JUST TRY.

Government offices. Waiting Rooms. Corner. Women. Late 40s. Crying. Walk up. Touch shoulder. “You ok dear, can I do something”. Look of astonishment. “No. It’s OK. Toothache”. “Do you want me to go get you some tylenol or something? Or maybe take you to a clinic?” Smiles. “No. I’ll be ok”. “OK” I move on and fill out my paperwork. Tears stop. Body language

relaxes. You don’t have to lift the entire burden from others. Every little bit helps.

Just fking try.

It’s all it takes.
