You are also part of someone else's story. You have influenced someone in a meaningful way and left a mark on their heart. Perhaps you listened at just the right moment and offered sound advice. Maybe you spoke of a person's beauty when they were filled with self-hatred. Perhaps you befriended someone during their darkest hour or when they felt utterly alone. You are a part of someone else's narrative: someone remembers your laughter, your appearance in detail, your manner of speaking, your habits, and your tastes. Someone has seen you joyful, broken, or in love.

It's strange to realize this, but it's also incredibly beautiful.
