Xenogeny Janet Kuypers 3/24/19 (written for Lent) Give me this time. After the richness of our foods and our excess drink, wallowing in our wealth with our glutenous indulgencies, please, allow me this time. As days grow longer, I’ll need this time to reflect on myself, to contemplate the world to reach a better understanding and connection. Consider this penance for all I have done, and trust me — I will keep all of my strength as I sacrifice all during these 40 days and 40 nights to focus on what I truly need, and what I truly believe. My soul has been too old to die so young, so this is why I need this time, to reflect, and realize what more I must do to make the world worth celebrating again. Please, I think you have understood that I am so completely different from those around me and those before me. So let me now have this time, so I can piece it all together once and for all. Wait for my return. I believe the reward will be worth the wait. |
