A Glorious New Day by alophoto

A Glorious New Day

Today began a new week and it started on a lovely note with another stunning sunrise out my back deck. So grateful for a new day, such a perfect beginning and a pretty darn good life.

I did get that wretched email today, the one that I was hoping not to get. The one that said that I didn't get the job. I wasn't terribly surprised as I hadn't aced the second interview, but was still a bit disappointed. I am looking forward to the next opportunity, though. It will be better for me. Maybe in a camera shop so that I can get lenses for a song. Or perhaps it's best for me not to work outside of the home now. Working is so overrated;-). I wasn't really looking forward to trying to juggle both home and work life (and 365 and other distractions/me time).

Hope that you all had a lovely start to your week.
Wow this is absolutely fantastic! :) I am so sorry you didn't get the job :( I'm thinking of you sunshine :) God will present you with a better opportuntiy :) Smiles

You will be lucky next time Amanda.
This picture is perfect and feel good with sunrise.

Aw shame. Maybe the perfect job is just round the corner. Just behind this sunset.

make that sunrise....

Very apropos title Amanda!
February 25th, 2013  
Great that you started the day with this lovely pic!
If you had of got that job you wouldn't be free for the one that is meant for you round the corner.

Beautiful sunrise capture, such nice warm tones in that early morning sky. Sorry you didn't get the job but the next one will be better. And I totally agree, working is highly over-rated.

So your back deck faces east - and you obviously can see the sun rise over the roofs of the houses. Must be nice for you! Decisions, decisions - the idea of no work is good but one must weigh the consequences. Something will turn up!

Beautiful shot! I'm sorry about the job, though I have to say in my experience, when something like that happens, just means God has something better in mind for you. Keep your chin up! The right opportunity will come along :)

Beautiful sunrise! Love the color and the tree silhouettes. Sorry about the job. It just wasn't meant to be. I am sure something even better is waiting for you!
February 25th, 2013  
Gorgeous sunrise!
I'm sure the right opportunity is out there for you.
February 25th, 2013  
Lovely sunrise - something better will turn up I'm sure :)

awesome! Sorry to hear about the job. As you said, there is always next time, and you can use this interview as a learning experience.

wonderful sunrise ~ looks like it was going to be a glorious day... sorry to hear about the job ~ its all a learning experience and although disappointing at the time, I am sure you will find something to suit [I over rate work too, btw :D]
February 25th, 2013  
Sorry you didn't get the job!! I think work is highly over rated! This is a beautiful shot! I love how the tree silhouettes frame the beautiful orange orb!
February 25th, 2013  
Beautiful way to start your day. Here's wishing the perfect job comes your way.
February 25th, 2013  
Glad that you started on a high note, even if the later news wasn't what you wanted. I'm sure a better opportunity will come along, and I'm glad to hear you're thinking positively about it too. Love the sunrise colors!

Stricking colour, great capture.

Drop dead gorgeous sunrise. Sorry about the email, Amanda. But you know some things happen for a reason, as stupid as that sounds. Enjoy your time being home with your family as long as you can. It flies by before you know it. Peace.

Hi friends, thank you for your lovely comments and encouragement about this shot and my failure to get the job I was hoping for. I am looking forward to what is in store for me instead and hoping that it may be something that gets me discounts on camera gear!
February 26th, 2013  
Beautiful sunrise! So warm and inviting. I'm so sorry you didn't get the job, but whatever comes next will be even better for you.
