This document traces the history and evolution of the song "This Land Is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie from its earliest published version in 1951 through cover versions by Bob Dylan in 1961 and Bruce Springsteen in 1980. It notes how the song changed over time, with Dylan omitting a controversial verse about private property and Springsteen making minor lyrical tweaks. The document serves to illustrate the song becoming iconic over decades as different artists covered and adapted it to live performances.
The document discusses water and its importance to all life on Earth. Water is essential for drinking, cleaning, cooking, living and dying. It plays a key role in many religions and cultures. Water is vital to producing food and sustaining life, yet it is often taken for granted or disrespected. The document emphasizes how water gives life but its neglect can also bring death.
The poet wrote about deciding to move out of their family home to strike out on their own, which led to many hardships. They encountered a hideous creature named Adversity who burdened them with bags of misfortune and hardship, making their journey difficult. Over time, the poet realized that experiencing adversity had taught them invaluable life lessons that they wouldn't have learned otherwise. They concluded that while adversity is difficult, it provides important knowledge and makes the good times more meaningful.
This poem by John Keats describes how beauty in nature can lift the human spirit. It states that a thing of beauty is a joy forever, as its loveliness increases rather than fading. Each day, beauty like the sun, moon, trees, flowers and tales of great men binds us to the earth and lifts our dark spirits, despite hardships like lack of noble role models or gloomy days. The poem finds an endless fountain of immortal drink in nature's beauty that pours from heaven's brink.
A good read for those needing an injection of the Christmas Spirit and drawn to swashbuckling adventure! A touch of Homer's "Odyssey", A dash of Melville's "Moby Dick" and a hint of Hemingway's "Old Man and the Sea"! A compelling Christmas story!
This document summarizes a discussion on vulnerability that took place at Cafechurch on December 3rd. It includes readings from Denise Levertov's poem "Change Gear Primary Wonder" about forgetting and being present to life's mysteries. Brene Brown's talk is summarized, noting that vulnerability is at the core of shame and fear but also joy, creativity, belonging and love.

Later passages discuss how we often try to escape vulnerability and the stories we tell ourselves that diminish our worthiness.
A Christmas Trilogy; Awaiting the Thaw presentationGerald Furnkranz
This document provides a synopsis for a Christmas trilogy titled "Awaiting The Thaw". The trilogy follows a sailor over three Christmases as he returns home from a voyage, only to have his love turn away from him. Wounded, he runs back to sea, embarking on a whaling voyage that takes him to extreme locations around the world. Through his experiences of loss, isolation, friendship in strange places, and rescue missions, the sailor matures and comes to better understand the love he left behind. The synopsis teases themes of Homer's Odyssey, Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, and Melville's Moby Dick within the nautical adventure story.
Lindsey's anthology contains several poems about nature and human experiences:
1) The first poem describes sailing across a bay and basking in the warm sunlight reflecting off the lapping waves.
2) The second poem is about cautiously dipping a toe in the water and putting up walls of protection to guard against possible harm or threats.
3) The third poem calls out to save a place before it's too late, while the herons rule the sky and people below feel helpless, carrying out protests but can only do so much.

The document provides four quotes from Thoreau's "Where I Lived and What I Lived For" and Joan Didion's "Goodbye to All That" about observing and experiencing different landscapes and the city of New York.

This document summarizes the travels of three Western women missionaries - Mildred Cable, Francesca French, and Evangeline French - known as "The Trio", who crossed the Gobi Desert five times between 1923 and 1936. As some of the first Christians in the region since the 6th century, they sought to educate women and spread Christianity. The Trio embraced the hardships of desert travel and drew inspiration from its vast open spaces. They viewed their missionary work as a spiritual journey, likening it to The Pilgrim's Progress. Despite dangers, they demonstrated commitment to their faith by adopting a child during their travels.
The document describes how the color of the speaker's cheeks changes based on different experiences and emotions. Their cheeks turn white upon waking, red when seeing a dream girl, yellow with fever, blue after swimming in the ocean, brown after playing in mud, and so on, taking on colors representing other experiences like sun exposure, cold, hunger, anger and more. In the end, the color disappears entirely when the speaker dies.
The passage describes a day where everything seemed opposite of what is normal. The grass stung instead of feeling pleasant, clouds brought mud instead of rain, the waves produced sugar instead of salty water, eyes oozed blood instead of tears, and more. It depicts a day where the natural order was reversed for all things in nature and aspects of life, leaving the speaker ready to accept death from their Creator rather than experience such a strange and unnatural day further.
I met a sorrowful girl in the forest who was weeping. I comforted her, telling her not to dwell on the past and that the present is what matters. The darkness people see as light, and the sunshine they see as night. I asked her to stop crying and pray instead. The girl and I then walked through the woods arm-in-arm as friends, talking and enjoying each other's company despite the rain.
The song expresses that no matter where the singer travels with their partner, from "Kyoto to The Bay", as long as they are together there is no place they would rather be.

His cheeks are compared to snow on a mountain, his eyes to the ocean, and his hair to soft silk in the heavens. His smile is enchanting like moonlight, his skin is flawless like mother's milk. In the end, his heart is described as omnipresent like an almighty god, worshipped by all though he is just a tiny child.
Mike Link discusses the role of risk in wilderness experiences. He recalls conversations with his son about accepting risk as part of enjoying wilderness areas. While his son later died in a kayaking accident, Link believes risk is an inevitable and necessary part of experiencing wilderness. He argues that wilderness areas need to allow for getting lost and facing dangers in order to provide meaningful experiences that allow people to challenge themselves, discover independence, and respect life. Removing risk would remove important qualities that help people understand themselves and nature.

George M. Cohan
You're a grand old flag,
You're a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You're the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Ev'ry heart beats true
'neath the Red, White and Blue,
Where there's never a boast or brag.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.

Oh say can you see And the rockets red glare
By the dawn’s early light The bombs bursting in air
What so proudly we hailed Gave proof through the light
At the twilight’s last gleaming That our flag was still there
Whose brought stripes and Oh say does that star
bright stars spangled
Through the perilous fight Banner yet wave
For the ramparts we watched For the land of the free
We’re so gallantly streaming And the home of the brave

I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me
