No Room at the Inn - And That's a Good Thing

Florida has a tourist based economy - and, like most every other place, we're suffering.

But in Bethlehem things are hopping. They're having a great Christmas season. Hotels are full, restaurants are full and businesses are expanding, creating 12,000 new jobs in the city.

Israeli and Palestine forces are working together to make this happen. It's interesting how the economy can sometimes help us see that we need each other.

I was once in Bethlehem during the Christmas season. It was quite a moving and spiritual experience, especially the Church of the Nativity.

Thinking about Bethlehem and what happened there makes me Deliriously Hopeful.
