O knihe

There was a time when the world moved in rhythms. I was younger then than I was now and filled with strange ideas. Some of them came out of the ferment of a San Francisco summer and out of the minds and interactions of a number of characters who became a part of my life. We were people in transition calling ourselves bohemians or seekers and we all brought our stories into a cauldron that bubbled with our losses and desperate moments, our arts and ideas and intelligence, our hopes and left-over dreams...
Some of us had left jobs, some still held onto full- time positions, many had unusual ways of making money, some were in need - all were
to the new edition...
interesting human beings and many were trying to find some worthwhile way of being in the world...
Out of this cauldron came my inspiration for a short booklet for one particular person who was just beginning to walk her life's journey and, after jotting a few ideas down, I also realized it might be of interest to others.
In a flurry of necessity and creative desire a booklet was born with some ideas that had to do with a sometimes frustrating endeavor in most people's lives - going into the world of work, in other words, trying to find a job...
When I reread the booklet many years later, it was readily apparent how much the world had changed (I had talked about using a typewriter) but I found that the message and ideas still

brought out a positive view of the world, one that still had a potential for action and personal fulfillment. As a result, I decided to republish it with some room in the margins for new ideas and ways of achieving what I had envisioned in the original; adding a few short years of time to that and a host of technological achievements. We now find ourselves in the throes of an information revolution, particularly in the way we communicate and make connections with each other...
But the world still moves in rhythms. It still has to do with your inner hopes and dreams and skills and knowledge and desire, all combining to make outer connections with real people who also need you...
Best wishes on your journey...
