Summary of Steve Leder's The Beauty of What Remains
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 I became a rabbi because I wanted to help people, and I felt that being a rabbi was the best way to do that. I grew up in a Jewish ghetto in Minneapolis, and my childhood was filled with Yiddish, sour pickles, bagels, and smoked fish on Sunday mornings.
#2 I was 14 when I was arrested for stealing Bob Dylan albums, and I was sent to a Jewish summer camp in Wisconsin. I was afraid of dying and of death, but I was fortunate enough to have a great mentor in the senior rabbi of my first congregation.
#3 We all die the same way. None of us are making history when we die, and in many ways, all our deaths are the same. We must learn to accept death as a part of life and realize that none of us are making history when we die.
#4 As a rabbi, I knew that reminding people facing something difficult that they have faced difficulties before and found a way through helps them face their current challenges. I was trying my best to be his rabbi and son during what I believed might well be the last back-and-forth of our lives.
