Sometimes it just takes a little bit of kindness to make your whole day better. Kindness from strangers is especially interesting because even though that person has no idea who you are, they decided to be kind. It serves as a reminder that yes, there are good people in the world. Share some of your stories!

I was living in a new city & just made a great group of friends. Shortly thereafter my dad got sick & passed away. These women who were complete strangers 6 months earlier, all reached out to me & shared their experiences and support.
I was in my 30's & felt like the only person in the world without a dad. 4 of my new friends also had lost their dads & knew just what to say so I didn't feel so devastatingly alone. It truly was my life raft that kept me above water.

Once I saw a homeless in a park. I asked him if he wanted some money. He didn't speak my language, so he took a sheet of paper and wrote a message in english saying " a certain smile for a while, for every little good receiving". Two years have passed since that day, I still have this message on the desk

Were on the road and my dad passed out, when he passed out he landed on the side of the steering wheel and we swerved off the road. there were rocks in front of us so we ended up flipping and landed upside down. But luckily there were people that stopped and helped us. Btw my dad is doing fine now.

This one time me, my four siblings and my mom were on a cross country road trip, and our car broke down in the middle of no where, and it was in the middle of the winter. We were stuck on the side of the road with no cell service and no other way to contact anyone. After about half an hour a sweet elderly couple stopped and used their phone to call a tow truck, and then they drove me ad my siblings (the tow-truck only had space for one other-person), to the auto-shop where our car could be fixed.

I was like, 1 or 2 years old, so I don't remember this, but my parents have told me about it many times. When we still lived in Texas (or California, I can't remember), my parents were strollering me along in our neighborhood when a really kind, old stranger came up to us. He was holding an old black dog plushie, and when he saw me his heart was really touched apparently. He talked to my parents and gave me the plushie, not needing it anymore. I still wonder about that old man and whatever happened to him. And I, of course, still have the plushie, and seeing as I'm on the autism spectrum, it helped a hell of a lot when I was feeling super down. Thanks, old man, wherever you are.

Me and my friend went to UDF and forgot masks...however there was a doctor there and she said: “Are you ladies out of masks? I have some! Im a doctor!” And we thanked her like 3 times! Then after that we forgot to count our money. And so then this lay paid the tax!!!! Our friend also took us a long way there even tho we could’ve just walked straight there! Heheh :,)

One time when I was about 8, I was at my neighbors garage sale, with some of my friends. And they had these super cute matching tea-cups. Each in a different color. And this nice lady bought one for me and each of my friends.

Once a couple years ago I was at our local nature trail with my family and it suddenly started raining really hard, like pouring. (We had walked) we started running home, me and my siblings were pretty little. About halfway down our street a man came out and offered us a ride home.

Did an internship in Ukraine, Kyiv, didn't speak any Russian or Ukrainian. On the bus were two boys who'd make fun of us (a group of four, all in their twenties) by talking English in a very silly way. A man, probably aged between 40 and 50, would tell the boys in English (for us to understand) that what they were doing was completely disrespectful and that they should stop treating guests like that. The boys stopped immediately, even after the man had gone off the bus.

Ok, I know it isn't that big of a deal, but I haven't forgotten it so here we go:
I was like 5, and was trying to pour myself some soda. I wasn't able to lift it, and was about to cry because I was a very emotional child, and this teenager dude, with a mohawk and leather jacket, comes up to me and poured me some. IDK why this has stuck with me, but it has.

I was riding my bike on a 30 km ride, when halfway through my tire went flat. It was in the middle of nowhere, starting to rain. I couldn't call my mom because my bike wouldn't fit in the car. and I was getting a bit scared. As i was standing there by myself, a van stopped and this elderly couple got out to ask me why I was standing there on my own. I explained what happened and they loaded my bike into the van and drove me home. They were the nicest people ever, didn't accept money and just wanted me to pay it forward. Will never forget it!

When I was four me and my sister where in a walk in for hours and i mean like five hours straight sitting and waiting. So this lady saw us and heard us complaining and she let us use her drawing tablet to draw while we waited. I to this day don't know who she is but I wish I could repay her.

A few years ago, I was going through the haunted house that my old school set up. During the walk (it was scary) I got choked by a stray spider web, losing my hat. Later, someone found the mask and gave it back to me (:

I forgot my wallet in the supermarket and was trying to install the bank app, when a stranger offered his wallet. Confused first 'no thank you I didn't loose my wallet', but then took the offer. When I got home I doubled the amount and donated foundation for poor people in my hometown (Amsterdam)

When I was younger, my mom brought me to a bookstore to get a book. I saw a pinkilishous (or however you spell it) book. We brought it to the cashier, but my mom had forgot her wallet. A amazing woman behind us, paid for it. Maybe because she was just being nice, but also because I was screaming my head off. Idk either way they are an amazing person.

I was at my dads one weekend and i got in another fight with my older brother. I decided to go for a walk to blow off some steam. As I was walking a boy that looked to be about a year or two younger than me and he must've seen I was in a pretty mood so he complimented my hair. It may seem like a small gesture of kindness but that really turned my day around. : )

I was in 1st grade at a new school with no friends. I told the teacher that I had to go to the bathroom and she said they would wait. Well, I went and came out and they were gone. There I was, a 6 year old in a new school with no friends and no idea how to get around. THANK GOD the librarian found me wandering around, and she walked with me to find my class. Apparently they were eating popsicles in the courtyard, and there was only pineapple left for me (I hate pineapple popsicles). I'm still thankful that the librarian saved me from a potential meltdown and a lot of embarrassment.
