So today was shaping up to be another one of those awful, I hate everything sort of days when out of the blue my entire life was abruptly validated by another person.

Here's how it all went down-

I am heading to the bathroom when I am approached and stopped by a member of the public who states that he was told to come speak directly to me. So we talk I give him the best advice that I can on the matter he was sent to me about and then we have a short off topic talk and I get the reason he was sent directly to me.

He is a third party informant but what he said came directly from the source..... He was sent to me because:-

1. I am very intelligent.
2. The person who recommended me is in awe of how well I speak, how I remember the intricacies of my job and generally how well I can do it.
3. The person hates dealing with my work place in general but he welcomes dealing with me since I always know what I'm about and can give him what he needs with no fuss.
4. He genuinely likes me as a person.

Now it may seem silly and unbelievable but I do suffer from bouts of extreme depression and low self-esteem and for me to hear that someone I genuinely respect say those things about me made me very happy to be alive.

I spent the rest of the day in smiles.

I've never loved a man before but if I could I think that I'd love him just for building me up like that to someone.

Thank You! Dr. W. Smith you made my month.
