This is good stuff, John; Please read the email I sent out two days ago to Linda, which describes my own transformation from unemployed and broken-down worker, to student, to graduate and finally to a good job at aged 55. It¹s possible. We get down on our knees, and ask for guidance because the path we were on has come to an end and we still have several decades of life to spin out. Then we work hard to discover what our next step will be, trusting that He sends His guidance to all who ask of it without measure. The work and the steps and the decisions are left up to us but somehow, we get onto the next path which can take us some time further, and we grow.
