RE: Today, a stranger touched my life...

in Silver Bloggers3 years ago

Hi Sam! This is very touching, and it is such a blessing to be able to touch someone's life even with a little gesture. The time you gave him to talk must have been precious to him. He surely tells little of his sorrows, even though he lives them every day.

Losing a life partner is hard, my dad died 15 years ago and I still see how his absence affects my mum every day.

And I also feel lucky for what I have, and it's not that we don't have problems or difficult times, but having our loved ones to hug and enjoy the things in life that sometimes seem simple but are the ones that count in the end of the day is priceless.

I hope you meet Jamie again.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, Eli. It's true, at the end of the day it's the family life that Jamie is missing most of all... his wife, and spending quality time with his children. It makes us appreciate what people sometimes take for granted, and then we hold and hug our own just a little more tightly... and spend that extra time with them. !LUV
