Never Despair

 At the end of the 18th century, in midst of persecution and impoverishment, Rabbi Nachman of Bratzlav, one of Judaism's most profound philosophers, cried out:

"Jews! Never despair!

But why should Jews not despair, when their history is so drenched in blood and tears?

Because miracles -- hard facts that remain wondrous and incredible  -- are always possible.

But how do  miracles become possible?

We make them possible."

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
