Back from Israel. Amazing journey of a lifetime. So many things to capture that cannot be fully expressed in photos or words. Praying that the memories will not too quickly fade.
Even in the places of trama and toil with barrenness of land, there is a vibrancy of life that springs out of the most hidden of places. A beauty that cannot be described, only relished for what it truly is.
There is beauty in peace. Why do so many want to destroy that peace and that beauty? Why take away the essence of what is life and love? Hope is the springboard for the future. We can hope for understanding and tolerance. We can hope for love to prevail. We can hope that there will be enough tomorrows to reshape the world that exists there.
Shalom. More than a greeting. It's a prayer.
