Door Rant 

One day a Few Years ago I Had a Landscaping Business It was Pretty Much The End Of The Day 
We Had Worked Pretty Much From Early Morning Like Around 5:00 am Till It Was Quiting Time 4:30 I Had A Great Crew At That Time I Had Many Many Jobs That a Great RealEstate Agent That Lived A That Time He Would Just Keep Me Going With Jobs Like You Would Not Belive.
Any How We Where At the Dump Unloading The Tralier That Hot Sunny Day When A Contractor Friend Of Mine Shows Up Back His Truck Up Next To My Tralier I Ask Him Hey Whats Happening He Seemed Kinda Pissed Off He Goes on To Tell Me About this Rich Lady That He Just Fixed Her Home With About 12 Doors That Cost Well Over 3000 Grand And Trim And Stair way Worked oh her House For a Lil Over a week And a Half Well When She Got Back From Vacation She Tells Him That She did not want them Doors Thats Not The Color To Take Them Off And Replace them With this Other Color.
He Tells Her Ima Not Going To Pay For A Whole set Of Doors Out Of My Pocket She Tells Him I Dont Expect you to Heres the credit card And You Will Be Paid for your Labor Just Give Me The Bill Once Your done . So He Takes All The doors down and begings to place the doors in the garage she tells him what are you doing Putting The doors in my Garage hes says well there still good She tells him take them to the dump i dont want them so he does what she told him to do with that iam there he backs up and says to me you need any doors i looked at them and said yes i just bought my mom a older home in los banos he tell me take them then so after my tralier was empty and cleanded out i have my crew load then up . I Offered Him Some Cash he say Na another time maybe and drives off i was like wow thats crazy
Them where some heavy duty Doors What Iam Getten to is that Life some times Slams the door in your face Even More when you try and do Good for others And They Just Dont want Any part of it Let The Door Slam With Grace Just Never Give Them Another Opportunity Move Foward With A Positive Attitude And Stay Focused .Have a Great Peaceful Sunday Evening .
When One Door Closes Another one Opens .
