I did this last year and it really helped me cultivate an attitude of gratitude, which as a Christian is a necessary disposition, for all we have is gift and we are supposed to give it all back.
So on this first day, the feast of All Saints day, I am thankful for the MBOC, the Mystical Body of Christ. Living 1800 miles from your friends and family it is nice to know that especially through the Eucharist, that most holy sacrament, I am not only united to my Lord, but also to all those whom I love even worlds apart. If I can't see them face to face, at least, I can see them in the Eucharist.
