The news about the families moving to the newly created Shlomit community, less than one kilometer from the border with Egypt made my day. And this quote of the community secretary: "The army should be the one concerned about safety – that's its duty; our duty is to establish a vibrant community".
This was my lesson learned for today, part of my daily study during Elul and one of the reasons I love this country and its people. People who aren't afraid and who don't give up fight because they know the price of giving up fighting.
The original form of the name Shlomit is Salomé, derived from Shalom - peace.
