Experiment Day 13: Helping Others (Michelle)

Today has been a horrible day for me and I have been very upset already this morning.  I thought that I might not be able to help others today because I didn't even feel like I could help myself today.    But I knew that I could maybe help someone else that way they wouldn't have a bad day like I am today.  So I was walking to work and I seen that there was girl who was waiting on the bus to take her somewhere and she seemed very upset.  I had been crying and upset also and so I thought maybe we would both be able to feel better and we could help each other.  Lets just say that this conversation became a long one and afterwards we were both late to class and work, but we realized that sometimes when your having a bad day, finding others who are also having a bad day and talking with them and being a listening ear can make all the blues go away.  I honestly felt better and I couldn't believe that making someone else feel better and to be able to get their mind off of their worries would actually take mine away also.  Wow I just hope that both of our days can continue to get better.
