Although she can't fix their problems，Steller believes she can help them feel less alone for a moment.Steller listens to people's stories of loss，addiction，and struggle to get back on their feet.The（8）DDobviously works.When she was cutting a woman's hair one day，someone drove by and shouted， "You look amazing!" Hearing this，the woman in the chair cried（9）BB， "I'm not invisible!I thought I was invisible.Look，people see me!"
Steller's simple act of kindness is starting to spread.Just as she says，the way we show up in the world（10）CC，and we have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that we give them.
