I just read a heart-breaking article that was also inspiring and heart-warming. It included several responses to young women who are living with horrifying traumas of various kinds.
Snippets:
“In a girls’ bathroom stall at my university, girls have written about some of their most horrifying life experiences. This week, somebody replied.”
The reply, written on notebook paper, is anonymous.
Everytime (sic) I see these walls, these confessions, I feel so blessed to know I have the priviledge (sic) of seeing them. Your moments, these secrets, are all precious even though they are sad. To all of you (including those I did not mention, and those who have not yet written)
-You are worthy.
-You are strong.
-You are brave.
-You are loved.
-Somebody cares.
Written below that, somebody penned a quick response: “To the person who wrote this, thank you.”
Thank you, indeed.
Love,
Russ

Wonderful share…
Thank you. By the way, what name would you prefer that I address you as when communicating with you, if any?

Rob, Bulldog, Bull, I have been called so many things in my life I answer to anything… and so deaf now when I hear some one call in the malls I answer as well….
OK, bulldog, I’ll probably mostly go with Rob for now. Thank you for letting me know.
