I opened up my paper journal to look for some inspiration or at least guidance and it opened to this quote:
"When one door of happiness closes, another one opens; but often we look so long at the first door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us."
-Helen Keller
After I read this I felt somehow a great amount of relief about my summer situation. Perhaps God wants me to be at Cedar Ridge this summer. Maybe I'm supposed to figure out my future here. I'm not one of these people who usually gets inspired by quotes or little anecdotes, but really I felt a great relief reading it. I hope the rest of you guys who didn't get hired might also find some comfort too. I'm still deep in the grieving process with this thing but I'm seeing the light. This is a major part of my life that I am parting with and although I had mostly metally moved on from SCATS and VAMPY before I was not rehired, this is still a major transition in my life. It'll take a while and giving it up by force is not nearly as easy as giving it up by choice.
