I sometimes wonder if there is a plan for all of us. Each and every one of us. I sit here and think about what has happened in my life over the last month alone. Wow.
My mother and father taught me from when I was really young that everything happens for a reason. I never believed it, I always used to think, “Gosh why did this have to happen too me?” but now I sit back and think, “If that didn’t happen to me, then I wouldn’t be here in this position right now.”
I recently read an article which was the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005. One of the lines which stand out and stare at me in the face and have become a reality in my life already, “… you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.” How true is this statement. I started this by mentioning my life over the past month being a sequence of events, maybe coincidental events, no matter what they are, I’m still here today, me, complete, because of them.
Although I can’t go into much detail yet but trust me when I do have a chance to reveal the secrets behind May & June 2005 you’ll be just as astonished as I am today.
On a different note, I got promoted at work. I am now officially the “Engineering Applications Consultant”. Before I accepted, I tested it out on a resume. Yeap, it looked good on a resume. Accepted. I think I am not going to see Miami much over the next couple of months. With the amount of traveling I’ve done over the past 10 months, I should own my own private plane like Donald Trump. Then again, I don’t have the flow like he does, yet, so I might look into an airplane timeshare.
Heck of a week coming up, buckle-up, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
ciao!
