I knocked on that door and I asked the person that answered it, would you let me take care of your garden and would you pay me to do it?

I spent a long time feeling really sad about it and often feeling my dad was gone.
My life was awful.
I had such bad luck.
And now later in life, I look back at that moment and think, wow, I was kind of lucky.
