if you fall 7 times, just come back up 8 times.
So after the huge escrow fell,
I still kept going back to Big Island for more house hunting.
I had many strange incident like picking future Power plant site, area with Community Lawsuit against Dairy Co. not disposing Cow feces properly, 5 multiple offer situation after no one bid for 2 straight years, what ever I chose, something bad came up.
So, at this last trip, I say last, because honestly, I was spending too much money and too tired. If I don't go in escrow with this trip, I was going to call a quit.
My friends back home were saying, Big Island is not calling you.
It was last property of the day, without any luck so far,
I felt totally beaten and I told my realtor that "you can go home now".
I didn't think it was happening.... She asked me " Are you sure?".
I said "yes, please go, I don't want to waste your time",
so she left.
Me and Mom (was there again), were super hungry too.
We were ready to quit, but I said to myself, one more.
I said to Mom, "let's just take a look at the last property and leave Honokaa,
we can eat in Hilo near the airport..." and off we went.
Driving through the little street to the lot, it gave me strange familiar feeling.
I felt deja-vu and my heart said I love this place, before even reaching there.
It was as my heart got lifted.
At the end of the little street, I saw an entrance to the lot.
It seemed as land was beaming with the light! I don't know why I felt that way.
It was cloudy day, but it was bright scenary to me.
I parked car on the street, and went over the chain, which had sign says Private lot...
and when I went into the Lot, it took my breath away!
Perfect!! I thought!
It was such a beautiful lot.
This lot has been sleeping for 60 years!!! Waiting for me to wake her up.
I felt joy and happiness~... 1 year of effort was well worth it at this point.
And I felt appreciation for the keeper of the land, who has protected it as beautiful as it is for
such a long time.
