			P. works easily now.

			P. wants me to be thoroughly ‘au fait’ with Paul.

			It is a question of serving the spiritual things of our time. I can’t combine this with a good in-come. It means dedication to a higher service. In that sense writing and publication come up.

			One chooses a life and must shoulder all the risks which go with it.

			It is however useful to have a living and also the channels of approach, i.e. publication. [[#mw-page-base\|↑]]
