Before We Were Strangers is one of those love stories that lingers. Told through the lens of a missed connection and a second chance, it follows Matt and Grace—once inseparable in college, then torn apart by time—who find their way back to each other years later. It’s nostalgic, emotional, and quietly powerful, reminding us that timing really can be everything.

ON CARRYING YOURSELF: Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far — Theodore Roosevelt

Be calm and respectful, but make sure you have the strength or power to back yourself up if needed. Rather than going around threatening or being loud, stay polite and reasonable, while ensuring that you have the ability to defend yourself or take action if someone pushes you too far.
