then she would teach me.
As soon as I arrived back from the dry cleaners, we
would cut out patterns and divide up the clothes according
to different categories, from which then alterations would
be made. Usual-ly, I took the tasks that involved quick
alterations, such as hemming, cuffing and resizing waists etc
… On average, 20 to 30 pieces of clothing were altered in
a day. Although on busy days more than 50 pieces would be
altered. Other alteration experts visited the dry cleaners once
or twice a week. Owners of the dry cleaners were favorable
towards us, because of my daily visits. These daily visits
involved 3 hours of driving on average.
Driving is enjoyable. Three hours on the road didn’t bore
me. I enjoyed the time spent, even if it involved driving
on the same road. Three years of daily driving can become
bother-some but it was good for me. What made it so
enjoyable was the quality of time spent on listen-ing to
sermons, meditating and giving praises. It was always loud
and messy at home because of my three boys. It actually felt
less burdensome to be outside.
I always enjoyed driving, but since the first day of hearing
the voice of the Holy Spirit, the hours spent in the car
became more valuable than gold. Nobody interrupted me.
