Stephanie Sammons - Make Me Believe

1. Make Me Believe
The truth is that both romantic and familial love can come with strings attached. Why do we bite the hand that feeds us? Why do we hurt the people we love? Why don’t we always do nice things for the people we love without expecting something in return? The COVID pandemic was also an era of self-preservation and, in some respects, brought out the worst in us. During that time, I felt like it would take a miracle for me to have faith in love again. Out of the blue, a stranger stopped to help me pick up groceries that fell from the bottom of the bag in the parking lot. That simple act of kindness stuck with me and helped to rejuvenate my faith in people.
