so heartfelt it digs in to my heart Reply

Eight Defiant candles Burning Eternally Walking down the cold,dark streets of the shetl and seeing the candles in the windows reminding us that the Greeks tried to eliminate Judaism and failed.And the Nazis tried to eliminate Judaism and failed as did the Communists. Eight candles that mean so much burning defiantly throughout Eternity. May our efforts please Hashem.
As these Chanukah candles burn for all to see, I hope my Faith burns and sustains me inwardly. Reply
