Although my visit to Israel included many unforgettable
moments, my favorite memory was the day I visited the Western Wall. After
walking through Jerusalem, I rounded the corner and saw the Western Wall for
the first time. It was a beautiful view with the Dome of the Rock in the
background, just like I imagined. Throughout my life I have seen numerous
pictures from this spot and heard many stories from friends and family that
visited. But at that very moment when I saw it with my own eyes, I felt an
overwhelming, satisfying and peaceful feeling. After placing my prayer note
into a crevice in the Wall I was able to share this experience with a wonderful
group of women. I am grateful to have such an incredible memory from my trip to
Israel.
