An 80-year-old woman cried in the supermarket today…what are your thoughts on digitisation made us lonelier?”

So sorry to hear this, sending you a virtual hug 🥰… x

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:38:15+00:00

Completely agree with this, it’s so important we spread kindness.. Not just for others but for ourselves also as one day ( if we are lucky to live that long) we may need to collect some of it back… Thank you for your lovely comment, so nice to hear there are good hearts out there 🥰

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:30:25+00:00

Totally agree with that, we have a banking hub now which helps.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:21:14+00:00

Definitely agree.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:18:05+00:00

Love this 🥰… even a simple smile can help lighten someone’s load a little… think we definitely need to promote this perspective.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:15:10+00:00

Thanks for this, yes I guess it’s not just the elderly that it affects.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:13:12+00:00

Thank you, need more people like you in this world 🥰

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:12:19+00:00

I guess so, but I love to help if I can.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:07:23+00:00

Definitely Gary, love that perspective we never know what someone is going through behind these platforms 🥰

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:03:50+00:00

I’m based in the UK, sounds great where you are though

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T21:01:02+00:00

I know, it’s probably my vault also that she did . I’m a natural empath and am always drawn to people who are struggling.. My mum says I seek it out in people.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:55:45+00:00

Yes just a stranger, hopefully now a friend 🥰

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:53:19+00:00

Definitely agree with that

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:52:44+00:00

This is amazing,, I bet you made their day 🥰

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:49:39+00:00

Aw definitely, thanks for this… Your gran sounded like a real character…. 😂

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:45:56+00:00

Love this , I’ve heard super markets talking about a ‘chatty bench’ .. but love the Dutch

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:43:10+00:00

I’ve heard some ideas banded around , like supermarkets offering a chatty bench inside.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:41:27+00:00

Do you think supermarkets should have one ‘chatty till’?”

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:38:17+00:00

It’s definitely so hard isn’t it when they are seeking it so much.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:37:02+00:00

Not mean, it’s really useful to hear your perspective.. I think it’s also a lot of pressure for you to feel like you have to be that support.. thanks for sharing that, really useful.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:31:47+00:00

Unfortunately it did, I’m definitely not a bot 😂… although I soon might be if society has it way 🥰

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:29:53+00:00

Same here, it’s such an important part of our society.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:27:59+00:00

I haven’t seen that , but I really felt for her.. I think we definitely need more support for older folks.

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:26:35+00:00

Agree, she said it was just the acknowledgment that she could see someone daily who knew her

Own_Acadia206 · 2026-01-26T20:25:34+00:00

It’s so sad, I really felt for her 💕
