Where I’m From
BY KATHY JANOSKI
I am from our shared history,
Lunch at Current Cuisine and sleep deprivation.
I am from the towering canopies of Glen Helen and the barrenness of McGregor,
Whispering pines in the side yard and the din of uninsulated walls.
I am from sacred space in the footsteps of giants and shiny untrodden linoleum,
Accepting the inevitable, while wishing it away.
I am from Native Americans and Congregationalists,
Mothers practicing what they preach and veterans working their way back.
I am from middle-aged second career seekers and younger life builders,
Talkers and listeners, thinkers and doers.
I am from critical thinking and social justice,
From Coretta, Mark, Stephen Jay and Horace himself.
I am from Rilke's loving the questions and learning to live into the answers.
From Why? And Why Not?
I am from a whirlwind and a cocoon, a buffer and a catapault.
I am from Antioch.

I admit I shared the same shortsightedness for several quarters. But as I delved further into the wide-ranging curriculum […]
