I love what they've done with it

 

 

“Same,” she texted back.

 

Such a wonderful use of the word!

Short.

Concise.

Or as concise as I need it to be.

I can always add more words, but in my effort NOT to overshare, same is the perfect word. In my efforts to let the other person talk it all out before I say anything, same is a wonderful way of acknowledging their feelings, telling them I understand a bit about what they are telling me, and they are not alone even though they might feel like they are.

 

Daughter: Ugh. My head. Must be the weather

Me: Same

… and now we can go back to our respective resting/medicating/napping/pushing through

 

Son: Made the bills again this month. Yay.

Me: Same. PTL! LOL!

… and now we know we are both struggling financially, but God is good.

 

In a world full of words and images, same is a respite from the noise.

 

Are you weary of so many words?

 

Same.
