Unsolicited information

It's heart-warming to know that you may have unwittingly helped others in some ways, or let other people see a different perspective in life. Or you may have comforted them without trying not knowing that they may have troubles.

It's a bit surprising when people give you some information unsolicited. Some will tell you that they may want to do major things in life, yet you are the first person to be told of such information. You haven't even seen their faces, and yet they would tell you such information with ease and comfort.

Some can even tell you details on why they feel comfortable telling information that are only afforded to a close friend. Usually we refer a close friend for someone we know for quite sometime and can confide with, and can be a company to find comfort.

You would feel oblige to keep the information confidential coz you were privileged to know. Though there are times you will feel pressure when other people ask for contact numbers or msn address or some other stuff, and you were told to keep information to yourself... hmm...

And you may wonder why people ask if something has gone wrong with you when you don't even ask or tell. Somehow, others can sense that you were bothered or troubled. Such gesture is highly appreciated and can give some comfort.

Telling unsolicited information (confidential/personal???) to someone breaks down the barrier to make people comfortable to each other.

Lesson: Reap what you sow.
