Have you ever held a resurrection plant? Perhaps you know it as a dinosaur plant? Or a Rose of Jericho? We have a small version of it at home – bought in a desert shop in Israel. A shriveled up flower on a rock. It can stay that way for years. But here comes the miracle. Add a few drops of water…4 hours later – a beautiful flower is in full bloom. You can get them online. Unless attached to something, they are blown about in the wind in the desert - a type of tumbleweed (though they are not dead - it's complicated). They look dead though. The Jewish nation in exile. They have also looked dead from time to time. A little bit of water, life, Torah…and suddenly in the desert of Golus there is a resurgence, a reemergence and a return of the nation. We call that Teshuva. This is the song that the dew sings. The dew revives. It is a blessing. And it sings a song from Hoshea – from the chapter dealing with Teshuva – Return to Hashem O Israel. Yet in this verse, Hashem says that He will stick by us in any case. Wow! Another early example of Unconditional Positive Regard. Lucky us! Maybe it’s time to return the compliment…
