inspirationNevo Ziv brings us the story of Arie Ben Naim, a little boy who does not like his name. luckily for Arie, and the readers, Grandpa Arie comes to visit, and tells young Arie about all the Aries that came before him, opening the door to past generations. Little Arie soon discovers that he is part of a family that shares a centuries-long story, in which he himself is a fresh, young chapter.
Arie Ben Naim XXIV urges readers to get to know their own family histories: every person is a story, and every family has one of its own. In it, there is glory and courage, goofiness and difficulty, laughter and comfort. Family stories offer wisdom, experience, and a smile. They provide us with a sense of belonging, encouraging the younger generation, and giving them meaning. It will all become clear to us as we turn to the older members of the family and ask them, as the verse suggests:
Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will declare to you, your elders, and they will tell you. [Deuteronomy, 32:7]
Which memories do your grandparents have of previous generations? And what will be the family stories you, as parents, can tell your children? This is an age-old question, but a new one too. Family stories await in every home and family.
