Understanding is random

I shuf­fle my deck of cards and pull three out, giv­ing me the fol­low­ing:
Card 1 reads: “get help”. Fine, but I wish it was a lit­tle more spe­cif­ic. Which of my prob­lems does it think I should seek for about? Is it refer­ring to the nev­er end­ing search for mean­ing and under­stand­ing in life. Or per­haps my friends who dri­ve me nuts but I love them any­way. Per­haps it is try­ing to guide my job hunt­ing efforts. It is ever pos­si­ble that its telling me how to find love. And where should I seek help? The whole point of con­sult­ing the cards was to get some help in the first place. Go fig­ure.
Card 2 reads: “open a draw­er”. Okay, that’s more like it a sim­ple instruc­tion, so I open a draw. There ain’t much of inter­est, most­ly its full of old audio tapes that I haven’t used for five or so years now. I keep mean­ing to lis­ten to what’s on them, sort them out and throw away the real­ly bad ones. The draw also has a hand full of unused con­doms which hold no spe­cif­ic mean­ing in them­selves. I won­der briefly what my mom makes of it when she’s spy­ing in my room. Ah well, be pre­pared (or some such trite).
Card 3 reads: “con­sult the news”. Hmmm. Well I would but I’m being bom­bard­ed with it enough at the moment to not need to go out and seek it.
Based I my the­o­ry that the oppor­tu­ni­ties of a life time would always hap­pen to me just after I give up or leave or are in some way not there to have the oppor­tu­ni­ty hap­pen to me at all I turn over the card on the top of the deck.
Card 4 read: “com­bine ele­ments”. Well duh. Still I’m not sure exact­ly how. I get the feel­ing I’m miss­ing some­thing. Again.
