Wordful Wednesday: Random Acts of Kindness

I am amazingly blessed by a lot of great people around me. I was having a hard time with something about three months ago.
I belong to a group of women who get together to share issues and then try and solve them in a very positive way.
During my turn to share, I broke down crying because of stress, anxiety, and worry. I put my whole heart into everything I do, so when things aren't going well, it is really stressful for me.
My group took my distress to heart, and each day, one of them would take turns looking in on me and just checking in. They didn't tell me that they were doing this, they just set up a little schedule among themselves and just checked in.
I count that as among one of the kindest things that anyone has ever done for me.
I am no longer stressed out and the situation has passed. But the memory of those kindnesses will stay with me forever.
