We don't always get rainbows and unicorns...
Sometimes just frustration and questions.
“By the sweat of your face
you shall eat bread,
till you return to the ground,
for out of it you were taken;
for you are dust,
and to dust you shall return.”
- Genesis 3:19 -
Today was a rough day of work.
Tiring. Lots of puzzles. Little headway.
Hacking because I can't rest 'til it's done...

I've been writing fantasy posts about Heaven.
This is not one of them.
After a couple of hard days at it, the machine I'm creating control electronics for is still not working quite right.
I came home tonight, and instead of kicking back and resting, found myself hacking and tinkering, trying to fathom what I've missed when it comes to "putting the soul" into this new industrial machine.
Even so,
I'm thankful for this bit of work I have.
I had hoped this project would be done already; there's no more money in it, but I've made a commitment. I'm going back tomorrow, and will keep going back until it's working right.
One day, I'll tell you the whole story...
For now, I simply didn't want you to think I had vanished.
Time for bed.
For tonight, frustration reigns...

Just came in to check on you my friend. See you are kicking butt still. I am working long days for IBM. Honestly it is pretty great. I'll check back tomorrow. It is probably time for me to get active again.

Wow, this almost makes me a believer in ESP... I was just wondering about you the other day.
Hey, have you got any IBM consulting gigs available? What is it that you do for them?
I can kick butt in the technical sector too, ;), and I'm in the market for some good challenging engineering work...
Great to hear from you, thank you for saying "hi" and please drop me a note when you post anything... ;)

I came across one of your old comments @creatr, and felt the need to browse through. ^_^
We all have difficult days. Life is full of challenges and it is the surmounting of them that helps to make us strong.
As an aside, while not so certain about ESP in and of itself, I do believe in something related. ^_^
Have a great day and week.

Greetings, James,
Thank you for taking the time to comment, and for your kind words.
Thanks also for sharing your article. Although (because I am preparing to leave for Maker Faire this morning) I've only skimmed it, I can see that our religious beliefs have some overlap but some rather wide divergence as well. Perhaps we'll be able to discuss as time goes on.
In any case, your encouraging comment is much appreciated!
I hope your day and week are also wonderful.
😄😇😄

Greetings @creatr :c)
You are welcome. ^_^ Don't worry. I'm not seeking your conversion. Its but another interpretation of our reality that seeks to explain why some people end up thinking uncannily compattible thoughts.
Of course we can discuss any elements that you wish to delve into.
Take care. ^_^

I keep on checking if you came back yet. This is the only way for me to contact you. How are you? Steemit is picking up so it is really worth being here at this stage. I often wish that it can just be the old gang again, but there are so many people here now that we are all drowning. Working hard to create a steady income and this far it has been worth it. Hope to hear from you soon.
