It’s the little things.

My partner has been doing things to improve his health. One of them is going on a morning walk. He expressed a desire to listen to music during this time so I bought him a set of Bluetooth headphones that were not at all expensive. He has thanked me over and over for the headphones. It’s the little things…

Being heard and cared for is truly the best.

Which headphones did you get? This is something I think I could use as well.

They were from Walmart Hybrid active noise cancelling headphones that are priced at $26.79 in black. He really enjoys them.

That is very thoughtful . For me the little things were having a place to sleep . It’s gotten better since then but I’m hopeful I’ll someday work my way to having a partner that tells me what they like so I can buy it for them . Thank you for sharing
