The Humbling River
Against its might, as individuals, we are helpless to this river. It's a constant current, we must work quickly; build a stable foundation to cross.
2 persons may build a raft, but this will not withstand the rage of the river.
23 people could build a boat sturdy enough to cross, but they would
not have enough storage for food.
46 people can built a boat fit to carry food. 23 will be left behind.
69 people can create the boat that carries its entire people, food, water
and supplies across to the other side
.
.
69, is the representation the ever outward spiraling yin and yang.
Imagine if 7 billion people could find a way to help one another. Food,
education, and clothes not a single person excluded.
We could explore other planets, solar systems,
reaching out to the galaxy.
This is a poem written by a young street-dependent client, Matthew Hudgins, and shared with you by permission. Matt has a 16-page draft of a children's book he hopes to finishing editing, illustrate and publish one day soon. Enjoy!
"To know, love and serve street dependent youth."
