The Emotional Roller Coaster never stops

Every day...every month...for the past three years...since our economy took the big plunge...I've been riding the Emotional Roller Coaster. Good months and bad ones....fighting for survival.
It's been dog eat dog fighting for every order. Stretching my imagination. How can I offer better service? How to better market to those customers that don't know me yet? Day in and day out...fighting..... fighting for every order. Some of my competitors have closed their doors. There has just not been enough business for everyone....and only the strong can survive.
Then I woke up today with the news that one of my competitors, Davis Finish Products, burned to the ground overnight. These were good people that served our community well. I fought them for customers....that was my job....and they were tough competitors.....but this morning I feel so sad for them.
It could just as easily have been me. It could be my family business in ashes this morning. It could be my employees out of work. And the dozens of famlies affected....just terrible.
I offer all those affected my sincerest condolences.
