New Beginnings

   As our country wipes her slate clean and attempts to start anew with fresh ideas, so do we in Young Judaea.  As the President said, "everywhere we look, there is work to be done."  This is correct on many counts, and holds true to our own beloved movement. 

   I'll leave you with a quote from the inaugural address of the 44th President of the United States: "All of this we can do; all of this we will do.  There are some who question the scale of our ambitions...they have forgotten what [we] have already done.  What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them."

   May we in Yehuda Ha'Tzair be empowered by witnessing such a revolutionary event and hearing such inspiring words.

   "With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents and endure what storms may come..."
