Be there

The Lord said to Moses: Ascend to Me on the mountain, and be there (Exodus 24:12): Why the double command that appears to be redundant, both to ascend, and to be on the mountaintop? The Kotzker taught that "one who ascends to the top stands on the mountain, although that climber's head might be in another place. The essential thing is not the ascent, but to be there, and only there." -Kotzker Rebbe

Be there.  Wherever you are.

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
