I could think of a lot of people like this in my life, but the one that stands out the most is my grandmother, who runs a traditional spiritual consultation business in my hometown. She performs calming rituals and helps people with things like naming costumes and fortune-telling. The business originally belonged to my grandfather, but after he passed away, my grandma gradually took over the work for herself. Over time, she became quite well-known in the local community, and people started to visit her safe world of moths, making her business incredibly successful. One experience that really impressed me was that one day a young child kept crying and refused to sleep at night. The parents believed that something supernatural was happening, so they brought the child to my grandmother for help. However, instead of performing rituals right away, my grandmother took spend time talking to the family and explaining that the child was just stressed because the parents constantly argued at home. She calmly advised the parents to spend more time comforting the child and improving the family atmosphere. Going all this experience made me realize how inspiring and heartwarming her work could be.
