The mail could change everything.

It wasn't a bill.

It was a call to duty.

We were barely out of our teens.

The future felt uncertain.

We went to places far away.

We left our homes behind.

Life felt heavy on our shoulders.

We didn't have coloring books.

We didn't have safe spaces.

We had a sense of duty.

We did what was asked.

We carry those memories still.

This message still feels timeless!
Long after he passed these lines by Robin Williams still echo since they mirror everyday life at its most simple core Every stranger you meet carries a tale you may never truly know
Kindness costs zero yet it can transform everything 💛

UPS dropped off a package to our door. Recognizing that it was dropped off by mistake, I took it back to the UPS store who said that they could not take it back because the delivery driver dropped it off by mistake. They then told me that I could either deliver it myself or pay to have it shipped to the correct address. When I said that didn't make sense, they made it clear that they didn't care.?????
