Some months ago (two or three, I do not remember well - sorry, it seems an year ago to me) I posted something about my situation at the University. You were all very encouraging, and you suggested that it was advisable to me to apply for a certain position. It is exactly what I did (it does not need to tell through which very rocambolesque steps...). Anyhow, you were right in saying I would have been asked to apply, for I was (actually I was really obliged to apply!); but unfortunately I, on my side, was right in saying that I could not be the main candidate, for it was so. The decision is not taken yet; but, at the present moment, is is very probable that such position goes to someone else than me.
Unfortunately again, this is not the main problem. The truly tragic point is that my professor, after giving to me the bad news about the position, said that, being my situation very difficult, I had to decide whether I wanted to stay at the University (with no certainty), or to leave forever. Such aut-aut was a first cold shower. I had the second one last Friday, when, after a couple of day of desperation, I have told him I wanted to stay anyhow: he watched me very surprised and remarked how it was strange to him that I wanted to stay "after such offence" (i.e. after they let me know that I will not have the job). I took this as he tried to hint very politely that he wanted to get rid of me.
I asked the I ching about my situation for three times. The question was always the same: what will happen to me (with reference to the University)? Unfortunately I have not the first two answers with me, but I know they were favourable (I will post them later, when I find them). This surprised me a lot. Now an hour ago I asked the same question and the answer was: hex 12, changing lines 4 and 6 - hex 8.
This seems again to be a very favourable answer. To me it says that the many years I spent without results are about to end, and I am about to move in a much more pleasant situation. Am I wrong? Is there a more suitable question I have to ask? Thank you very much indeed.
