“....[T]he night terrors were no match for the glory of waking up to a new day in the Land of Israel. In every conscious moment, Yael was aware that she was living through times that would form the legends and myths of future generations. Just as her generation told and retold the story of the Exodus from Egypt—the event that changed the nature of Israel forever—so would her people hundreds of years from now tell of the end of the Great Exile and the return to this land. The wonder of it touched everything around her, casting a golden glow over even the most mundane events. Nothing seemed impossible, and nothing seemed entirely real.” IsraelRedemptionExodusGeula Book:A Damaged Mirror Source: A Damaged Mirror

And if our reality is only a tiny reflection of a much greater reality, still it is also an essential part. And the same is true of each individual life. Each deed and thought—each word between friends—adds a new thread to a tapestry so vast that we may never be able to step back and see the whole.” GrowthHealingSelf EsteemSelf ImprovementLiving Life To The Fullest Book:A Damaged Mirror: A story of memory and redemption Source: A Damaged Mirror: A story of memory and redemption
