I was reminded of a very valuable yesterday. A woman came in to the nursery to buy a plant. Her teeth were not in the greatest shape. Smelled heavily of smoke and a real raspy voice. And a fanny pack. She brought in a tiny piece of plant and wanted another one. When I didn’t know the plant she said “I thought I was coming to an expert” All this was right as we opened. Hadn’t even had a chance to get the day rolling yet. We tried to find the plant but everything I showed here just wasn’t quite what she was looking for. I started to get a little frustrated and she eventually settled on something. 30 minutes later I saw her still looking though the shrub lot. She said she wanted to return the old plant and get a new one she found. She had never left the store and was already ready for exchange. I was a little grumpy in my voice but asked if I could carry it to here car and I did.
As I got to her truck she asked if I would like a gatoraid or a water. She insisted. I don’t usually take water from strangers but I did just to make her happy…and leave. But as I looked in her car I saw a stick used to pick up trash. I had seen that stick. That stick was used by the women I see at the park cleaning up every morning when I run. This person that I had judged so horribly was the woman that cleaned up the park every day on her own time and money. And kept our park the nicest park in town. She took pride in it and I had told her thank you several times. Bu we cross paths in the dark or early light. I really had never seen her. The person that I had judged for the bad teeth and smoking was actually one of the people that I was most thankful for each day. Once I realized who she was and I thanked her one more time. She cried this time. And inside I cried a little for being less than nice to a person that was undeserving all because of appearance. Another life changing moment

If you believe in Dot IN then you’ll LOVE Sedo’s Auction of
Super Premium Dot IN
Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. I Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by me, Shane . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything I say is based on my own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or my opinion is correct. I hand choose my names but I am paid to make this list by the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good
That is a great story.
Good life lesson story.
Nice Story Shane. It happens to all of us at one time or another.
I work with the public as well .. wish I had a better memory and/or decided to keep a diary 25 years ago .. there are people out there who surprise me every day .. on both sides of the coin. People who look professional and clean who can be really horrible examples of humanity (likely the people who leave the garbage in the park) .. while at the same time on the other end stories like yours! 🙂 .. the little old toothless ladies are actually my favorite .. most of the time I can’t even understand what they say .. but they still make me smile all the same!
On the domaining side .. today was a rare day I went to bed (relatively) early last night AND got up a little late this morning and totally missed today’s names. Usually it’s no big deal as I tend to have a good chunk of the names on your list on mine already .. but looking at the matching names I lower my expectations on acquiring the domain(s) due to increased visibility .. happy to report I got one of the ones I wanted today at a nice price I wouldn’t have expected .. it’s a real pain for me to do auctions at work and I need to work them into my fixed-time breaks (meaning I might need to bid blindly in advance before the auction ends if I really want it) .. I might not even had bid if I had seen it on your list today! lol
But just pointing out that I enjoy the blog even without the names .. not just for the domaining tips/stories/news .. but also for stories like the one you shared today! 🙂
