Jerusalem- My heart aches for you

There are few things that tug harder on my soul than Jerusalem. Words are not adequate, Jerusalem is my true love, the one that I will never live without. There is an attachment, a bond that is not unlike that of child and parent. I am heartbroken and left diminished outside of her walls. In time I will return to drink deeply in the sights and sounds of my city. There is no other place that I can think of that has this kind of impact upon so many. G-d’s touch is upon the stones.

    Jerusalem is almost indescribable. It’s so difficult to put into words the feeling one gets when praying at the Wall or viewing the city from the Mount of Olives.

    Your sentiment was beautiful.
