Reinvention

A caterpillar crawls so slow
Paces from mask to mask
Staying current on the new look
Staying busy on unfinished tasks
It chews life out of the garden
Wastes away to satisfy the need

It's content with what should've been
Never lives into what it should be
Lives a life of reinvention

Hey Joel! it was great reading up on how you've been, I admire you... perservering through those q.'s in your 23 hrs of flying and layovers and staying so hopeful and keeping your sense of humor through the emotion overload of returning and enduring the stomach crud in your first week. I know that as such a sure, deliberate force from outside, you'll be a catalys for beauty, love and change in Arequipa, Joel. I can't wait to read how your reaction to it all and how it, in turn, changes you, big guy! My love and prayers! r.
