A thing that just happened. I wanted to light a candle, but my electronic plasma lighter was too low on battery. I searched through my car for a charger, but couldn’t find a micro USB plug. I walked away, defeated. Then I realized that I had moved a pack of matches out of the way while digging. 🤦‍♂️

@jarrod Certainly there's a metaphor here about focusing on the journey or simply getting the job done.

@jarrod Update: The matches are too old and/or wet to light. 🙃

@jarrod The saga ends: I used my big human brain to finally solve the problem. 🧠
