There are moments of "anguish" in raising children, but also, God willing, many moments of nachas and joy. No manuals exist for every situation and each child is unique. Nevertheless, we hope and pray that our children and grandchildren embody the values of menschlichkeit and commitment to Torah, God, Israel and humanity. We guide them to realize their Divine potential and be their very best. As Yaakov nears the end of his life, he blesses each one of his children. However, his words convey a timeless instructive for life. Rather than simply offer them all words of encouragement, he tempers his words with criticism. He understands that he is not their friend, but their parent. In the younger years, a parent is tasked with educating a child, mustering the courage to say "no" and simultaneously raising a child to make responsible choices as an adult. Of course, as a child grows in independence, the relationship between parent and child evolves. This past week was my grandmother's unveiling. In reflecting on her life, I remarked that she was able to embody the ideal of balancing love and restraint. She developed a relationship with each of her grandchildren, her "greats" as she would call them, her children, their spouses, her nieces and nephews, and her cousins. She was and is the matriarch of our family, who brought us all together and, together with my grandfathers, always made the effort to be part of our lives. However, her love was tempered by her honesty and frankness, her gevurah, her strength. She let everyone know how she felt to guide us and motivate us to be our very best. She offered helpful advice because she wanted us to improve - out of love. As a parent and grandparent, she embodied the attribute of Tiferet - splendor, the attribute associated with Yaakov. She possessed a soul infused with love, kindness, and generosity, balanced with strength, tenacity, determination, spunk and honesty. In our generation, the challenge as parents and grandparents is great. We live in an age of entitlement. Yet, the Torah approach is exactly the opposite. It is our role to cultivate gratitude, humility and morality in our youth. May God grant us the wisdom and courage to balance our love with restraint, to lead by example and God willing, merit generations of children who will be a source of blessing to our families, the Jewish people and the world. Wishing you and your families a Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Daniel Cohen Halachic Living Will This Shabbat, we read in the Torah about the death and burial of our forefather Yaakov. As we read this portion, we join hundreds of congregations around the country in focusing our attention to issues concerning the end of life planning that affect each and every family. At CAS, we will use this opportunity to raise communal and individual awareness about the importance of a Halachic Living Will. I will be away this Shabbat but Rabbi Zweiter will address the topic on Shabbat morning. For an introduction to the Halachic Living Will, see- www.rabbis.org/pdfs/hcpi.pdf and visit teamshabbos.org/ Service Notes - Sephardic Minyan will be held this Shabbat, 9 AM in the Social Hall.
