The deepest question any of us can ask is, who am I?

To answer it, we have to go deeper than where do I live, or what do I do?

The most fateful moment in my life came when I asked myself that question and knew the answer had to be, I am a Jew.

To me, what it is to be a Jew in the world had to be, I am a Jew.

To me, what it is to be a Jew in the world is to walk with pride but never arrogance.

To feel a sense of thanks to God for our faith without ever denigrating anyone else's faith. As I put it to be a Jew is to be a true,

true to your faith and a blessing to others,

regardless of their faith.

And I would look at Judaism in the 21st century and say,

without being blind to any of the dangers and any of the risks,

now is the greatest moment to be a Jew that we

have ever known. So don't let's blow it this time. Let us go out there full of confidence and live

our Judaism and share some of its wisdom with whoever turns to us for advice.
