What would you say in it?

I was thinking of writing wisdom books:
- 1 for my father 
- 1 for my mother
- 1 for my cousin 
- 1 for my friend
- 1 for an atheist I know 

I think rabbi Sacs wrote a book as a wedding gift for his children

This is a great idea IMHO.  In a wisdom book one incorporates personal life lessons with personal illustrations using the many modes of expression at their command.  It means even more when the book is addressed to a specific individual or a people.   If it is cherished by the recipient it is destined to become a family heirloom passed down through generations like a sacred text.

That's a great idea, a combination of philosophy and personal testimony. 


Thanks
