The Ethical Will – Creating a Legacy of Value
In medieval times, Jewish men wrote letters to their sons passing on guidelines for living a worthy life. These legacy documents, called “ethical wills,” provided meaningful and enduring communication between generations. Nowadays, people of all ages and faiths are rediscovering this beautiful and sensible tool for passing on the substance of a person’s emotional life, including his or her accomplishments, failures, inspirations, fears, lessons learned, and hopes for the future. Join in the interactive discussion on how to organize and write, personalize and strengthen, your legacy of love. Sponsored by Ivy Tech-Columbus.
