Love never fails

If you asked me (and Jews always ask) which people groupis the happiest, I would answer by asking, "And what do youthink?" (By the way, Jews always answer a question with aquestion!)Someone might say that Gypsies are the most joyful, as expressed by their wonderful songs and dancing! I would answer, "Perhaps!" Another may argue that Georgian*people arethe happiest. And I would say, "Of course. Everyone knows theGeorgian temperament. It's like the temperament of manyother Caucasian people." Or someone might say it's theRussians when they drink, or the Ukrainians, when they eat apiece of lard with onions and black bread. And I could hardlydisagree with this.But I think that the Jews are the happiest, perhaps becauseof the many troubles in their history and in their attempt tohide their deep sorrow behind a mask of joy. Perhaps theyhave really learned to have joy while walking through the darkest of valleys. Everyone can answer for himself.As for me, I have joy because I, too, am also a Jew, and because I know that the hearts of many of our people (as well asof many others, no matter what nation, culture or cuisine) arefull of HOPE.And this HOPE is YESHUA.
