Just to prove you can relate anything to community development I am going to relate community development to my favourite meal for breakfast, a strawberry pop tart. The pop tart is sweet, convenient, relatively inexpensive and if you look at the overall shape of a pop-tart you will see that it is rectangular in shape, has finely defined edges, these edges possible cut by a machine or as I like to think a highly trained ,rapturous in spirit, culinary or pastry professor named Susan, but this doesn’t matter. What is important is the connection, the relationship, the cohesion, the romantic fusion of the pop tart and the idea of community development….. Ok this is actually a lot harder than I had first thought. I honestly thought I could get something out of this and it is possible I can. Community development is far more complex than the delicious convenient pastry known as a strawberry pop-tart and even more complex than the blue-berry. Perhaps community development would have a more accurate and promising relationship with a more complex edible food, maybe something with layers, something sophisticated, something foreign, hard on the outside but soft and sweet on the inside……. a Danish?!!..
Note to self: do not write on blog after forgetting to eat breakfast

Hahaha!!! Though I didn't learn much from this blog, I have to say that you have a way with words. I really enjoyed how you laid that out and I agree that community development is in fact more complicated than a strawberry pop-tart. I look forward to the piece that you write on the Danish!
ReplyDeleteWow nice Brodie! I will never look at a pop tart in the same way again.
