Most meaningful email EVER?

I'm still wrapping my head around an email I got tonight. I'd like to talk about it, but I'm not really sure how to approach it without sounding self-serving, being exploitative, or violating privacy. But I wanted to at least note it as having happened tonight. It meant more to me than I could ever possibly put into words. Kind gestures can alter lives, people. They don't take much time, but can mean the world to the person at the receiving end of them. Even if you're a stranger. And the gratitude you get back can be equally rewarding. But you need to be attuned to other people's hardships first. This is all obvious, but we forget it...get caught up in our own shit. This may be all I ever write on this wonderful email I got. It was incredible, though. Open your eyes to the hurt around you and let someone know that you care. That's all they may need.
