There is a Jewish tradition of leaving a legacy document.
This 'ethical will' does not deal in financial or property matters, but rather it is the gift of wisdom and good wishes. It tells others what we stand for and what we think is important. It can also offer guidance to the recipient.
Once the ethical will is written, it can often also shape the life of the writer, because it helps to clarify values and morals.
What would you write in your ethical will? What are your words of wisdom to share with the next generation?
