The (dried) Fig

On Easter you can see many pilgrims in Jerusalem. One of the prominent groups among them are the ones from Ethiopia: They are, often, very old, dressed in white, bending on their long walking stick, and walking in a group.

 

I often ask myself what it means for such a lady to visit the Holy Land? What does it require from her? What does she tell, and to whom, when she returns home?
