Lessons from the Holy Land
MEJDI co-founder, Aziz Abu Sarah’s recent interview with National Geographic:
There’s a great poem by an Israeli, Yehuda Amichai, called “Tourists.” To paraphrase, he says he was standing next to a gate when a tour guide said, “See that man? Above him is a Roman arch that is 2,000 years old.” Amichai explains that his wish is for a guide to say, “See that Roman arch? The man standing under it is what matters.”
