Even Just One

A famous writer said: "If all my writings have been beneficial even to just one individual, I would consider myself successful." I love these words and I quote them often. I believe them to be utterly true. In fact, what is the meaning of our life if we can't be or (worse) don't care to be "useful' to another? There are so  many ways in which we can offer our help or - simply - our service. A deed, a word, a paragraph like this, a gesture, a smile of ours can have great significance for someone else. It might make them feel accepted, cared for, loved, at the moment when they need to be reassured. No one is so strong as to never need a helping hand, a listening ear, an inspiring word.
