Where in the world is Anthony?

Right now I'm sitting in sunny Mesa, Arizona. Last week I was holding my head in my hands wondering where I was going to find another job and today I'm in meetings with executives and multi-millionaires talking about my plans for the customer service call center that I'll be managing. :)

It is funny how things work sometimes... I don't want to say that you are blessed for breaking the rules or that the "plan" that God has for us involves carefully placed mistakes or anything, the fact remains that we would all still be waiting to be born if Eve hadn't eaten the forbidden fruit. So I can't help but think that some of our mistakes are just destined to happen for a better purpose. At the time the mistake happens it is very difficult to see the forest through the trees, but when you are able to look back on it with different eyes, it is amazing how blessed you can feel after something terrible like losing your job in this economy can make you feel. I really hope the next lesson that I'm meant to learn doesn't involve going to jail or something after what a roller coaster this has been. I tell ya... March has been one of the hardest months of my entire life. And that is even considering that not all that much has really hit the fan. It has just been big stuff that hit and that always makes a big difference.

Still... I'm glad that I have the support that I have. I know none of the people who support me ever read this blog, but thank you to them anyway. I can't afford to go much crazier than I already am, so the words of comfort have helped. Its nice to know that while you can feel so alone in one respect, you can still feel like you are surrounded in another. Such a strange month and yet I know it is one that I'll never ever forget. After all, those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. I for one don't ever want to repeat the last 30 days. No siree bob.
