I was at a dentist checkup, and after telling me to "look happy" as he was going in with a pick, he later commented "you are happy, no one can take that away from you". I don't know if that was just part of the script or if he clocked that I'm not doing so great, but it brightened my day. I wish everyone an emotional support dentist.
Have you ever had a stranger unexpectedly brighten your day, or have you maybe been that stranger yourself? I'd love to hear your stories
