Moments of Connection

Michelle GL

Sep 11, 2025

Life can feel busy and overwhelming but often it's the small moments of connection that brighten a day and remind us we're not alone. These moments may be brief, but they stay with us.

- A smile from a stranger: Sometimes it's as simple as a smile on the street, or a friendly "hello" from a neighbour. These little gestures can take seconds, yet they can lift your mood instantly. For me, a quick hello in the gym from a stranger can brighten a busy morning.

- Conversations that matter: Whether it's chatting with a collegue, sharing a laugh with a friend or having a heart-to-heart with family, conversations connect us in meaningful ways. Even short exchanges with students I teach online remind me of the joy of learning and sharing across cultures.

- Kindness in daily life: Connection also appears in acts of kindness.This could be holding the door open for someone, helping a pet owner at the clinic, or sending a quick message to check in on a friend. These small actions often create a chain of positivity.

- The power of presence: Sometimes connection isn't about words at all. For me sitting quietly on the sofa with my dog Twix or cat Tom gives a moment of calm and connection. 

Moments of connection don't need to be big or dramatic. They are often the little, ordinary things that make life feel meaningful. If we notice and appreciate them, we realise that connection is everywhere. 

What small moments of connection can you create in your daily life?
