Community: Kindnesses that mattered

Each week, we gather our community’s wisdom. This week, we asked:

"I was crying on a bus and an old lady passed me a tissue with the kindest look on her face."

"Being patient with me as I learn new things."

"My family is kind enough to let me sleep in, especially when I had a long day."

"Being appreciated and validated by friends and loved ones."

"Initiative to spend time together."
