Can you make a person happy if that person is a stranger?

That's right... It's not really easy to be friends with strangers but it's not impossible. Making other people happy even if they are strangers can make us happy, too!

Well, I can! In little ways only though.. it may be me helping them or simply making small talk with them.. appreciating them. Sometimes, strangers are actually pleasant to chat with.

jannafaye I have made friends here at Gold Crest simply by learning to listen to a stranger just talk. so many of us are lonely as we have few people who come to see just us. so a willing ear is good to have and makes making friends easier too.' Just talk about the common things we all care about and the conversation takes off. and soon you have a new friend. like my dad once said in order to make a friend you have to be a friend first. and thats very true too.

No. I don't think so. Unless it seems like you would be good friends. I would say have fun with your own friends. Meeting people is a good thing. I think it would be good to meet a person at a church, or at a book club, or something like that. Like in positive things. Putting smiles on peoples faces is good. Some people have more talent for it than others.
