OT: Tuesday Night Humor - The Power of Prayer
A journalist assigned to the news bureau in Jerusalem has an apartment
overlooking the Western Wall. Every day when she looks out, she sees an
old bearded Jewish man praying vigorously. Certain he would be a good
interview subject, the journalist goes down to the Wall, and introduces
herself to the old man.
"You come every day to the Wall", she says. "How long have you done that
and what are you praying for?"
"I have come here to pray every day for 25 years," replies the old man.
"In the morning I pray for world peace and for the brotherhood of man.
I go home have a cup of tea, and I come back and pray for the
eradication of illness and disease from the earth. And very, very
important, I pray for peace and understanding between the Israelis and
Palestinians."
The journalist is impressed. "You've come here every day for 25 years
and prayed for all these wonderful things!" she says. "How does that
make you feel?"
Says the old man: "Like I'm talking to a f*cking wall."
