November 14, 2024, Thursday afternoon, 12:50pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California, USA. When people ask me about the job search I paraphrase Camus and say I am open to the possibilities of the universe. This morning I was thinking of another book, Two Years Before the Mast, by RH Dana, the namesake of my home town. He mentioned in his journal how the ship waited two weeks at sea for favorable winds to blow them where they needed to go. The job search is leading me to places that seem stagnant. But I must be patient and allow the winds to blow me where I need to go. Now o am thinking about my dad’s favorite saying as a Lutheran minister, “come spirit come, blow spirit blow.” He said it so much we had it etched on his tombstone.
Come spirit come
