The Simplest Act Of Kindness Can Often Be The Most Profound

By a friend • May 2, 2025

Today I had an interesting interaction in the restroom at Walmart. I was coming out of a stall, and a very elderly lady (assume late 80's, early 90's) was coming in.

I simply said, "Good morning." She took my hand in both of hers, and said, "Thank you for speaking to me."

If you see an older person, don’t be shy—say hi. It might seem small to you, but it could mean everything to them.
