Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I took the time today to do something I normally don't:  I listened to a saleswoman about the furniture in the showroom.  My friend and I had gone in because my friend likes the type of furniture they make and I went along because it was her birthday and I wanted to accommodate what she wanted to do.  And I ended up appreciating how knowledgeable the saleswoman was and the quality of the workmanship.  I may never buy a piece, but I understand why the stuff costs what it does and the care that goes into it.  And I learned that my friend loves this furniture, and it was was a little peek into a part of who she is that I had not known.
So my patience became interest and I respected the saleswoman for her skill and tact.  A job well done observed by me and noted.  Sales work can be about passion and engagement.  And I was a witness to it.
