Last Friday I posted this photo on Instagram…
A new Instagram friend read my caption with this photo:
“It’s Going to be one of those days. Grrrrrr!”
Awhile after posting the photo I laughed and flippantly added a comment under the photo:
“lol…guess it shouldn’t surprise me that no one likes this photo! Definitely keeping things real. Ugh.”
beesbutterfly {her Instagram user name} responded:
This sweet girl has no idea of what she did for me that day. As a matter of fact, she and many of you don’t realize how your small acts of kindness make an impression on me.
Sharing that photo Friday morning was a little difficult for me. I was opening up and being transparent.
I didn’t post it because it was a great photo, far from it. I posted it to share my frustration, to share me being real and somewhat raw. I mean, if you look at the photo of my laundry room on the sidebar to the right of this post, you wouldn’t have a clue that the room ever looks like the one above. {Which I’m not proud or happy about in the least.}
Anyway, I was pondering beesbutterfly’s words and a song came on that expressed what I was feeling. I decided to put together a little video with the music and lyrics. I dedicate this song to beesbutterfly and all of YOU who comment, reply and say things with EMPATHY.
Thank you for seeing me,
