Stranger

Dear Delyara, I was struggling to carry my groceries and my toddler through the rain today when a complete stranger stopped to help. He didn't just hold the door; he walked me all the way to my car with his umbrella, making sure we stayed dry while he got soaked. We didn't even exchange names, but his kindness changed the entire trajectory of my day. I went from feeling overwhelmed and alone to feeling seen and supported. It reminded me that there is so much goodness in the world if we just look for it. I’m going to pay it forward tomorrow.
