Summary/Abstract: Borders may have different meanings, discussed and applied in different situations. One has focused on geographical or political boundaries, another on the biological limits of cell. Laws are also borders that express accepted by the society norms of behavior. Other limits are more abstract, such as social, interpersonal, mental or spiritual. We define and outline borders and they can divide or unite, to build or destroy, to help or hurt. The differentiation between physical (real) and abstract (undetectable) entities is an essential aspect of the boundaries definitions.
