My conversation with the tradeswomen below:
“We take small items from the wholesaler on credit to sell. We only earn commissions and maybe extras from the profit of the original amount. Some days sales are poor, but it’s better than doing nothing.”
“It’s difficult to make savings from this, but I hope one day to save enough to have my own small kiosk.”
I ended up buying a whistle 🙂
I have found that once you approach people decently and engage in a conversation, within split seconds, you learn not only a bit more about them, but these little conversations make me pause and be thankful. They make me smile, laugh or sober.

It must be wonderful for those ladies to have someone stop to make conversation. We all seem so wrapped up in our everyday problems and rush through life that I’ll bet most people don’t even notice the women and if they do, don’t break stride to interrupt their day. Your smile and purchase must have brightened their day considerable Jacqueline.

They were quite friendly. I’ve found inspiration from unexpected quarters from the simple people who sometimes go unnoticed. Thank you David ((hugs))
