Some people were important during a certain period of my life. Some stayed with me even later. Only with the benefit of hindsight do I realize how much those conversations, that help, and the time we spent together influenced me.
I don’t have to turn every encounter into a big lesson. There were also relationships I wouldn’t repeat. But I can recognize the good I received and thank the people who were there when it mattered to me.
Not just those I’m in touch with today, but also those whose paths diverged from mine, for whom my gratitude remains.
