Recognition.
I sit quietly and reflect upon the kindness of strangers and just how delicate life is.

At a moment's notice, life can change like the wind, and sometimes you won't have any other choice but to continue to breathe.

I see the light in your eyes, and I know the pain.

But hope doesn't forget.

And courage just needs a reminder.

That in the most desolate places you once inhabited, there was always the kindness of a stranger who gave you breath in those moments when you couldn't breathe alone.
