Shanti and Kristen are at their layover checkpoint in Boston. They have come this far. Their endurance and passion are gifts that even lack of sleep cannot damage not destroy. In addition to their carry-ons and single checked bags, they carry the weight of a bum knee (Kristen :), unfinished to-do lists on post-it's galore, forgotten hairbrushes and abandoned water bottles, and the frequent furrowed brow that says: "how?..."

So how do we bear this weight?

...with grace. With hope. With optimism and drive. With a love and concern for people. This outward focus lessens any weight. Aaah, truth. Here we come.
