Why does the presence of a tradesman arouse curiosity? Does he possess a mystical charisma - which both client and passer-by find alluring? Does she stare, because she enjoys watching a man physically at work - or because she is tempted; by his youthful body? Whatever the reason - her behaviour is noticed. And the tradesman cannot ignore her subtle persuasions; or advances. Andrew was a nice brought up Catholic boy, who hated school. He not only struggled with learning - but was teased; because of his good looks. Wanting nothing more than to be a stonemason, he finished school in year ten; and was lucky to secure a job with one of Sydneys top builders. Needing to complete a Certificate in Stonemasonry - before he could dream of being his own boss.; he worked hard to learn all the skills needed. But while he built up fine skills, he could not avoid being exposed to the fun and games of other tradesmen - including their cheekiness; and tease. And he would learn - that being a nice boy; does not immune you from your own temptations, flirtations, and misunderstandings. Sometimes, what he perceived as true - was nothing but his own imagination; and misinterpretation of events. The ups and downs, common to the industry of trade; would see Andrew develop thick skin. Such experiences, would help him get over a shyness he had with girls; from school age. New experiences and their challenges, also helped to shake off hidden weaknesses; while fortifying his strengths. Where Andrew based the worksite, as the only place for building new skills and clientele - little did he know that destiny was using it as a platform; to build for him, a pathway to love. And the journey he had to make, in order to reach this love; left him totally amazed and stunned - with where he actually had to go; and the hurdles he had to cross.
