This isn't a "feel sorry for me","poor me" post.
This is about when faced with heartache,we pick ourselves up and keep swimming,showing kindness to people around us.The world needs more of it,more so then ever.
Despite the heartaches we face,never forget to talk to someone,never forget there are people who care about you.
Soo many people nowadays facing isolation from family and friends.
Take a moment call that friend you havent talked to in a while,maybe they are facing a battle you know nothing of.
Show kindness to the old man struggling to park,or the old woman being slow in front of in the shops.
The world needs kindness.
And most of all,keep swimming.

Great post Red. Sometimes the smallest gesture has the greatest effect on someone. It may be cliched but it’s nice to be nice. Even a smile at a stranger generally makes them smile back. Keep smiling Red you’ve already brightened a day  |

I’m seriously considering getting a mask with a massive smiling mouth on it
People can only see my eyes smiling these days
If nothing else it may give them a laugh at how ridiculous it looks 
Keep swimming - I love that phrase |

"I'm following this, kindness, manners, compassion and consideration for others cost nothing! Do to others as you'd like done to yourself!"
Agree!
I have to add and smile to people.  |

Yes Op it really does cost nothing to be kind and considerate. Unfortunately we can't do any about those who are not just look after ourselves and people who are nice. It is just so difficult right now for everyone, i talk to friends every day but today i am going to sit back and just relax not going outside and try be kind to myself. I can be so hard on myself at times and times like this i need to be good to me. Great post Op thanks. |

Fully agree, but women much more likely to keep in contact than men. Us guys have to look after our mental health, friend recently committed suicide and i wish had talked
“I’d rather listen to an hour or your issues every day for the rest of my life than a 15min eulogy at your funeral”
Stay safe everyone and reach out to people |

Nice post. We need more like these to remind people to be nice.
A saying I heard years ago and I will never forget it
“ it’s nice to be important but it’s far more important to be nice” |
