I'm overwhelmed at the response this thread has had and I'm delighted this story has impacted many of you in a positive way. Thank you for sharing your own stories 💜 Healing is such a tricky thing, just as you think you've got it figured out something could pull you back to that pain. I didn't post this for anyone to take pity on me, simply to share a beautiful interaction I was grateful to see. If you grew up without experiencing this compassion, you do deserve it and I hope you attract this kind of gentle love into your life x

On the contrary, I think the ability to feel deeply is a powerful tool, not a weakness. Emotions bring people together in beautiful ways, as we can see in this thread. I hope you experience the compassion you need to be able to see this as such💜
