My hands and ears create miracle

I am a beauty consultant by profession. I am in this career for more than 25 years. My daily life is not other than talking and facial treatment to my clients. Perhaps i am too long in this career, sometimes i really feel bored of the monotonous routine jobs.

What inspire me to go on perhaps not the income alone ( if is merely for this objective , i would have left long ago, i guess ) but the relationship with my clients which has rooted deeply in my heart since the day i get to know them. However today i have even discovered that my super hands and super ears also play their roles to encourage me to move on to this career!!

I get to know a woman by name of madam 'A' through her daughter in 2004. I can still recall she is such a typical simple housewife by appearance. Both of us speak the same dialect and inview we are also married with kids and after awhile we can communicate like long lost friends. Ha ha, by the way this is also a strength that i pick up from my career.


After chatting with her , i realized that she was lost and unhappy towards her family esp to her unreasonable mother in law and her husband who never take an initiative to show concern about her. She was stressed over these matters from the day she married to this family. No wonder she looked very down, timid and depressed .

I am very concern about her situation and really hope can release her tension. So while i was doing her facial , i tried to open her heart, she began to talk about her issues, from the in laws , husband and childredn relation to her daily lives routine etc etc. Surprsing after the facial and the talking , she was much revitalised and cheer up. Wao, my listening healed her stressed. Ho ho.. ho.. Great achievement for me for that day.

She dont visit me very often cos she stays quite a distance from my salon and she dare not drive to town. She depends on her husband or children to fetch her to my salon. I missed her though.

For almost 2 years I have not seen her, guess what ? She comes to visit me again today. It was shocking when i saw her, she looked pale and shrink in size. She is only 44 but she looked much older than me. What happened to her ?

She is still stressed with her family issues and now the immune system drops. I am very worried about her health.

Without further hesitation, i invite to a destressed facial treatment with my wonderful warm hands ( my customer described de ) and she began her story. While i was listening , i tried to console her and due to my hands movement, she slowly and gradually fall asleep and snoring away.

When i have finished the whole treatment, she woke up with fresh and relieved expression. I advice her to go for more facial treatment but if it is too far for her to reach me , she can opt for a saloon which is around her residence. She just replied in a very brief answer by saying , " I only trust you and i like you ! " For that moment , i was stunt with my eyes open widely. I was very happy and touched . To her , i am much more than a beautician, cos every time she visited me, she brought back happiness and hope. Whenever she is down, her children will offer to take her to meet up with me. She told me that.

With such inspiration, i think i must strive for areas of improvement and work better with my hands and ears so that i can help more lost and unhappy ones.
