Herzl planted a cypress tree to symbolize his dream for the future of Eretz Yisrael and the birth of a Jewish State in our land. On the anniversary of his passing in the year 1917, the children went to honor Herzl’s memory at his cypress tree and they saw that it was no longer there. Determined to perpetuate his legacy, the children looked around the ground and gathered the cypress cones that were left. The seeds of Herzl’s cypress were sent to every corner of the land, and they were planted on the hills and valleys, in the Galilee and in Judah.

In honor of Tu B’Shevat, just as we celebrate the rebirth of Israel’s trees, so, too, should we celebrate the ongoing rejuvenated spirit that we gain from the people who inspire us. Here is our pick of inspiring Israelis from all walks of life. While they motivate us, we wanted to know what inspires them and their message to the Jewish community around the world. Here’s what they had to say.
