Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.

-I was going through a rough patch in the fall of 2004. I was working in security at a small college and had lost my grandparents and an uncle in the span of 11 days.

I was walking through a building on campus on New Year’s Eve. I was closing it for the evening after a big event. As I came around a corner to a long hallway, I saw this beautiful brunette walking towards me. She winked at me and said, “It’s going to be a good year.”

That kindness from a stranger helped me to start to climb out of my depression and turn my life around.
