Over Diwali weekend I had an opportunity to connect with Nilam Auntie in Detroit to serve as Kindness ambassadors at the Net Impact conference. While there is much to share about that weekend, I wanted to share one special connection I had. DaChana came up to the table and showed me a handful of love letters she has written and wanted to gift. She shared how a few years ago she found herself in a hard place and unable to access social support or therapy, she began writing love letters to herself every day. As the letters manifested themselves, she realized the power of sharing her message and started writing letters and gifted them. She handed me letter #795 as a gift and I gave her a hug in return. A true reminder that small things can leave big impact. She is working on turning her letters into a book but currently has an Instagram page that is flourishing. You can find her at @blaydes_
