“No matter what our particular job, especially in our world today, we all are called to be tikkun olam, repairers of creation. Thank you for whatever you do, wherever you are, to bring joy and life and hope and faith and pardon and love to your neighbor and to yourself.”Mister Rogers If you get a chance to check out the documentary "Won't You Be My Neighbour?", do so!
