I admire the carers so much as well @Faith-and-Hope to sit with and support those with MI so lvoingly and faithfully despite the pressures it places on them - that is just as inspiring to me as those that live with MI - we all have a massive place in these struggle and we all do such a valuable job in helping each other.

We found each other @Faith-and-Hope - and that is a daily joy for me no matter how I am feeling

Well that was quite bizarre .... in a good way, but still .....
So here I am, sitting in the coffee shop finger knitting and chatting with you @Zoe7, and a lady comes up and asks me asbout the finger knitting .... so I show her how it’s done, and sh loves it. She is now inspired to try it out and has gone in search of a ball of wool ..... but before she goes she asks if I am a reader, and when I say that I am, she asks me if she can giv me a boom to read, then pass on to a stranger, because that is what the book was bought for by a friend of hers .....
So here I am with a new book to read, and having had a lovely chat with someone in a random, heart-warming encounter ......
And in looking up the finger knitting link I cane across this -
Finger knitted butterflies 🦋 💕
And I forgot to mention that the new friend I made for the city historical walks apparently paid for my breakfast yesterday morning ..... that was what I was told when I went to pay .....
How lovely is that ??!
Strangers offering random acts of kindness to others. Such a beautiful thing.
