[quote=Anonymous]Even before my bar mitzvah 68 years ago, I learned what I still consider an important lesson. It is that it was that the amount of the check or the cost of the gift that was not important. It was the thoughts and wishes, and the friendship and love that was being conveyed that counted. I valued the person who was sharing an important event in my life. I knew that many of my friends, and even some relatives, had very limited resources and their gifts meant just as much as those from the few wealthy wealthy people who attended. For my grandson's bar mitzvah, I gave as much as I could afford as I knew it would be for his future college expenses. I believe that he learned from his parents that there are more important things in life than money, and he is a caring and thoughtful person. [/quote]
