are recessions and depressions, wars
and catastrophes, setbacks and disap-
pointments. Yet our response, the
Jewish response, is that of Miriam in
our Midrash. There is no success
without trying. There is no progress
without moving forward. There is no
happiness without hope.
In this year as we celebrate Israel's
50th anniversary, we are really cele-
brating the triumph of hope over
hopelessness. Imagine if Theodore
Herzl had not had the courage to
dream. His response to the bleak
condition in which the Jews found
themselves in Europe was Im tirtzu
ain zo aggadah if you will it, it is
no dream. And when the impossible
dream came true, a state of Israel, a
national homeland for Jews in our
ancient and holy land, the anthem of
that nation was not a proud military
march, but rather a gentle song titled
simply, "Hatikva," the hope.
May this be our personal anthem
as well. ❑
