Well, I had a very difficult and violent childhood. Me and my two siblings did not have the typical parents/kid moments. My parents both beat us, sometimes so hard that we could not go to school, I even got a splinter of my glasses in my Versand couldnt see for weeks because my mom threw something to me that broke my glasses.
Me and my siblings, we all moved out really quickly as soon as we grew older and saw a possibility to leave.
The mom of my best friend, who helped me getting out of there (its been nearly 20 years ago since i moved out) said recently: "Well, looking at your childhood and all you went trough, you became such a loving and amazing person, I am so proud of you".
I dont think she understands how much that meant to me. After all, I'm proud to be myself and never want anybody to go through what i went through.

Not words but hugs, and at work, no less. I'm a public servant, and do my best to hear people and connect them to the resources they need. Sometimes even those who came to me VERY angry or frustrated will be hugging me before we're done. To me, that's much better than words.

I remember in second grade when learning about Ruby Bridges our teacher was talking about how Ruby had silently walked to school with many people surrounding her and yelling terrible things to her. Our teacher had talked about the bravery and confidence that it took to do what Ruby Bridges had done to make that history. Our teacher then asked who would have been brave enough and strong and confident enough to have done what she did. The majority of the class had raised their hand to this including me. And then right then and their my teacher had said in front of the entire class that the only person she thought would actually be able to do it was me. And that I will forever remember.

A music teacher told me her personal story and she said, " You are one of the very few people that I can tell this to." It warmed my heart and she is my favorite teacher and she is wonderful.

My current boyfriend: he had been living in our state for two years and he had no real friends. I met him online and we started talking. I listened more than I talked. Later after we had started a relationship, he told me that my kindness to him at the beginning of our knowing each other, helped him not to commit suicide.

I have blonde, naturally curly hair. And so everyone I see says they "would do anything to have hair like mine" and they wish "we could trade hair". It does get annoying, but it does boost my self-confidence, at least for that day.

Let's just say I was having... not the best day ever. I probably had a frown plastered on my face (of course, that was not uncommon, for me). Anyhow, I was walking along and one of my classmates went over to me, looked at me and said, "You're happy, today!" I'm not sure exactly why, but I suppose something in my head must've gone, "If you say so..." because the rest of my day was great.

When corona reached my town I decided to share my phone number with all of my neighbours so they can call me and I will get them medications and groceries. In my street there are 10-12 building that are mostly occupated by seniors without kids who could help. That kind of help is unusual in my country, we are very friendly but not in thay way.So when I told my mum what I did she didn't say anything, like it wasn't a big thing.She got up to go to the kitchen, patted my head and said 'ti si bas dobro dete pile' ('you are a good kid chicken'). It is not much but her face and teary eyes gave weight to that sentence. It was so cute because I'm 25 and her expression was soo sweet. We are very close and this confirmation is so different then pride you see in your mum for good grades or chores or something like that. Made me so happy

This one was very recent. I was feeling anxious (because CORONAVIRUS) and my mom wrote me a note--so yes, nobody actually said this to me but I think it still counts. The note just said "Everything is going to be okay."
