“Unforgettable Words: Discover the Heartwarming Secrets Behind 57 Life-Changing Conversations”
I didn’t think much of it at first, but when I was alone later, I broke down and cried for a few minutes. I didn’t even realize how much I’d been carrying all my life until that moment. It was a relief I can’t really describe, like a weight was finally lifted off my shoulders. I felt lighter, like I physically weighed less.
My boyfriend once asked me to help him understand a certain topic, and it was a busy time for both of us, i had long hours of school and so did he. I could only teach him a very little portion which wasnt even countable in a span of 2 hours. I apologised to him saying i couldnt help him(he had a test on it the next day). He said “You tell what’s better? A person giving the 1K out of the 1K they had to someone in need, or a person who gives 1K out of the 1Mil they have?” i said i dont know since i didnt understand what he meant. he said “it’s the former since the person gave away all they had, and in the same way, you had 2 free hours which you could have used to sleep(we were sleep deprived), but you chose to help me. and that’s all that matters to me” and it’s the best thing i’ve ever heard.
I’m a mental health nurse. I was with my brother in a mall one time when an ex-patient walked up to me and greeted me warmly. We chatted about how his life was going. He seemed to be doing well. He said to me, “Hey do you remember that time when you had to restrain me and put me in seclusion? You were really gentle with me and got everyone to calm down and go easy on me”. He turned to my brother and said “Your brother is one of the good ones”.
My good friend told me a few weeks before he succumbed to cancer that he was glad he knew me because i was “One of lifes good guys”
That was 6 years ago now and i still think about it.
