Normally I like to rant on and write long and in depth posts about things but sometimes it is just the simplest things that help the most. There is a wonderful quote by Plato that says, “Be kind for everyone Ты meet is fighting a hard battle.” It is a wonderful thing to remember when Ты go about your daily business because it reminds Ты that other people are going through similar pains and hardships.

It also can help Ты deal with situations where Ты can’t quite understand why a person is behaving so badly – it is because they too are fighting a hard battle of their own.

I would really like to hear some Комментарии about some small little thing that someone did that changed your день and made Ты feel happy and еще optimistic. I don’t care how trivial или strange it might seem – please leave a Комментарий so others can hear it and maybe use it to help someone else.
