Good morning, Everyone!

Please help me to complete this sentence:

Blessed are the Postcrossers for they shall…

Yes, it’s a riff on the Beatitudes. Let’s be creative, witty, and respectful. I haven’t yet been able to come up with IT yet, although I have a few ideas.

I need this as part of a talk I might be giving next month on Postcrossing to a local historical society. I will post a separate Topic about that talk soon.

Thanks in advance for your help on this.
