Wow. This is a true story, then? You said that your story “has no plot, and doesn’t work”, but I think you could make this into an interesting series, maybe writing down the conversations between you and Samantha.

Stories aren’t true or false. They just are.

Samantha exists, and I’ve wanted to put her into my writing for a while. She did give me compassion when I needed it. I do want to thank her.

For the rest, well maybe. It’s true enough.

True or not, its beautifully written and a wonderful reminder to all of us, what a little compassion can mean. Thanks, Kraken.
