The Daily Question

What was said to you
at exactly the right moment?

Somebody said one thing to you once and it has stayed put.

Not advice, usually. A sentence, and often a plain one. You will be alright at this. That was not your fault. I know. Get your coat, we are going out.

The odd part is the timing. A week earlier it would have gone straight past you. From somebody else it would have meant nothing. It landed because of where you happened to be standing that day, which means the person who said it had very little idea what they were handing you.

Most of them were never told. A fair few would not remember saying it.

So — what was said to you at exactly the right moment?
