Virtual Journal Entry: ❤️
Yesterday someone came to the house to buy some honey. It was someone I know from my life with Young Living. She is a young mom and someone by hoped I could help change her life by making some extra money. But what I know is that if someone doesn’t want to change their life or their circumstances it doesn’t really matter how much you want to help them it won’t work. It’s just like the saying goes you can’t get poor enough to make someone else rich and you can’t get sick enough to make someone else well. But what I took away from the situation yesterday was she was in a hurry but really didn’t want to talk to me about oils she grabbed a Honey paid me with a little small talk and then said I don’t want to keep you and off she went. I felt really bad after that because I clearly made her uncomfortable and that’s never ever been my intent. From now on I will try harder to follow my gut and be very intentional with who I Help. Humility is a good lesson ❤️
