9 months

So I've been at this journey for 9 months. Sometimes it doesn't seem possible, other dys it just seems like yesterday. But so thankful and so glad that I continue to move forward with it.

** This was from yesterday:

Today I took a break from cold calling and stopped at a Starbucks to check my email and grab a venti hot chocolate. I had stopped at this Starbucks about 2-3 months ago while I was in the area. Today I went to order and the very nice barista says to me, “you’re the venti hot chocolate, extra hot right, no whip and skim milk girl?” You could have pushed me over with a feather! Really, how in the world did he know that? I mean he talks to hundreds of people and makes hundreds of differnet drinks and combinations...so how? I had only been here once before but that was months ago. Once I closed my mouth and said yes, I asked how in the world did you know that? His response, it’s my job to know my customers. That’s just it, we are on this earth to get to know people, how the click, what they do and how they work. That’s our job. He’s just really good at it. I stepped away with my perfect drink and thought to myself if I could just remember where I put my keys that would be a success. But in all seriousness, we are made to care for one another; we are made to remember each other. We’re made to make each other smile. So get to know those around you and take nothing for granted!
