A good feeling

A good friend of mine texted me earlier this evening and we hadn’t spoken for a little while so we proceeded to ask how the other was. She replied that she was listening to music and hopping around despite all the bad things in life. To that I replied that she should always keep her head up. She then told me that it was something she actually learned from me. I wasn’t sure what she meant so I asked her to clarify, and she said that she learned to keep her head up because of me. She later thanked me for it, which really made no sense to me and I couldn’t accept it. But personally, I feel really happy to have been able to leave that effect on someone, without really even being aware of it. It stands out, because for me, I’ve always felt that I could be perfectly satisfied without leaving a huge impact on the world just so long as I can help change someone’s life in a positive light. Sure, this isn’t life changing per se, but it just feels good to know.
