I’ve never seen her but in that moment of her passing by I had started to feel defeated until she said that.
I bought a new lawn mower this spring it worked great, in the spring, this summer was so hot and no rain I didn’t need to use it. This morning I went to mow and it wouldn’t start.
There’s no primer on it so I Googled watched some videos tried some suggestions and was able to diagnose it was not getting fuel and was clogged.
I was taking the carburetor off and my next step I didn’t have the proper tools so was was just having to make shift one and it felt like I’d never get the bowl off. That’s when she passed by and said Get it girl.
It gave me more confidence I got it off drained the gas and cleaned the clog put everything back together and it works.
Those little moments of encouragement really matter. I never thought I’d be more excited to mow because now I can and it’s not broke.
So Thank you to the woman who encouraged me and to all yall who do the same for others.
