Wise Old Jewish Man
A female CNN journalist heard about a very old
Jewish man who had been going to the Western Wall to
pray, twice a day, every day, for a long, long time.
So she went to check it out. She went to the
Western Wall and there he was, walking slowly up to
the holy site.
She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes,
when he turned to leave, using a cane and moving very
slowly, she approached him for an interview.
"Pardon me, sir, I'm Rebecca Smith from CNN.
What's your name?
"Morris Fishbien," he replied.
"Sir, how long have you been coming to the
Western Wall and praying?"
"For about 60 years."
"60 yea rs! That's amazing! What do you pray
for?"
"I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews
and the Muslims."
"I pray for all the wars and all the hatred to
stop."
"I pray for all our children to grow up safely
as responsible adults, and to love their fellow man."
"How do you feel after doing this for 60
years?"
"Like I'm talking to a fucking' wall."
