Posture Pontifications

I have found myself in a particular posture more frequently lately.

Unfortunately, it is the posture of burying my head in my hands. Not the shame kind. The sad, or depressed, or "pity me" kind.

The Job Hunt is taking its toll on my emotions. I wish it was sadness of getting rejected for jobs, at least that would be a start. Instead, I have only found two spots worth sending my resume to. One of them would even be difficult to take if the job was offered.

So I go to meetings, with professors, mentors, friends, old acquaintances, internship advisors, anyone who will listen hoping for encouragement. But too often I leave, come home, and put my head in my hands.

It's taking its toll.

Feel free to pray for me... I don't know exactly what for, so pray whatever you want.

Prayers, love and support always. Will avoid the trite sayings and continue to pray for the best.

Ohhhh yes the post-seminary blues...... probably the most depressing and hopeful time in my life.

A few questions:
you want to stay in MN?
Any particular denomination?
what type of position?
