Man, your day really takes a turn when an elderly man on the street grips your hand hard and uses the back of it to wipe tears from his eyes because you've treated him like a human being. It is... very hard to focus on the little grievances and sorrows when so starkly reminded of how touch- and basic-decency-deprived so many of us are.

(Hug your loved ones. Laugh & cry with your neighbours. And be kind with yourselves.)
