22 - "Me, too."

The greatest comfort anyone has given to me in my time of struggle was when he said, "Me, too."
Even if it was said out of sympathy, and even if it was only for just a moment, I didn't feel alone anymore.
I don't know if it was because I was so desperate for some company (internal laugh), or if I needed a sense of unity, but hearing those words made me feel a connection to pull me through. It was enough.
I wish to be the person who gives strength and light for that one moment in the future.

  1. There have been so many days when I needed that.. the 'me too' friend. For the deepest and darkest, however, that friend is still a stranger.

    1. Isn't that why the comfort is only for a moment? Nothing seems to brighten the deepest and darkest.
