Independence
in life is one of the greatest treasures that exists. And, that’s
exactly what Anita Fodrasz had in mind when she set out in life on
the path of a hairdresser. Her dream was her very own saloon, and
for her there was no other way. And, she worked hard at her trade and
she learned. And, the time of having to say yes to a boss was just
par
for the course.
Anita Fodrasz was following her very own path.
.
But,
instead of going in search of a saloon, the saloon came to her!And,
it happened one day after work.
.
Anita
Fodrasz was just emptying her post box when she noticed that the door
to a ground floor room that used to be a shop was open. And there
was her neighbour. He explained that the room used to be a workshop
for sewing, but, had been closed for the last 20 years. And, now he
was getting
it ready
to rent out again. And, that was all that was needed. That evening
Anita Fodrasz went home with her future. She had signed up for the
room. Her saloon now had an address, and in the same block of flats
where she lived.
.
And
then came the work. With family and friends joining in, this
once home to old boxes and unwanted junk became Anita's saloon! It
took hours of hard work with brushes and paint and rolled up sleeves.
But, the effort was worth every minute, the business took off. Within
just a short space of time, the people of Veszprem, the small town in
Hungary where Anita lives, were beating
a path
to her door. Anita was a cut
above the rest,
and word had gone round!
.
But,
her customers weren’t
the only ones with smiles on their faces! With her own apartment just
five floors above, Anita had plenty of time for her young son of
eight. And, her husband, too, was not to miss out on his comforts!
His favourite meals were never to be more than just a short wait
away! In a word, and putting it simply, everyone was happy!
.
And
happiness is the key to
it all. It comes with the getting of the things that one wants most
of all. And, Anita with her scissors and skills was able to give
people the good looks and beauty they dreamt of. Her dream became
their dream! And, it all came true whilst checking her post and
seeing that a door that was normally closed was standing wide open
instead. And, that was all that it took. Anita went in and started
her future.

Idioms
A
cut above the rest
– better than the others.
.
The
people were beating
a path
to her door - many people were eager to go there.
.
Par
for the course
– how you expect things to be (usually in a negative sense).
