Editor's Note:
As preparations for my wedding were underway, my future wife'sgrandfather fell seriously ill. Every day was a struggle for him.
At the wedding, I joined hands with friends and family in dance.However, as the night moved along, I wondered where my wife's familywas. Yes, I danced with each uncle and with Grandpa, but being on the further side of the dance floor, I hadn't seen much of them.
After our wedding, when the pictures and video finally arrived, Inoticed how my wife's family danced with one another, and withGrandpa—he was celebrating with the family. Their happiness seemedmagical. I learnt, over the few months that I knew him, that Grandpa always rejoiced at an upcoming family celebration.
Meeting someone at their last moments of life has the potential tocreate unpleasant memories. But from Grandpa Mordechai I learned awonderfully positive and priceless lesson—never to miss a familycelebration.
We often read about zealots or extremists whose behavior is negativeor destructive. In this week's Torah reading we read about a differentkind of zealot—one whose behavior saved his nation.
Grandpa, too, was a zealot. He was a zealot for family celebrations.Although I was not privileged to know Grandpa for long, from him Ilearned that I too should be a zealot for good.
