Today was a good day...
It’s amazing. You can hear stories all you want, and you can read the news until the end of time, but nothing will ever compare with simply being there. Today I walked down the banks of the Jilaboon river. Today I hiked through the Golan Heights. Today I walked through a river that my people have been walking through since the time of Moses. Today I saw a minefield. Today I stood on a watchtower that once belonged to Syria. Today I looked over the Sea of Galilee. Today I saw the borders, with no fences or tanks, between countries that have been at war. Today I saw the graves of the pioneers of Israel. Today I began to feel like we were becoming a family. Today was a good day, and I can’t wait for tomorrow.
