A letter

Dear Yoga stranger,

Thank you for kindness the other day.  I was very nervous to go to a class but felt like I needed to exercise.  I was explaining the whole cancer thing to the instructor and when I got to the part where I don't know when i'll have to do radioactive iodine you just come over and hugged me.    You didn't say anything and it was a brief hug but it was enough.    In our world of technology a hashtag or little heart symbol can only do so much.  So thank you.  That hug buoyed me up and kept be going.  And thank you for sending a smile my way when I snuck out only lasting a little while.
