A journalist heard about an old Rabbi who visited the Kotel, the Western Wall, to pray there three time a day, every day for 50 years.
Thinking it was a great story, he traveled to the Kotel, and watched the old man at prayer.

When he finished, the reporter went over to interview the rabbi and asked, “Rabbi, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall to pray?”
“Around 50 years,” the rabbi answered.
“Wow! And what do you pray for?”
“I pray for peace between Jews and Arabs. I pray for an end to hatred and for brotherhood among all the nations.”
“And how do you feel, after doing this for 50 years?” the reporter asked.
The rabbi responded, “Like I’m talking to a wall!”
