Windshield or Rearview Mirror?

We look at two perspectives on Jewish identity. What is the difference between being Jewish "in spite of" and being Jewish "because of"? What is the difference between mourning and yearning? And why does Jewish identity, like a car, need to have both a "windshield" and a "rearview mirror"?

Based on Shabbos Chazon, Tisha B'Av Nidche, 5748, Hisva'aduyos pp. 114-121.
