When Small Kindnesses Find You At Just The Right Time
By A Friend • July 31, 2025
A little while ago, I was having a rough week, feeling invisible and just worn down.
One afternoon I’d popped into a coffee shop, barely talking above a mumble as I ordered. But the barista greeted me with the biggest smile, complimented my earrings (which I’d worn on a whim), and tucked a note inside my cup that just said, “Hope today gets gentler for you.”
It was such a tiny gesture, but it cracked something open in me I realized how much difference a little recognition makes when you’re struggling. That day, just knowing someone took a second to pour a bit of kindness my way was enough to nudge me back into the world with a softer heart.
I paid it forward right after, buying coffee for the next person in line.
Sometimes the smallest kindnesses show up exactly when you need them most, in places you don’t expect.
