Taylor Swift helps fan deal with back-to-school fears

Taylor Swift calmed down an emotional follower on Tumblr last week by encouraging her to reach her dreams. The fan shared her fear of going back to school and got the surprise of her life when the singer herself replied to her to give her the encouragement she needed.

Even though the “Shake It Off” singer is busy travelling across the country for her "1989" tour, she did not forget to interact with her fans on social media. She specifically took time to share some wise words to a fan with apprehension over going back to school. Late last week, Swift read a message on Tumblr from a fan who is worrying about going back to school. According to the fan, she is worried about being alone again, but also expressed that she is excited that Swift would at least be in her area soon. The girl did not expect Swift would actually be able to read it, let alone reply to her.

First, Swift responded on how sad she feels that the fan is being apprehensive over the future because of some doubts and fears. However, she said the fact that the future is so unpredictable is the reason it is thrilling. She then proceeded to praise the fan by claiming she is far better than friends who flake or people who put down others. "Knowing your worth sometimes comes without any proof at all. You're worth more than flaky friends and people who dismiss you or underestimate you. Sometimes it seems like that's all you get, but it's not all you'll ever get,” Swift wrote.

The fan, who got to read Swift’s reply in the wee hours of the morning, shared that she was absolutely shocked by the care and attention she received from the renowned singer. She also said she is very grateful for Swift's nice words because it helped her.

This is not the first time that Swift made her fans happy in her own personal way. She has a track record of buying a fan a Mercedes, crashing a wedding bearing gifts and giving a troubled fan a care package.

Ally Moronese, a fan troubled by the idea of moving out of her childhood home, posted her feelings on Tumblr and also got the surprise of her life when the Grammy-Award winning singer commented on her post with “thinking of you.” She was further shocked when she was contacted by Taylor Nation, an anonymous but verified Twitter account that posts all related things about Swift. The direct message asked for Moronese’s address and just a few days after, Moronese got a care package containing some stuff for the new house she is moving in to as well as some personal and fashion items. The fan was beyond elated and grateful.
