This wasn't my first visit to Kikar Rabin but it was definitely the most meaningful and was in fact one of the most meaningful moments I have had in Israel thus far. The aura at Kikar Rabin was so different than ever before — there was a sense of sadness, mirrored by a sense of hope. The moment that touched me most was when I overheard a mother talking to her two young sons, "הוא רצה שכולם יהיו חברים" — He wanted everyone to be friends, she told them.
