Every person should ask: Why do I exist?
We live in a world with so many
distractions
that it is hard to find time to think.
Life will go by whether we choose to contemplate it or not. When we
have reached old age, we will inevitably gaze back, having the
time to sit
and analyze our lives.
Did I look sincerely for truth and meaning?
Did I fulfill my potential with my talents and abilities?
Did I work to have close and authentic relationships?
What will they say when I'm gone?
Historically, Jews chose
torture and death rather than conversion. Today,
Jews are assimilating
at numbers rivaling the Holocaust.
What is it that generations of Jews felt worth
dying for?
What is it about the Jew that has
captured
the world's attention?
If my children asked me, "Why should I be Jewish?"
What
would I answer?
Judaism contains a world of depth tragically unknown to most of
its people. Thousands of years of the most incredible history lie in our
backyard. We should at least open the door. |
