"We build too many walls and not enough bridges."  

                                              ~ Isaac Newton    

Let's be bridge builders today.

Watch for ways to cross caverns 
and connect islands.

See every encounter as an opportunity to repair weak links and construct bonds.  

Use smiles, eye contact, warm handshakes, respectful attention, and cordial conversation. Listen in order to understand. Show respect and empathy. 

We each have the tools to repair what seems broken and to span gulfs among us.

Aim to make beauty.

With love and compassion,
Charlene
