A glass half full

Last night was a trying one for many different reasons.
Went to the gym and tried some front squats. The whole thing turned it out to be an epic fail, apparently I had hurt my back a few days ago and that injury resurfaced again.
For some days I had been working on integrating twitter with SMS Invite. Till last night I knew nothing about the Android threading model, asynchronous tasks, and my knowledge of services and activities were feeble at best. The simple problem of executing an http get request exposed my lack of knowledge in all the above topics (not that their knowledge is needed anyway to execute the above task). I spent a solid 5 hours learning the internals of the threading model, handlers, activities, intents, and what you have it...only to realize later that the Uses permissions:Internet was disabled. 0_0
Now if I had been a bit more careful, maybe I would have completed my task much earlier but without the knowledge that I had gained.
Just makes me wonder, is this God at work?
