COMMUNITY'S WINS

4/5/2018

1 Comment

 
Thoughts from 2017-18 corps member Kevin Rysted. 
Begin Reflection Log: 31st minute of the 22nd hour of the 3rd day of the 4th month of the 19th year of the 1st century of the 3rd millennia of the Common Era.

"I feel that I am less productive on a day-to-day basis while in St. Louis.  I feel my own need for outward accountability starting to manifest more seriously.  I hope that God takes this moment to act because I will not resist change much longer.  I could feel myself returning to my beloved self as I returned to Oklahoma over Spring Break--it is tough to love and accept yourself when your better self is so close by.  Here is my attempt at a poem that expresses community's wins:

        fear of rough water
brine and wave have damage shown
     storm gives sights anew


Let it be known that this poem of my month is for outward digestion by my lovely audience as well as for inward digestion for my spiritual health."

End Reflection Log: 14th minute of the 23rd hour of the 3rd day of the 4th month of the 19th year of the 1st century of the 3rd millennia of the Common Era.
