Koinonia: discombobulated
http://hlutjens.blogspot.com/2014/06/discombobulated-worth-it.html
Greek]: fellowship, to communicate, community, communion, association, participation, contribution, distribution, sharing. I don't think this is an actual thing, but the word *looks* like it's definition. or is it me? Like a visual onomatopoeia. L o n g. short and TALL. complicated AND simple. jumbled. This is what I get for not writing in far too long. Maybe it's what paradox does to you when you don't talk about it. So, let's get that out of the way right here. Just to name a few.

They wait and release the year's best movies all at once.which, in my logical, practical mind is not the best of ideas.what are we to do the rest of the year?

It's been two weeks. So far mostly it feels surreal. I've lived most of the last 18 years of my life without interacting with my mom on a day to day basis. it feels like I've just reverted to one of those years. one of those weeks.

Greek]: fellowship, to communicate, community, communion, association, participation, contribution, distribution, sharing. It's been a while.and hope. Five and a half months, to be exact. I last posted 10 days before leaving South Sudan. My oh my. all that's happened since then! It simultaneously seems like eons ago and like yesterday.

http://hlutjens.blogspot.com/2014/06/jumping-fountains.html
Greek]: fellowship, to communicate, community, communion, association, participation, contribution, distribution, sharing. I drove by a scene much like this one this evening.

Have you ever dove head first into something you’d never done before, having absolutely no idea if it was going to work.if you were going to be any good at it.if people were going to “get it”?
