It Really Does Not Take A Lot To Be Remembered Forever By People If You're Kind

By A Friend on June 16, 2026 / 2,175 views

About a month ago I went to my local Miniso to pick up a gift for my little sister for her birthday. I got her a blind box and some tube of these rainbow sour stripes. As I was paying for it, the girl at the register mentioned to me that she'd been meaning to try them forever, but just hadn't gotten around to it. So, I grabbed another box off the shelf, and bought that too. As I was leaving, I handed...

Shout Out To The Wonderful Person Who Delivered The Package To The Wrong Apartment

By A Friend on June 15, 2026 / 2,364 views

So I came home from work tonight after finishing my shift and after dropping my coworker off at his residence because I have a car and he doesn't. At my apartment, I see a package. I didn't order any packages to be shipped to me for anything. I saw the package wasn't for me and which apartment unit to deliver it to. I have wanted to meet my neighbors so this was the perfect excuse to...

My Daughter Makes Me Paintings

By A Friend on June 13, 2026 / 2,085 views

I work in the trades so sometimes I have to leave home for weeks or months at a time. My daughter and my wife always make me little paintings like these, and my daughter helps me pack my bags and says "take these with you daddy so we will always be with you and you will always remember us!" I hang them in every hotel room and place I stay, makes what I do a little more bearable...

I Had A Flat Tire On The Side Of A Busy Highway With No Shoulder In A Pouring Rainstorm

By A Friend on June 12, 2026 / 2,360 views

I saw a car pull over and the driver get out and walk back to me. I had already jacked the car up and was in the process of removing the wheel. The driver of the car was not wearing any rain gear and insisted that he help me change the tire. At first I refused but he continued to insist and said that his wife had told him to come back and help me. I relented and allowed him to change the...

The Angel In Each Of Us

By Joseph J. Mazzella on June 11, 2026 / 2,489 views

A woman wrote me recently and asked me if I believe in angels. I answered: “Yes I do. I see them all the time. You just have to know how to look for them.” Let me give you an example. A few years ago during a bad patch of weather in the middle of winter I found myself sitting in my car in the parking lot waiting for my daughter to finish her grocery shopping. I looked out my window and...

Faith In Humanity Restored

By My2cents4sale on June 10, 2026 / 2,537 views

This happened in Los Angeles. Yesterday while running errands in the next city over, I inadvertently emptied the contents of my bag onto the street. Didn’t realize it until I was already almost home. I started tracking the airtag in my wallet and saw it moving around town, meaning someone had picked it up. I figured the cash was gone but I still wanted the wallet back, as it was a...

He Quietly Told Them To Get Her Everything She Needed

By A Friend on June 09, 2026 / 2,734 views

My dad was at the eye doctor getting his eyes checked, and while waiting to be seen overheard a young woman having a discussion with the optician regarding the glasses she needed versus what insurance would cover (very, very little) and she couldn't afford most of it. When they called my dad back to see the doctor, he quietly told them to get her everything she needed, and include a spare pair,...

Restocked My Towns Completely Empty Community Pantry

By A Friend on June 08, 2026 / 2,340 views

The little free pantry in my town was completely bare, and today I spent over 100 dollars on groceries and restocked it completely. We got canned goods, some kids stuff, baby foods, pasta, snacks, apple juice, everything we could think of. It made me feel so amazing, and the best part was as I was walking out I noticed a couple things were already gone as me and my boyfriend were driving...

Today Is The One-year Anniversary Of My Wife's Passing

By Sunny Skyz on June 07, 2026 / 2,446 views

Grief has a way of showing up when we least expect it. Sometimes, so does comfort. On the one-year anniversary of his wife's passing, a man accidentally spilled his water while walking into his shop. The shape it left behind felt like a message he needed to see that day. "Today is the one-year anniversary of my wife's passing. As I walked into my shop, I spilled my water. She...

Tow Truck Driver In NYC Escorted Me Through A Tough Intersection

By Calliope719 on June 06, 2026 / 2,371 views

Long story short, I was traveling to NYC and trying to catch a ferry to make it in time for a funeral. I was traveling about 600 miles to get there and between horrible weather and the travel I was completely exhausted by the time I got into the city. Missed my ferry (by 16 minutes) and had to go around. I was trying to cross five lanes of traffic from a left intersection in 1/4 mile....

The Reason Why My Wife And I Run Across Every Crosswalk

By A Friend on June 05, 2026 / 2,535 views

We were house sitting for my boss one year in their really cute walkable neighborhood. We liked going for walks to the downtown area of this neighborhood which was only a few blocks away but across a highway. For some reason, the first day that we crossed the highway we decided to run across. I suppose because we didn't know how long we had to cross and it was several lanes wide. For...

A Simple Interaction While Shopping Opened My Eyes

By A Friend on June 04, 2026 / 2,707 views

My significant other and I were shopping and trying to figure out what wine, and how much we wanted to spend on it for a recipe. There was a senior gentleman near me and I made some silly comment to him about it and asked him what he thought. At first, he just looked kind of shocked, and then his whole face just lit up! He smiled and joked right back w/ some funny advice. Just a small...

Came Across A Guy Stuck In The Ditch. Husband Decided To Stop Without Hesitation

By A Friend on June 03, 2026 / 2,640 views

I was just the driver in this scenario. Husband, 3 kids, and I were on our way home when we came across someone who had slid off the road in the rain. It's a road that only gets a handful of cars passing an hour. Immediately my husband asked if I minded pulling over so he could offer help. Dude had just missed a tree but was stuck in the brush. He was 20 at most, and looked like he...

Giving And Living

By Joseph J. Mazzella on June 02, 2026 / 2,603 views

I hope my new story here brings back wonderful memories of your own loved ones now in Heaven. God bless you always. For many years now I have tried to make a quicker version of my Nana’s homemade spaghetti sauce. And I have finally realized that there can be no shortcuts to success because no matter how many times I try, it always comes out thinner, more watery, and not quite as good. Nana...

My 4 Year Old Son Accidentally Started A Donut Economy By Being Kind

By A Friend on June 01, 2026 / 2,744 views

A little kindness goes a long way. We were sitting in the Dunkin drive thru around 6:30 this evening. (You hush. Mama needs her coffee. I don’t care what time it is.) The young lady at the window seemed exhausted and frazzled. My youngest son said, “Mom, will you tell her I love her?” I passed on his message. “My 4 year old asked me to let you know that he loves...

A Small Interaction With My Neighbor Completely Made My Morning And Reminded Me Why Community Matters

By Emily on June 01, 2026 / 2,477 views

I was walking outside earlier today feeling a bit overwhelmed and just stuck in my own head about all the things I need to get done. I probably looked visibly stressed out or distracted while walking down the street, completely oblivious to my surroundings. Out of nowhere, one of my neighbors who was out watering their garden noticed me, gave a huge wave, and paid me a really genuine, unexpected...

Kind Stranger Next To Me On A Flight To California

By Amanda on May 30, 2026 / 2,753 views

In March 2019 I was living in Austin, Texas and I jolted awake and checked my phone to see my sister called which if you know my sister that's not normal. I called her back and found out my dad had a heart attack and was headed to the hospital. I immediately book a flight and my mom (she was visiting me in ATX, they are divorced) drove me to the airport. I was a wreck. I'm super close with...
