The Kindness of a Stranger
It’s tough to listen to pep talks from the people close to us when we’re feeling down. It can seem like they only care because they have to. But kind words from a stranger who has gone through similar struggles can carry more weight. They already know what it feels like, so their empathy is genuine.
I’m thrilled they’ve stayed in touch. This only goes to show how valuable human connection is and why it’s crucial to reach out when someone appears lonely or isolated. You genuinely can make a difference in somebody’s day just by connecting with them, even if it’s just for a brief chat.
