Bittersweet Magic happens sometimes. At the beginning of this week i was offered something that looked a lot like the job of my dreams but, alas, i could not have it.
The phone rang. I got the information. I tried not to get excited, and i think i did a good job. I waited. I went to the interview. It was fun, i met fascinating people and i had a very good day. I loved them, they liked me. All i could hear was music. I was humming. I got some feedback. It sounded good. It sounded like music.
All along this short process, i was aware things could get a little nasty. Still -and i know it's hard to believe- i kept thinking that even if i didn't get the job, the entire adventure would be worthwile.
Yesterday, i learned i couldn't have it. I understood. You would have understood too. The music stopped. I panicked for a while. And then i listened out to a bittersweet melody coming from somewhere else. Magic happens sometimes.
