted.)Juggling Frogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572259373523756647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7898782635470765614.post-5375635680877018572008-04-07T06:43:00.000-04:002008-04-07T06:43:00.000-04:00May his (and your) merits only increase!While it i...May his (and your) merits only increase!<BR/><BR/>While it is important that the kids know about their yichus and the (often extraordinary) deeds of their grandparents, I always tell them that "nachas is more important than yichus." <BR/><BR/>(I.e. the joy they give their parents and grandparents is what they should concentrate on, not the honor bestowed upon them by the deeds of others.)<BR/><BR/>Or, in other words, I tell them: Knowing where you came from *is* important, but not nearly as useful as knowing where you're going.Juggling Frogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572259373523756647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7898782635470765614.post-24089380768047920532008-04-03T16:52:00.000-04:002008-04-03T16:52:00.000-04:00Thanks Jack, but the day I think I'm a hero is the...Thanks Jack, but the day I think I'm a hero is the day I'm in <I>real</I> trouble...The Rebbetzin's Husbandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14977193945074906534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7898782635470765614.post-59632856573170086022008-04-03T01:02:00.000-04:002008-04-03T01:02:00.000-04:00then there’s a potential hero in me as well.Who sa...<I>then there’s a potential hero in me as well.</I><BR/><BR/>Who says that you aren't already a hero.Jack Steinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16625864271071630940noreply@blogger.com
