By A Friend on June 06, 2019 / 3,036 views

Today, a man alone at the restaurant I work at took care of a bill for a party of 17 next to him that was mostly kids and 5 or 6 adults. He was not in my section but I figured I’d help out my coworker and see if he wanted to pay since she was very busy. I asked if he was ready for the bill after his meal and he said "Can you keep a secret? Give me that tables bill and don’t tell...

I Am Finally Happy

By A Friend on May 30, 2019 / 3,536 views

I'm 28(M), and for the first time in my adult life I am completely happy and at peace. There were so many times I wanted to give up but didn't out of fear of hurting other people or causing them problems. But now as I sit writing this, I own my own home after years of financial mistakes, I have had a job for the last year and a half that I'd kept applying for every year for seven years, and by...

By A Friend on May 30, 2019 / 3,054 views

My cousin passed 2 years ago and she was the sister I never had. A year after her death I was drinking alone and lit a bonfire at my place. I was a mess and scrolled through my phone. I realized I still had her number so I called it. She was always low on funds so had a burner phone with a number that would pass on when her phone was no longer in use. I called this # not thinking anyone would...

Birthday Party

By A Friend on May 30, 2019 / 2,632 views

So, a couple of weeks ago my family found out that my Uncle has stage four brain cancer. I was very upset with the news as I have lived with him for the past nine years. About a week later, May 12, was my B-DAY and I really didn't want to celebrate it with all that was going on. I just got me some cupcakes and went to my friends house to watch GoT. At some point during the evening, it slipped out that it...

Motivation From A Stranger

By A Friend on May 28, 2019 / 3,578 views

A week ago I started running again for the first time in over a year. I've been pushing myself hard every single day. Today I was running on a trail, and I passed a guy. He made eye contact and gave me a thumbs up. I was running back, and I passed him again. This time he said "keep it up buddy." I dont know why, but that was like rocket fuel. I was almost blown up, but that got me going and I...

We loaded our things and got on our way home... on the way down a busy street (St. Charles Rock Rd.) We passed this man trying so hard to get his wheelchair off the main road. We pulled in and asked him if he needed help, he said...

By Erin on May 22, 2019 / 3,029 views

My dad passed away yesterday and I am processing everything. His illness was really terrible for a long time so even though we knew it was coming, I'm still in shock. It's hard to try and find positivity in my pain, but my Dad taught me so much when he was healthy, and when he wasn't. I wanted to share some of the lessons, because he deserves to remembered for what he taught me, in sickness &...

In The Now

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 22, 2019 / 3,927 views

When I was a boy I dreamed of my future. I was going to be a cowboy. I loved all the old westerns on television. Then I dreamed of being a sailor and a soldier and fighting epic battles. After that I dreamed of being a fire fighter and rescuing people from burning buildings. I just couldn't wait to grow up and be an adult. Then I went to college and those dreams changed. I thought I would be a...

I have a boy in my class who comes in every morning with messy hair and every day I comb his hair for him. T his morning when I got done he gave me the biggest hug and said, "Thanks Ms. Boyd, my mom is sick and can't brush my hair anymore, so I'm happy you do it." I literally started tearing up.

Sub Shop Kindness

By Beth on May 13, 2019 / 3,423 views

In Glen Arbor, Texas, my family of 6 stopped at a small sub shop. The worker struck up a conversation with us and asked us what we were doing for the day. We explained that we were thinking about going to a wildlife nature park in which you must remain in your car for a self-guided tour, but it was fairly expensive and wondering if it was worth it. He said that he had gone there several...

Nice Gestures From A Stranger

By A Friend on May 09, 2019 / 4,422 views

This was several years ago, but I remember this kindness very clearly. I was at a Jiffy Lube one morning getting an oil change for my car, and an older man with a heavy Southern drawl came in. They were busy, so after ten minutes or so, he starts up small talk with me. I find out he's from Texas (I was in MO at the time), traveling with a construction crew. I jokingly say "You must make...

Elbow Bump At Taco Bell

By A Friend on May 07, 2019 / 4,102 views

While I was eating my delicious chalupa, I noticed an elderly man walk up to the counter to talk to one of the employees. He looked to be in his 70's, possibly 80's. I couldn't see which of the 3 employees he was talking to, but the old man and the employee did an elbow bump. An ELBOW bump. They even blew it up after! They exchanged a few more words, then the elderly man grabbed a refill...

When I was a boy our extended, immigrant family would sometimes gather together at my Great Aunt’s tiny house over the summer. Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the living room, around the kitchen table, and on the front porch to talk and catch up on each other’s lives. All of us kids would be sent out into the front yard to play while...
