He (the Guardian) is very glad to see you are now living the
life of an active Bahá'í and keeping in close touch with dear ...
who is a fine friend to have, with his devotion to the Cause and
his optimism.

The Guardian urges you not to be discouraged by any setbacks
you may have. Life is a process of trials and testings, and these
are--contrary to what we are prone to thinking--good for us,
and give us stamina, and teach us to rely on God. Knowing He
will help us, we can help ourselves more.

He does not know how, in the present very chaotic state of the
world, you could find just the kind of job you want of driving
abroad. Positions are difficult to obtain and travel so complicated.
Unless you can migrate out to Africa or Australia, in some
regular government scheme, he would urge you to persevere in
Great Britain and do the best you can. He urges you, in the next
job you have, to pray whenever you feel the conditions at work
are too much for you. You will find you are helped and
strengthened and once you get established in some position you
may work yourself up, or go on with good references to a better
employment later on....
