C O M M U N I T Y

You see, community is relationship in all its glory, 
sharing laughter, hurt and hearing stories,
It's about walking together and showing you care,
Helping someone to realise you'll always be there,
It's about building authentic relations with a span of ages,
Not just sticking with your own generation,
It's learning to receive wisdom from the old, and helping the young in dismantling the mould,
Society and culture creates this expectation of how we should be,
Telling the old to dislike the young, when once they were just like me,
We have to abolish this system that chooses popularity over friends,
And realise that relationship and vulnerability mends,
Community is about being real and open, 
Showing scars and being broken,
Joining to do life together as one,
Just like where it all began, 
The Trinity,
Father, Spirit, Son.
