Goodbye, Jacob, Goodbye

Parshat Vayetze opens with Jacob leaving Be’er Sheva. Everyone feels his absence.

Is there someone who used to live in your neighborhood or went to your school but moved away? How did you feel when they left? Was that person someone who did nice things?

What if you move away? What kind of impression will you leave behind?
