DISCORD for Middle and High School

We invite all Middle and High School students from Omaha and Lincoln to join us for discussion and community through this app.
'Would you rather' questions - Thoughts along our monthly Soul Matters themes - 'Big questions' related to UUism.
Also - a "Pet Page"!!! So much fun.
***Be aware that once joining Discord, it opens up the app to multiple pages which will need to be moderated by students themselves and their parents/guardians for security.

Poetry
 
Becoming
Jim Harrison
Poem found at: http://www.ayearofbeinghere.com/2014/05/jim-harrison-becoming.html
We finally die from the exhaustion of becoming.
We whirl with the earth…
our soft brains ill-trained
except to watch ourselves disappear into the distance.
Still, we love to make music of this puzzle.
 
Love After Love
Derek Walcott
Poem found at: https://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-after-love/
The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror...

Famous
Naomi Shihab Nye
Poem found at: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/47993/famous
I want to be famous in the way a pulley is famous,  
or a buttonhole, not because it did anything spectacular,  
but because it never forgot what it could do.

Having Come This Far
James Broughton
Poem found at: http://www.sharonsinger.ca/poem.php?poem_id=390
No longer do I hunt for targets
I've climbed all the summits I need to…
Now I give praise and thanks…

I Am Afraid of Nearly Everything
Anonymous
Full piece at https://www.uua.org/worship/words/prayer/i-am-afraid-nearly-everything
...most of all, I am afraid of what I might become:
reconciled to injustice,
resigned to fear and despair,
lulled into a life of apathy...

"MantriGame" could refer to a variety of things, but it is most likely related to the online gaming industry. It could potentially be the name of a specific video game, gaming platform, or company

involved in game development or distribution. Without further context, it is difficult to provide a more specific description.
