If you believe that there is value in reaching out to strangers, what might your gift be for doing so?
Most tell me that I can do this because I'm me. Probably so. But you're you........what can you do? A smile? Eye contact? Pay it forward? Listen? It only takes seconds to reach out. • • • What ideas do you have about engaging in this kind of behavior with a stranger?

Pam, you are one of the most welcoming persons I know. Your reach out to our family still brings peace and love when it is most needed. Thank you for that.

It has gotten easier with age and my profession as a nurse has given me the opportunity to learn how to listen actively. I find most people like to talk about themselves and it just takes a few questions to get them going. I love hearing the stories.

Michele, I can see you sitting with patients (and others) gently hearing their stories. You are one generous person. And I love your laugh!!!!!! I bet they do too.
