Tell A Mate Day

 A message from the heart, is at the heart of the poem The Day The Pub Whisperer Came To Town.

​See it here.

Today, September 15, 2024, marks the first #tellamate day.
​
It was a day I decided to call a mate I know, who has had his struggles, to tell him that I see his courage in facing dark times as a real strength.

He didn't pick, so I just left a message anyway.

Saying "I love you", or "I love this .... (fill in the blank) about you" can be a turning point for someone who is struggling to see the good in themself.

Perhaps an encouraging comment can make all the difference to just keep going when times are tough?

But make sure that if you do say it, only do so if it is genuine.

Maybe, you just never felt you had a good opportunity to tell them.
​
Give your self the courage to do it, without prejudice of what might come back your way.

Tell them at the pub, take a selfie together, upload it to social media and tag them, with #tellamate

Lets normalise telling those we love what we genuinely love about them!
