You're Trusted

Something sacred happens when a person chooses you as trustworthy enough to share their personal story with. It's not just words that they are giving to you, its the essence of their being that is now yours too. 

I take it as a huge compliment when someone decides that I am worthy of their trust. Without any words passing, I know that they know that I will keep their words to myself. 

If you find yourself in a situation where someone is sharing, all you have to do is listen. It's not necessary to fix them. It's not necessary to compare stories. It's not necessary to judge. Just be the trustworthy person that they feel you are. <3
