People standing at the bottom of a hill with a friend judged it less steep than people standing alone.

The longer they'd known their friend, the less steep it looked.

A good metaphor for life: even the hardest challenges can feel easier with a good friend by your side.

Many people manage to get through work and keep up with their responsibilities while struggling on the inside.

Don't forget to check in on the people you care about.
