The broccoli in the teeth detail made me laugh because that is exactly the kind of moment when someone says something that catches you completely off guard and you do not know what to do with it. I have been on both sides of this and the times I almost did not say the thing but did anyway have stayed with me longer than almost anything else. There is a woman who stopped me at the gym years ago to tell me something kind about my writing and I still think about that Tuesday. You are right that we need to say it out loud more. The nudge is usually there. We just have to follow it. 🤍
Oww, that touched my heart. But I truly believe that our soul always stays young and vibrant; it's our bodies that are just trying to adapt to this world, and in that process, our spirits only grow more beautiful. I think the perception of beauty really needs to change. It’s the subtleties of the soul that truly matter. You are a wonderful person—please look in the mirror and tell yourself, 'I am beautiful, I am wonderful.' It works wonders! By the way, I have those days too when I don't even want to look in the mirror either! 😁😁
Okay this gave me actual chills. Strangers who choose kindness like that just hit different, especially on a random day when you least expect it. I hope you hold onto that feeling for a while.

These kind of small exchanges do a lovely job to create a feeling of community. And for the record, you do look like a Disney Princess (still)!
Aw shucks. That’s very kind of you to say 🫶🏻
What a sweet moment to hold onto. Love your title as well.
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed 🫶🏻
These kind of small moments... oh wow how they make a difference!
They really really do!

🫶🏻 I agree! I do believe it has less to do with the outages as much as the inward. 🥹
