In Jerusalem, a CNN journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who had been going to the Wailing Wall to pray, twice a day, everyday, for a long, long time. So she decided to investigate. She went to the Wailing Wall, and there he was!
She watched him pray and, after about 45 minutes, when he turned to leave, she approached him for an interview.
“I’m Rebecca Smith from CNN,” she said. “Sir, may I ask you how long have you been coming to the Wall and praying?”
“For about 60 years,” he replied.
“60 years! That’s amazing! What do you pray for?” she asked.
“I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the Muslims. I pray for all the hatred to stop and I pray for all our children to grow up in safety and friendship.”
“And how do you feel after doing this for 60 years?” she asked.
“Like I’m talking to a fucking wall.”
