Description

One day, a girl was frustrated because somebody had shoved her on the subway. Another day, she was frustrated because another girl said something rude to her at school. Both times, the girl didn’t say anything to the person who frustrated her—and in this, her parents found an important lesson. Rabbi Leora Kaye retells the story. A written version of this story can be found in Stories for Public Speakers by Morris Mandel.

Judaism has a deep and rich tradition of storytelling, passing down stories from one generation to the next. To carry on that tradition, Stories We Tell from ReformJudaism.org will share a new story with you every Thursday. Whether you listen while driving to work, preparing Shabbat dinner, or taking your kids to school, each episode will give you a new story to reflect on and discuss with the people in your life. Stories We Tell is a project of the Union for Reform Judaism, a leading voice in the discussion of modern Jewish life.
