Well good luck Ted. I only said the monastery as a converse example and to show there is ALOT you can do with yourself in between military and religious service.

I'm not sure what grades have to do with getting a job, you have the degree no? It's not about me here, but no one has ever asked me for my report card I have alot more I would like to say about how I've gotten jobs and what it takes ime, but maybe it's not what you need to hear. Just know I have faith that you could live anywhere and find something to do that will 'advance' your life.

I only mention any more to this because I also didn't get the feeling that the navy lined up perfectly with your values.

There are things like the peace corps which kinda fall in between those two, it's like joining the army of peace?

Honestly brother, I just want to you to be happy with who you are and where you are and are going. So I'll wish you the best and be here for you no matter what you choose. Don't be scared of anything though because you'll always be all right as long as you stay resourceful and have an open mind.

Much love and happiness.
SageTree
