As my children and I stood gazing dreamily out our living room window during this cold Canadian winter, I contemplated our long and icy galut (exile). I thought about the warm intersperses of spring air which sent a new energy pulsating through our veins but a few years ago, invigorating us with renewed hope.

"Uh, I believe that there will come a certain time when there will be a redemption, but I don't believe that it will come about through a Messiah, a single person, who will rule over the whole world and everyone will be in awe and fear of him. Such a thing is not within the realm of rational possibility; so I can't accept it."

The past hundred years, even more so the past fifty, and most of all the past ten, have created a burning need for people who can provide points of convergence.

The are two states of existence, two ways to be. You can be striving, or at rest. Fighting, or at peace. Estranged, or betrothed. Yearning, or satisfied. On the road, or at home. |
