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 running a 5k race by myself when I was 10. it was really cold and the road I was running on was covered with cracks. there were a lot of people that were a lot older than me and I was scared and alone. I started the race fine but when I got near the finish, there was a part on the road that had a huge hole. I didn't see the hole and I fell. I was by myself and I was now hurt. but then a bunch of the other runners stopped and helped me up and made sure I was ok. they asked if I had someone with me and I said no so they ran with me to the finish. my leg was bleeding a bit so they stayed with me until I got my leg wrapped up and I found my family. I won't forget those 2 women and 3 men that helped me

Not me but my mom. She was pregnant with my brother (before I was born) and had lost her wallet. She was waiting in line to get food when she realized this. A super nice homeless man gave her his last dollar and insisted she buy some food. Many years later, she saw him again, and gave him a hundred dollars for his one. We still see him a lot and he still remembers my mom.

When I was little, some older children were bullying me. A stranger came in and explained why it's not right to do so and said that it probably means that they themselves have some trouble in their homes or something like that. So they got embarrassed and stopped. I was and still am thankful for that.

I was bullied mentally and physically at school by one girl in particular (never had many friends because I was - and still am - fat and they didn't want to be near me). She contacted me through facebook recently - we left school in 1989 - and told me both her parents were sexually and physically abusing her and bullying me was a way for her to feel better about her situation and apologised for her behaviour. While I accepted her apology I can't quite forgive some of the things she did. And she only apologised because someone's doing the same to her daughter and she realised how I must have felt.

This a lovely story but in the UK this got a lovely lady sacked. She had worked in the bakers shop for over 30 years and they became a card only shop. But some older people did not have cards so she was taking the money and paying with her card the manager saw her and she was sacked. The baker once this was in the newspapers lost a lot of trade.

I was in the bathroom at Cici's pizza and assumed i was alone. I looked at myself in the mirror and said "Oh, gosh. I'm a depressed mess." An employee stepped out of the stall and she said "No you're not. Were you crying?" Me: "Yes." Employee: "If it was because of a boy, he ain't worth it."

I was 11 or 12 years old, and me and my family were going camping, but we wrecked on the interstate. The car flipped twice and landed on its side, and the camper was strewn all over the interstate. A bunch of cars pulled over and people began lining up to help us get out of the car. They knew they couldn't wait for the professionals to get us out of our car because they were afraid it would roll down the hill with us inside. We climbed through the side window one by one (there were ten of us, me and my parents and my seven siblings) and they lifted us down to the ground. We were all in shock, but these complete strangers were just holding us and hugging us and telling us it would be ok. They stayed until the ambulances arrived. It was probably one of the most comforting things I've ever experienced.

When I was a teenager, I was on my way to my dad's house, and had to drive through the country to get there. I was low on gas, but I had no money, and I figured I could make it there in time to hit my dad up for some gas cash. I guessed wrong, and my car died. So there I was, a teenaged girl, stuck on the side of the road, in the middle of nowhere, and it was getting dark. BTW this was in the 80s, so no cell phones yet. I was really stranded.

A family pulled up and asked me what the problem was, and I explained. They lived on a nearby farm, and they had a fuel pump for their farm equipment. They brought enough gas in a gas can to get my car started, and then they insisted that I come over to their place to top off the tank. They seemed genuinely embarrassed when I thanked them profusely, saying, "Ain't nothing, that's just the way folks are around here."

I was going through a very difficult time because of life events. All of my friends turned away from me when I needed help the most. Someone referred me to a Church that might be able to help with food. I broke down crying while telling the Pastor my situation. He excused himself and said he would be right back. He returned a few minutes later with several bags of food. All these years later, I still remember his kindness.

The same thing happened to my partner and I earlier this year. We got evicted due to an extrememly large car repair bill we had no choice but to pay- either we lost the house or our jobs (needed the car for daily commutes.) We had to go to a church for a food parcel, my partner just lost it and I felt so helpless. I had experienced homelessness many times before due to an unsettled life but he hadn't.

In college, living in a house by myself, got nearly 2 feet of snow. Had 2 days of classes cancelled, but needed to go in by the 3rd day. Had no choice but to shovel the long driveway by hand. Started by the road (state highway so busy and edge piled high with salt-crusted snow/frozen slush). Someone driving a pickup with a snow plow was about to drive by but stopped and said "that looks like hard work, let me." He plowed the whole driveway, for free! Was done in less than 3 minutes, would have taken me all day!

I was at a party and was sitting off by myself. I didn't really know anyone and I have a really hard time talking to new people. This other girl comes up and starts a conversation with me and introduces me to her group of friends. We are all still friends. I have trust issues and don't make friends with people my age easily, so what this girl did helped boost my confidence and self-esteem ENORMOUSLY. I didn't really have any friends before this except for one or two.

Last week I was coming home from a funeral for my 21 year old nephew. I was just numb. I decided to stop at the store and get something to eat later. I parked, ran inside and spent about 45 minutes looking and trying to shake the day away. I went to pay for my item and found my wallet was not in my pocket! I left the item I was going to buy and ran out to my car, utterly freaking out wondering where/what my wallet, with everything in it, had gone. As I got to my car I saw the door was open and things were laying all over the ground. My heart sank. I'd been broken into. Did I leave the door unlocked? As I got a few steps closer I saw a tall, skinny man standing there. Then I got scared. I was far away from the store and no one was around. The man called to me and asked if this was my car and I said yes? He explained that he'd been in his car, opposite me, when I had left and when I closed my car door the seat belt had gotten in the way of the door closing, and it didn't close. He'd gotten out to close it for me and then saw my wallet had fallen on the ground, and he saw a credit card laying there. He had stood there this whole time guarding it, making sure no one took anything and he was careful not to touch anything. He had just waited for me to come back. To say I was stunned and incredulous is an understatement. 45 minutes this man had just stood there, for me, a stranger. Everything I had was there for the taking and if he wasn't such an angel he could have had and trashed my whole life as my driver's license, some money, credit cards, my ATM card were all there. I thanked him 100 times and he kept smiling, like it was nothing. I told him he was my angle and he said, "just pass it on"

When I was probably around 10 or 11, I went into a coffee shop by myself (mom was outside with the dog) to get orange juice. They had freshly made orange juice at that particular place, so it was in bottles which the person working the counter would pour into a to go cup for whoever ordered it. When the girl working there was pouring my juice, what was left in the bottle just perfectly filled he cup, leaving the bottle empty. I don’t know if this was a real policy or not, but she said “Oh, looks like the bottle ran out, so I’d better just give this to you for free! Have a nice day!” I was super flustered because I was already anxious for having to order for myself so I just said thanks and ran out to my mom (she made me go back in to tip her haha). I don’t know why, but it still sticks in *my* mind after all these years, and she probably forgot about it by the next week. I guess that’s the thing with doing small things for people; there’s no reason not to because it could affect them positively for a long time, and you won’t even think much of it.

In 2014 I walked from my home in the Netherlands to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, almost 3000 kilometers (between 1500 and 2000 miles, for the US readers). Time and again I have been struck with the kindness of people.

From people who, when I asked them to fill my water bottle, added some ice cubes "because it's so warm", to people who invited me in for a beer or a glass of wine in the shadow before continuing. Or even people who approached me in the street to ask if I had a place to sleep for the night, and invited me into their homes if I didn't. Or mayors of small villages who opened up the sporting facilities so I could shower and sleep there. Or people who let me set up my tent in their garden.
I can go on for hours.

If the news media are trying to make you believe that the world is a bad or dangerous place, there is really nothing better to regain your confidence in humanity than to take your backpack and go on a long walk for a few months (I took 5 months; best adventure in my life so far).

Most individuals are okay; it's when they organize themselves into groups that you have to be careful.

Just be careful if you do go on a long hike like this cuz there are people who will hurt you expically if your a woman (not trying to be depressing or anything but it's the truth) and if you are in a area with really southern people most of us are quite good at some old fashioned southern hospitality!!

I was about 8 and had my first phone (no cell service or anything just games and pics) and I went to wallmart. I had to go to the restroom so I put my phone in the cart and told my dad it was there. He forgot and went to the restroom as well, and when i got back my phone was gone. We went to the management and they said that they havent seen it. By this time i was crying and we needed to leave. As I was leaving an older lady came in and was holding my phone. She said that she had found it in the parking lot and she had guessed that someone dropped it so she would take it to lost and found. Well we said what happened and we realized that someone had tried to get into it and I guess they couldn't so they just left it in the parking lot. We tried to repay the lady but she said that she would have done the same thing for her grandchildren if she had any. I never saw the lady again but I will always rember her kindness.

There was a big storm while we were on a road trip and we stopped at a gas station to get food, and wait out the storm a while. We had made ourselves some cup o noodles but we couldn't find forks. Luckily this kind lady called Keisha, helped us and asked some Starbucks employee to get "us two babies" some forks. She was really nice, and I wont forget Miss. Keisha. We could've just gotten over our social anxiety and just asked for forks our selves but I'm real grateful we didn't have to.

I didn't so much as experience this as hear about it. There were two officers doing their rounds (in New York City I believe) and they walked by an ally. Now, there didn't seem to be anything odd about this ally, until a stray puppy walked out. The little dog trotted out and sat on one of the officer's shoes! The officer then brought it back to the station, but that puppy only had eyes for the one officer. Last I heard, the officer is in the process of adopting that puppy. :)

Once, I was lost in Disney World because I was staring at some toys in a shop, and my parents kept walking. As soon as I noticed I was lost, an elderly couple came by. I asked them if they had seen my parents. They said no, but they spent the rest of the afternoon helping me try to find my parents, even though that was their last day in Disney. And to top it all off, once we found my parents, they bought me the toy I was staring at when my parents accidentally left without me.

When I was like 7, I went to Utah for the first time while it was snowing! (I live in the dry desert so we don’t ever get snow) so me and my cousins went and thought that it was so “bad” to go and dust the snow off peoples cars. So when we were in the middle of doing so, the garage opened. We all scattered and hid. The guy was equipped with something you would use to take the snow off a car. But his job was already done, for we had done it for him. He saw our little heads poking out and we thought we were in trouble. However the guy said “hey! You saved me from being late to work!” And he gave us candy 😄

Many years ago the Seattle Art Museum had a showing of Impressionist paintings from the Louvre. It was attracting massive crowds. On the last day of the exhibit, I got there very early only to find the line already going around the block. After two hours, we were told that it would still be about four hours before we made it to the front of the line but that if anyone bought a season's pass to the museum, they could go in right away. The woman behind me (a stranger) decided to buy the pass, so she left the line and went in. I didn't have the money for a season pass and was debating whether or not I wanted to wait another four hours or just go home. Then I noticed the woman walking back down the line, looking intently at everyone she passed. She noticed me and said that she bought season passes for her and her boyfriend but he was out of town. So she gave me his ticket for the day and then she headed back into the museum before I could even thank her. It was so cool to be able to leave the line and walk right into the showing when I was expecting a four hour wait!

After getting away from an abusive relationship, I went to a local Catholic Charity to ask for clothing suitable to a job interview.

When she came back she was carrying 4 bags of food for my son and I. That was 20 years ago and I still weep when remembering her kindness. (I got the job. My son and I got back on our feet.)

I’m not sure it even counts but it made me feel good so here it is. I was like 8 years old and I was on a trip in a different state for vacation. When I was in the car going back to the airport I was doing the thing where you look out the window all serious and pretend to be in a music video. We passed another car with another girl about my age and she waved to me, and I waved back. It was so small but it just made me feel so good inside seeing another kid in a car just like me and waving to each other. Since I left that day I never saw her again.

It was last week when I voted early at FAMU in Florida. I’m in a walker after hip surgery. I asked the young man at the ballot box drop off station, while in my car, where handicapped parking was since I’d come to vote in person. He pointed down the road. When I got to the lot it turned out it was on a steep hill. I got out of my car but decided there was no way I could get up the hill and down the road a block On my own and I was preparing to leave, massively disappointed, when there he came, having found someone else to take care of his station,, to help me.

It took me an hour to vote even though there was no line, and he was at my side the whole way. It was an awesome achievement for me. And it was only possible because of his spirit.

I was ten years old, and I was at a summer camp. For some background, at home I was being abused by an uncaring father who's favorite thing to tell me was how stupid I was, how greedy, and what a bad person. A friend of mine was joking around and told me that I was stupid, which eventually triggered me into a panic attack. I was hyperventilating and crying in the middle of a large group, but one camp leader noticed. She pulled me away from the crowd, had me take a walk with her to find a bench. She didn't even know my name, but she pulled me in her lap and hugged me tight, rocking me and wiping my tears away when I finished. Every time my mind falls to the words of my ex-father, I instead turn my mind to her. I will never forget that day, and looking back on it from a much better place and mental wellness view, it still makes me smile.

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.

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.

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)

I have many questions did you take the mans wallet and donate with his card? Why did he offer you his wallet did you take his wallet? Did you ever find your lost wallet?

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.

When I was 9, I was at a gift shop at a wildlife center in Texas with my Nana. I had $8. I really wanted a $10 toy. After I accepted that I couldn't buy it, we looked at necklaces. While we were doing so, a man walked up and handed me the $10 toy with a receipt. I said, "Oh, That's not mine." But He insisted I take it. After a moment, I realized that he bought it for me! His wife said that he does these things all the time.
