Where's Moses? (2 ratings) by Jack E. Paper
Page 11 of 11 He says he is offered big paying jobs all the time, but he’s not interested
in money at all. Last I heard from him, he took a job as a professor at the
University of Hawaii in Honolulu to do research on the migrating whales. He had
become a diver and spends much of his time underwater, he said. Next, he
planned to go to the Himalayas to live with some Buddhist monks for a while.
After that who knew. It sounded like Moses was really having the time of his
life.
Me, I’m working on getting a degree in mechanical engineering. Hanging out
with Moses and helping him fix things seems to have rubbed off on me. He had a
way about talking about the world and the things in it that made a person feel
better about being a part of it. That anything was possible.
I hold the ‘egg’ once in a while, mostly to see for myself this whole thing
really happened, but also wondering where it came from and who would have
devised such a thing. And when I look around at the world at some of the people
who make life a lot harder than it has to be, I find myself hoping more ‘eggs’
will be found somewhere by someone, anyone…
