When Mother Cries 3

Autor Alexander Tetenta
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Having been born with a stammer, there was a time when talking used to be difficult, and could still sometimes be in times of extreme relaxation or when expressing frustration. Nonetheless, when there is a point to put across or something worth saying, I become somewhat flawless. Somehow, I managed to outgrow my stammer, partly due to a ritual which took place when I was a child, and mainly due to the Grace of God. Knowing that the manner in which I speak is pretty much the manner in which I write, I have not surprised myself at all with this third volume of my story. Given that this book so far, for the most parts, has been a product of hindsight, it may be right to say that I have been on some sort of journey of self-discovery for which the lessons of yesterday have really prepared me for the "Blessings of Tomorrow," hence the title of this Volume of my book. Having been able to turn obstacles into stepping stones, rather than stumbling blocks, I am grateful so far that my adversities have been a source of motivation, have strengthened my resolve, and emboldened my spirit. Particularly, in Volume 2, there was room for adventure, exuberance, mistakes, band wagon manoeuvres, uncalculated risks, and misplaced priorities. One thing that will be clear in this volume is that my priorities eventually had to change, and it has. Although it may not be said that there is ever a time to stop learning life's lessons, it is now time to put to good use the vast knowledge that has been gained over the years. What a better way to move forward than to pursue a career for which one derives the joy of waking up in the morning to earn a living from the desire to help others. As an eternal optimist, I remain a believer in history's ability to vindicate the virtuous. To get to this point however, there were certain moments and events between finishing my Master's Degree at the University of Glasgow and now, which altogether, contributed to opening up this new window of opportunity from whence blessings are inevitable. It all started changing rapidly from the summer of 2007 as I wrote my dissertation in New York. That trip to New York had not been part of the plan for that summer, although it was borne out of necessity. Yet somehow, destiny had designed that I be there at that time to participate in the biggest movement of change in recent history, and fate had willed that somehow I should run into the man who was to become the President of the greatest country on earth, and so I did.
