a used heater

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

We bought a new (used) heater and it only works on certain wall sockets and only if you let it heat very gradually. ¥40,000 probably in doubt… The model shows promise but this used instance seems to be no good.

It may be that when we no longer know what to do we have come to our real work, and that when we no longer know which way to go we have come to our real journey. The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings.

—Wendell Berry
