Tish'a b'Av: Time to Wake Up: Make the Dream a Reality!

A young boy wakes up on the morning of Tish'a b'Av and discovers the possibility of a better world, one in which the Holy Temple has been reestablished, and peace and happiness fills our lives.

The Hebrew prophet Zechariah said, "So said HaShem of Hosts: The fast of the fourth, the fast of the fifth [month, the 9th of Av], the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be for the house of Yehudah for joy and happiness and for happy holidays-but love truth and peace!"

Challenge yourself to see once again G-d's promise and our own potential through the pure and unspoiled eyes of youth. With just one more Mitzvah we can awaken ourselves from the unreal state of the world today, into a new reality, one filled with G-d's light emanating from His presence in the rebuild Holy Temple in Jerusalem.
