"Have you ever really looked at the Holy Wall?  It seems to be made out of big, weathered stones. But the stones of the Kotel are actually made out of tears, the tears of our fathers and mothers, our grandmothers and grandfathers, of every Yid who ever cried in pain. And if you look very, very closely, maybe you'll see that in those holy stones are six million little tears...

But you know, there is a prophecy. The Master of the world promises to wipe away all our tears. And if you listen very carefully, while you look at the Holly Wall, maybe you will hear the stones of the Kotel singing.  Maybe you'll hear those holy tears reminding us that G-d will not forget His promises. He will bring comfort to His people with the coming of the Mashiach, may it be soon in our days..."
