Witnessed A Stranger Comfort A Crying Person, And Now I’m Also Crying

By a friend • March 30, 2026

I took my dog to the park and we posted up at a respectful distance from a young man who was already there.

After about ten minutes he gets up and moves further away, then starts absolutely wailing. I mean like full body sobs, we all know the kind.

I’m trying to mind my business while also wondering if I should check on him when I see another man walking his dog approach. They talk for a minute, and then the guy with the dog gives him a huge hug and a pat on the back before continuing his walk.

So yeah, now I’m sitting here writing this while quietly blubbering lol.

I just felt like talking about this. Let’s do our best to look out for one another.
