In Jerusalem, a 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 went to the Wailing Wall to check it out, 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 Reuters. Sir, how long have you been coming to the
Wall and praying?"
"For about 60 years."
"60 years! That's amazing! What do you pray for?"
"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."
"Sir, how do you feel after doing this for 60 years?"
"Like I'm talking to a freaking wall."
