I’m glad you were there for her. That encounter did worlds of good. After my husband died, I needed my scooter repaired. The company was across the street. I knew the repairman from when he set the scooter up in the first place. He came when I was in the middle of a sad moment and gave me a big hug. I was surprised, but felt better.

Thanks, Rosaliene.

Sweet story. Nice to know there are people out there who care.
Such a touching poem.
Thank you, Liz
You’re welcome, Mark.
I liked that.

Very well put. If only more of us were willing to be so compassionate. I believe this world would be a better place.
That it definitely would, Theresa.
