Summary: Our encounters with strangers matter. They teach us to be open. To share the joy of being alive. To listen and learn. To find points of connection. They remind us of our own humanness. They remind us of everyone else’s humanness. They remind us we have more in common with other people than all the things that make us different. Our encounters don’t need to be big or grand to make a difference to the people we meet. Short encounters can have our hearts singing for days. In this episode, I share what I learned from my encounters last week with 5 strangers on a beach in Santa Monica, California. I start with the story of a stranger on a swing. Enjoy.
