Everyone is dealing with something. Don’t let them deal with it alone.

I do not have much more to add to that statement other than I know it’s not often that easy or simple. I know it’s not easy to open yourself up to someone else’s pain and struggles. It’s particularly hard when the struggle is self inflicted.

But someone going it alone is far worse.

Sometimes that simple look-you-in-the-eye “Are you really okay” moment with a friend, a coworker, a family member is what it takes for someone to finally open up.

It could be how their healing begins.

Don’t let the moment pass to open dialogue. At least that person will know you are there.
