Travel across borders today, in the spirit of connection and fellowship.  Let us never become so insular that we cannot recognize our sisters and brothers living right next door.  They suffer the same doubts and fears as us.  They also have endured, and have wisdom to share, solace to offer.  We are a blessing to each other: may today celebrate that reality.  For neighbors both near and far we give thanks.  Blessed Be, and Amen.
