Throw Me To The Wolves

I wanted to share something that happened today at the gym. I was in the middle of my workout when I looked over and saw a young girl sitting by herself, crying. She was trying so hard to hold it together, and it honestly stopped me in my tracks. I walked over, gently placed my hand on her shoulder, and told her that everything was going to be okay.

In that moment, I realized—I’ve been in her shoes before. I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed, to be quietly struggling while everything around you just keeps going. Maybe that’s why I couldn’t ignore it. Because I remember how much it meant when someone simply reminded me that I wasn’t alone.

The girl looked up at me, wiped her eyes, smiled, and then gave me a hug. It was a simple gesture, but it really stuck with me.
