Simple exchanges can break walls between us, for when people come together and speak to one another and share a common experience, then their common humanity is revealed.  We are reminded that we're joined together by our pursuit of a life that's productive and purposeful, and when that happens mistrust begins to fade and our smaller differences no longer overshadow the things that we share.  And that's were progress begins.
