I have Kotel as a background because it means a lot to me that we have been attacked several times, but each time we have stood up for ourselves and crushed our opponents. The wall still stands even though many people have tried to break it. I think it symbolizes how strong we are. There is a Star of David in the middle with light radiating from it because I am proud to be Jewish and think others should be. The doves of peace are holding the ribbon that it says Israel 77 on it because I long for times when Israel is at peace. Israel shapes my jewish story by being there. I have always felt that Israel is like a "sanctuary" for Jews, where you can be yourself without having to hide that you are a Jew. That you are supposed to be yourself and be a proud jew. I looked at some of the primary sources, but I did not find any that I took inspiration from.
