Waiting

This week was full of goodness;
brunch and conversation
various friend visits to my home for tea or lemonade.
Yesterday the heavy heat ended;
I enjoyed yesterday and today a cool breeze
when standing on my balcony.
This breeze and coolness seems a deep gift from heaven.
I stand there, enjoying the breeze,
with a sense of waiting.
I am slowly researching various French courses;
there is a possibility of funding to learn French
while I am unemployed.
If this is the avenue that opens, I will have to learn to be disciplined
in learning a language.
Meanwhile a friend is coming over soon for lunch.
Vespers tonight.
May God help us in all things.

  2. meetings with friends often bring a respite from the usual doldrums for everyday life. I'd love a respite from the heat myself.

  4. sounds promising
    what is happening on the job front?
    have they made a formal offer yet?

    study french and do your work contract?

  5. It has been so hot here in Chicago that cooler weather sounds so nice. I hope you enjoyed your time with your friend.

  6. Thank you everyone for your comments! They are most appreciated.

    The heat is back and forth here; gone again at the moment, but the wetness of the recent rain keeps my windows shut for fear of a humid apartment!

    I have heard NOTHING at all on the job frount; the classes I am looking into would be for full time studies to be funded while I am unemployed...

    I have really enjoyed every minute with various friends this week. Friends are really helping me in this time.

    Thank God.

  7. Amen!
    I agree, talking with friends often helps to clarify and sharpen our thoughts and to break the monotony of life.
