FastSaying

A friend came to me earlier with a problem, I had no time to listen but I made time. In the end, I saw myself in his shoes not that long ago and am so thankful there were ears willing to hear me. Be kind to someone today, everyone is dealing with their own struggles and lending a ear goes a very long way.
