Strangers’ Small Acts That Changed Lives Forever: Stories That Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity
It’s kind of sad to say how thrilled I am that nothing untoward or pervy or anything weird happened other than that a very nice man gave me a ride home. I had his business card and sent him a thank you note to his office. I will never, ever forget that extreme act of kindness.
A Native American from a local tribe gave me a homemade leather pouch with a natural remedy inside and said, “For the anxiety”.
I was on break, at my first job. It was so thoughtful.
Last summer I and a random dad with his son was waiting for the same local bus outside my towns biggest grocery store.
15 min after the bus should have arrived the dad started to complain, me too, where the f**k was the bus?! So we actually looked at the d**n bus schedule and we realized that we had missed the last bus. So for me it was around 1h walk home, for the dad and his son was it 2-3h walk home.
The dad asked if I wanted to ride the same taxi home. I explain and said to him that I could take my own taxi(taxi is expensive af here, 10-15min ride is 20 dollars) since I lived x and they lived y.
“no no no” said the dad “we should share, it’s better for the environment” so I said ok. I was fully prepared to pay my share of the ride, but when it was my time, the dad said “no no, you don’t need to pay anything”. I was stunned of his kindness, “are you sure” I asked over and over. And he said “yes ofc it’s ok”. So I thanked him, got out from the taxi and walked home. In awe of his kindness.
