Write a letter to a stranger who positively impacted your life 3 hours, 14 minutes agoA Fragile Smile
Jaclyn IsisAt first, he asked me if I was okay. I guess my empty expression could be read from a mile away. I hadn’t realized I was walking around with a story on my face. I quickly nodded but within that nod was a cluster of confusion and self-doubt. I didn’t look at the homeless man, not because of fear or disgust, but because he knew something that I d…read more

I don’t know if you will remember me, but I wanted to let you know, I will never forget you. I was the young mother trying so desperately to survive. Hands holding on to my two little boys, and a car seat at my feet, and had my little ones so closely by my side as I checked into the hotel.
I was exhausted and I was terrified. I think you saw…read moreVoting starts August 16, 2023 12:00am

Michelle, this story was profound. The acts of kindness shared here are remarkable. I thought it was going to end at the register, but you kept receiving daily gifts of love and appreciation. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that some people can be so KIND when others are so selfish. I am grateful for your stranger too, for it reminded me that when…read more

Mikaela PattersonDear stranger,
To the kind lady at Target who bent down to tie my shoe because you understood too, how hard Motherhood is. You saw me balancing a baby on one hip, all while trying to checkout and make sure my autistic two year old didn’t take off in the opposite direction ( as he so often does.)
You didn’t watch me struggle and pass me by, you…read more

Daniellas EmpressDear Empress ( ME),
I connect with the stranger who is myself everyday. WHO AM I !? What am I granted to see and profound to be. Freewill but with a spiritual insight guided by the universe. I had a role to play but it wasn’t the same, I played myself but with other character names. I didn’t realize that I was playing more than one side. I would…read more

Crystal MulliganDear Stranger,
While I never knew your name, I always felt I knew you. I always felt like there was something you had to teach me. I think of our encounters fondly and often. You see when I moved into my apartment I wanted a sense of community. I wanted to know my neighbors, in typical New York fashion they didn’t seem to want to know me. That i…read more

It’s wonderful to know that universal man had played a role in encouraging you to step out of your comfort zone and embrace the world more as an introvert. Recognizing your own potential and realizing how amazing you are is a powerful realization. Remember, you have unique qualities and strengths that make you special.

I appreciate you for everything you’ve done, because I saw the light in you as you saw the light in me, we transformed together, and as I write this letter I wish you were still here with me.
I thought love was a game, full of fantasies that could never be.
The saying “home is where the heart is” is true, and my heart chose you.
