Think:
The name Jew comes from the Hebrew name Judah, Yehudah. Contained within the name Yehudah is the word Hoda’ah, to give thanks. The act of giving thanks is to acknowledge our inner oneness, to get in touch with that core essential spark of G-dliness within us. We sublimate the dross crassness of the world, stripping away the ego and finding the inner voice of thanks within. That is what it means to be a Jew, to find humility and see the joy and G-dliness in all things.
That is, after all, our identity.
