What is the nicest thing someone has ever done for you or said to you? Why did this mean so much?
I've been extremely lucky in my life to have lots of good and supportive people around me. To pick out the nicest thing someone has done for me or said to me is impossible.
Do I call out all the folks who helped me get into my current career field? Because there's a batch of them. There's two of my college professors in particular who encouraged me as a non-traditional student in my studies and did everything they could to help me succeed. Or how about the guys in the field who took the time to mentor me as I transitioned from student to employee.
How about all the people who have encouraged me in my writing? From the days when I was finding my words in poetry to now, when my stories pile on top of each other in my head. I won't name names because there are too many and I'll miss someone. (Let alone the reviewers who are kind enough to leave nice words when they enjoy my books. They mean a lot.)
There's the kind folks who pulled us out of a ditch and wouldn't accept any money as thanks. The co-workers who buy everyone's morning coffee. So how do I pick one?
Simple. I won't.
I appreciate them all, big and small. Big gestures are wonderful but sometimes it's the little things that get you through a day.
What's the nicest thing anyone has done for you? I'm on my way over to check out the other posts while I wait for you to leave a comment!
