Shine rays of love strike my heart and it manages to beat again For so long I sheltered my love from rain but the rain ruined it for angry rust got the best of meBut you popped out of nowhere giving me hope and runny rain taking my pain and restoring it with sunny rays of love

Sunny RainThey may have hope for you but I have noneEach lie that I believed I should have learned fromI have no sympathy no faith no love and no hatredMemories faded into the past time was merely wastedYou say I made a fool of you yet you made one of yourselfYou say I did this to you yet you chose your own hellDonrsquot ask for my forgiveness when you wish not to be forgivenThey may trust you they may

Father of Mine listen but we were your childrenWe lived behind closed doors behind their turned facesWe were the ones alone with you on a nightly basisThey say a childrsquos love is forever but mine is ancientIrsquove given you plenty of chances each one you wastedI may not hold these scars against you but I surely donrsquot forgetIf I werenrsquot to remember Irsquod still be burning inside like your cigarettesI would not have learned from your mistakes and they would have been sure to repeatIrsquom content with the life I lived I appreciate that you never made it easy

You taught me lessons no one could imagine lessonrsquos they couldnrsquot fathomSo I canrsquot bring myself to hate you for what happened

Kurt Troutman owns a cell-phone it was given to him as a Christmas present but it has only left the house twice He still writes 10 to 15 letters a month to family member and friends only to receive e-mails in return ldquoI would have done better in a different

timerdquo he says Troutmanrsquos road to teaching was by no means a straight one as a young man he had absolutely no interest in being a teacher ldquoUntil the age of 38 I had not taught a day

in my liferdquo Troutman said Itrsquos no surprise Troutman has lived a life many young people today dream of He has worked as a park ranger in Yellowstone he has traveled across the country hitchhiking he has been a United Nations Aid Worker he has been arrested he has been a lieutenant in the United States Navy and now he is a political science and history teacher at Muskegon Community College Troutman is one of the few remaining links to a time that once was A time when life was simple A time when one could hitchhike across the country for a summer with nothing more than 60-70 dollars and the thirst for adventure ldquoIn the 70rsquos the easiest way to travel was hitchhiking and one summer I hitched from Michigan to Seattle Washington down to Los Angeles back up to Yellowstone and then I came back to Michigan

via Texas It was about a 10000 mile triprdquo Troutman said Troutman went on this trip one summer while he was a student at Saginaw Valley State University During March of 1980 Michigan raised the age which one could consume alcohol from 18 to 21 Troutman was 19 at this time and therefore had already been drinking legally for a year ldquoSo we were having the big party the last legal party Well the police came into our room at 1201 so we were technically illegal by one minute and so we were brought in They arrested 30 of us or something like thatrdquo Troutman said Most were forced to sit in jail until the following Tuesday when they were to appear in front of a judge The group was forced to pay a fine of one single dollar split evenly between all thirty people Troutmanrsquos brief encounter with the law did not impede his academic progress as he graduated with his bachelorrsquos degree in political science from Saginaw Valley State in 1981 Following his graduation he decided he was going to join the United States Peace Corps ldquoMost people who are going into the Peace Corps are early 20rsquos I graduated at 21 and decided Irsquod go next year Then I decided Irsquod go the next year

I waited about 11 of those next years and joined the Peace Corps in my early 30rsquosrdquo He was brought into the Peace Corps by a teacher in high school who was a volunteer and had come back the lure of being a volunteer had always attracted him and after experiencing life for a decade after graduating

he decided ldquoIt had better be nowrdquo Joining the United States Peace Corps eventually led Troutman to international work where he became a United Nations Aid Worker This opportunity allowed him to be assigned to work in South Africa as an election monitor in the historic 1994 election This was the first time in which black people were allowed to vote in South Africa which led to Nelson Mandela being appointed to office Troutman and his readiness to ldquomake it happenrdquo allowed him to not only trek across America but across the world After years of working as a United Nations Aid Worker he went to the University of Colorado in order to complete his Masterrsquos degree in political science and it was at this college where Troutman was first introduced to teaching Three years after presiding over South Africarsquos historic election a professor asked
