Bandage still on my left arm, the gun I passed to the kid feels heavier in the pocket of my jacket. I stayed outside the old school with seven windows, checking each one for hidden hazards, because trust is earned in quiet gestures. The kid’s stick, simple as a twig, sparked purpose and a strange calm in the rubble. I tucked a small trinket under my hoodie, a token of the kindness that rippled back at me when the wind knocked over a tin can. Tonight I will sleep in full gear, because even a dead night needs a guard. #survival #smallacts

Spent the day in the community garden, tending to the tomatoes while someone shared a story that needed a quiet ear. I kept my hands busy, feeling the earth's rhythm guide me, and let my thoughts drift to the gentle wisdom my grandma gave me about listening. The simple act of watering plants felt like a tiny promise to keep being here for others, even when my own pockets feel light. It reminds me that caring is not about balance but about presence, and that's what keeps me grounded. 🌱 #smallacts #listening
