A Conversation In A Subway Train

"…For this money I would have never started even thinking of making that myself! "
I came closer to two women talking about a crocheted bag, which was the subject of their conversation.
"It’s a waste of time for me," went on the owner of the bag. "I can afford to pay the cost, but as I think about the time and efforts invested into making such a bag, I don’t understand how one can make it!"
The other woman was wearing a knitted jacket, which I guess she had made herself, was just smiling…
As it has become a habit to think about S. when I see or hear about crocheting, my thoughts immediately went to her.
She’s been working with needles and crochets for nearly forty years, had made hundreds of garments, and had never earned a dollar for any of her projects.
"Waste of time…" May be for some people it really is. But, not for S.
For her crocheting is the way of living, the whole philosophy!
Do you know this 'ancient,' quotation:" Do what you love doing and money will come!"
Love, the everlasting locomotive of all our existence! Passion and love to whatever we are doing in this world are the keys to happiness, wealth, success.
This is why, when I offered to S. to create a web site for crocheters, she loved that idea at 'first hearing' I will not bore you with description of hard work of creating our first web-baby, the work which is now in progress...
Another factor that helps us is our faith that everything we are doing will be useful for crocheters.
