On the job front
Still playing along here at work, I have some new perspectives that I will share when I have a spare moment…they actually want me to WORK if you can believe it
I had two interviews yesterday, both went extremely well
I have a second round of interviews with one on Monday
After both of them, I drove to the Oval and parked my car. I walked up the Mall to the Memorial Church and slipped inside
This place was always a place of solace for me when I worked there as its so peaceful and serene. I would sit there for what seemed like hours trying to get my head together while I stressed about everything and anything
(I would go to the top of Hoover Tower sometimes too, for a totally different peaceful perspective)
I had my prayer mala and I sat in ‘my’ pew and just held it as I stared up at the angels flying above me
It was so quiet you could literally hear a pin drop…even with some people sitting in there, it was that absence of noise that really makes you feel like you are in a special place
I tried to continue the great feelings I had gotten from my interviews and I said my prayers over and over
I left the church as quietly as one can while wearing heels (well, heels for me lol) and walked out into the gorgeous autumn afternoon
Whatever the reason, I am supposed to stay where I am working…I am hoping that what I can bring back to Stanford is a stronger pull in the long run
I hope so too…. Hang in there. I know it’s rough.

Isn’t it funny how a place like that can bring you such a peaceful feeling? Good luck and hang in there! “Good things come to those who wait”…
