Seeing a Hanukkiah and a dreidel glowing in the heart of a Christmas holiday lights festival stopped me in my tracks.

So far from Israel. In a world where Jewish people are being hunted in the streets. After days of feeling shattered, angry, and unmoored.

And then—there they were.

Two ancient symbols calling to my heart and soul, reminding me who we are.

I felt the cry of resilience echo through our entire story. A people who rise. A people who endure. A people held together by faith, memory, and community.

In that moment, I felt the earth beneath my feet again. The darkness loosened its grip. The light returned.

This is what community does in the face of evil and hate. This is how despair becomes eternal light.
