Being shown kindness by strangers. Something as simple as a smile when they inadvertently make eye contact with me.
Another woman in the store recently asked if I could reach something for her, since I’m much taller, and I was happy to help of course. There wasn’t anything special really about that interaction, but it stuck with me just how normally I was treated in a world where some want us to feel like freaks.
