The Interview

I recently had an interview for a job. I really want it. If I get it, I believe it will utilize all of the talents I have. I can only wait patiently for now.

I said something talking on the phone that I thought was rather profound and I will share it with you.

You can give up on what is on your mind. You can't give up on what is in your heart.

That is where I am right now. I have matters on my heart that just don't go away. I have a sense of destiny in my life and I believe things happen for a reason.

For example, I want to make a film or a documentary. The dream doesn't go away. If I get this job, it might mean that the opportunity to do this might present itself. However, if I am not chosen for this position, it doesn't mean this matter will disappear.

At times I review these things pressing on my heart. They seem crazy, impossible and illogical, yet they don't go away. They teach me patience. I wait. I have learned in life that everything doesn't depend on me.

For example, I may feel totally qualified for this position. I may be the best candidate by far. Feeling this way is important, but regardless of how I feel, the decision isn't mine to make. I have to accept the fact that others will make the decision. Hopefully I have said all of the right things. Somehow a still, small voice will tell them the name of the person they seek. I really hope it is mine.
