about you as a person, what you did, and how has it impacted, or changed your outlook and attitude about the kind of person you are now?

This guy in high school used to seek me out almost every day to help him with his schoolwork, not to do the work but to explain how to do it. It was often a little irritating and the guy wasn't terribly bright but I didn't have the heart to turn him down. I did what I could and tried to be patient.
Ten year later I ran into him. He was working as a truck driver in a landfill but he thanked me very sincerely for all the help. He said he'd never have finished high school without the help and that he really appreciated everything I did. I was very touched and I remember it to this day, 20 years later. It made me realize how something that seems so small and forgettable to one can be so important to another.

"I am an old lady now, so I can say what I wouldn't dare say as a girl -- I like you very much!" a fine lady of 75, when I was about 36, after we had talked for about 30-60 minutes. And my daughter, aged 45, when I asked her if there was anything she was still angry with me about her childhood (all children have some anger they carry until it is resolved) said: "No Dad, I worked out what it was and saw that I had got it wrong". That confirmed my own confidence in her ability to deal with life capably, which is what every parent aims for.

I love you ........ and it was sincere and mature. A moment in time I became the most important person on the face of the earth to someone. My life took on a different importance and quality that is almost undefinable. It was a moment and sometimes longer than a moment but so rare and valuable because people so casually say I love you but that second when you connect and know absolutely that it is meant ...... So beautiful.

You are pretty for a...Black girl. Was supposed to be a well meaning compliment, but obviously one of the most racist things anyone has ever said, besides the n-word. I grew up in New York, and I wasn't called "n" or told this "compliment" until I went to Virginia. It was shocking to know people are still this ignorant in America.

Well a long time ago in a meditation I got an answer to a question that I ask.
I ask why are we here.
The answer was you are here because once I had a beautiful idea. An Idea so lovely, so perfect that I thought a part of myself to have enough individuality to see it's self as as separate, as a unit, as an individual, as you.
I did this so that I might have you to love, and so that I might have you to love me in return.
Love and blessings Don

Someone who did something nice for me said, when I asked him why he was so good to me, "because you're worth it". That came from someone I care about very much and for some reason, it changed my world. I think it's because it was the first time someone ever really said that to me out loud.

'I love you'. Every atom in my body felt electrifying great. Even if no other person ever says that to me, the one who did - well that's the one that counted.

My sister takes my kids out sometimes to other kid events.
The nicest thing I ever heard was.....
"everyone says your kids are so well behaved."
