During a conversation with a close friend today I realized something I'd known all along but hadn't completely grasped yet. My friend had been through an extreme low in her life and had managed to pull herself out of it with the help of another. This person didn't exactly intend on helping my friend but his kindness played a major roll in bringing her back to a place of contentment. This person showed interest and said nice encouraging words. This made my friend feel good about herself when she hated the person she was. All the while this person didn't know he was helping, he was just being a nice person. That's all it takes! My subject line says it all.... Reach out your hands to support others! That doesn't mean you have to physically lift or carry anyone. Reaching out a hand could be anything...a smile, a kind word, a simple note. Is it soo hard to show kindness to everyone? Why does everyone today act like being nice is so unimportant that they can't be bothered with it? The littlest things can make the biggest impact. Just remember that.
I've felt so restless lately. I'm not content with anything. I'm tired of all my clothes. I want a new look. I need to ditch these cutesy duds for something with an edge. That sounds ridiculous but I feel like I've outgrown this look, my house, the people here, and even this town. I don't know. I just need something new. This town is cramped and I need to get out. Theres so much out there that I want to see. So many things I want to do.
