Woman “Accidentally” Forgets to End Call Before Speaking About Daughter-In-Law

Even though we’re told we shouldn’t care what other people think of us, deep down, many of us still do. Wanting to be accepted and loved is natural, and it can be devastating to hear someone talk badly about us behind our backs.

Woman Experiences Full-Blown Panic Attack - A Stranger Takes Matters Into His Own Hands

After all, hurtling through the air at 38,000 feet in a metal tube can be daunting (to say the least). For one young woman, a recent flight had her anxiety soaring to new heights...and then a kind stranger stepped in. *Featured image contains photo by Hanson Lu on Unsplash
