Awww. His friend is basking in the joy, too.

It is NEVER too late to learn. I wish my mother would realize this. I'm 41, and I have learned new things and better ways to treat people more humanely and kindly, and to respect who they are and what they care about and things that are important to them. It costs nothing to use someone's preferred pronouns or proper name. It costs nothing to treat people of color as who they are - normal human beings like any other human being. It hurts me to see my mother be so purposefully racist, obtuse, and cruel, even to people she has never met.

completely deserved

I bet this kid will grow up to be a great person

We need more people like this!

When you are in that deep, dark pit, it is very difficult to see and hear the kindness around you. I am so very glad you saw and listened. I wish you peace and happiness always.

Those mysterious angels that show up when they are needed, do their tasks, then take flight when they know their charges are truly safe. Where would so many of us be without them?

I had a similar experience as a teen. I was in a long term psychiatric facility for teenagers, and one day I'd really had it. I flung myself at the locked doors from a running jump- and then the entire scene disappeared and became a garden. I saw a person who told me it was not my time to go yet, and then the scene vanished as I was removed from the area limb by limb. It's remained with me for the past 25years.

this made me cry damn onions

Sometimes all it takes is that one reminder that life might have a bit more to offer you. About ten years ago I was getting ready to swallow a bottle of pills when my sister texted me. My phone screen lit up and I saw my background photo of my then 2-year old nephew, and saw my sister's text asking if I wanted to come over to her place to play mario kart. I'm still here today and doing a LOT better.

He was right. No matter how hopeless you feel, life DOES get better. Hold on.

I truly hope beyond hope that you are doing better. Your life is valued and you are loved.

i wish someone did this for me. i had to yank myself out of it last time. I'm still finding shards of pills in my room

Wishing you the best. He was right even though life seems hopeless sometimes.

We are all the strangers in each other's live because... we are not really strangers. I've taken to saying this to people I meet in public. Sit next to me on the bus or a bench? I say, we're not really strangers.

Sometimes people simply need to be acknowledged.

I love this, as I am at a point in my life, because of moving away from my friends and family, where I am contemplating life. Tbh Im just here bc Im scared of what will happen afterwards

Your guardian Angel

Oh damn, what a sweet old man!

God never really sends angels but instead he sends a human. Never fight the call to do a good deed, it takes so little but means so very much. Humanity wins everytime.

I'm so glad that there are people like this. Speaking from experience, it can be extremely hard to believe the people you know who try to help you, because your mind can twist it however it wants. With a stranger, it's an act of kindness that they never had to do in the first place, no reason or motivation other than a person looking down.

It may return, so be ready for it with remembering how good it tasted to have another understand and care about you. It comes, but more importantly, it goes. Sending love and understanding while leaving my own depression.

That man was an angel.

You probably helped that elderly gentleman as much as he helped you! So much love and huge hugs to you young man! xoxoxo

All it takes is kindness from one stranger, pay it forward folks.

I was in that hole from 4th grade through high school. A lor of people are during those years and it otften takes almost all you have to give to get through it, but he is correct, life does get better. Good things come into it, bad memories fade, you get busy with life. Ask for what you need distract yourself from what you don't want through nature, a hobby, reading, journaling, exercise, a dog friend, etc. Best of future to you,

As Winston Churchill once said, “When you’re going through hell, keep going.” Bad times end and life is worth living no matter how strong the temporary storm. May you always carry that man’s goodness in your heart.

I struggle with depression, and always remind myself this is temporary and will pass. Hold on to that thought.

*onion ninja emoji *

I think God sent you an angel.

I love this and also I cried a bit

I love seeing this one every time it makes the rounds. A reminder that people are looking out for you even when you don’t know. There’ve been many times I’ve looked out for someone from a distance and probably vice versa. People do care about you!

That's one sassy little girl!

There's nothing like facing the question of your own mortality to make you think about the things that really matter to you. When the pandemic started, given that I am not a healthy person, I was very much afraid that I might catch COVID and die. So I asked myself, "What's the one thing I really, really want to do before I die?" The answer was "I wanna see the Northern Lights!" Well, I got all boostered up and when I did catch COVID I came out of it just fine, so now to start working at going up North and seeing those lights dance in the sky.

Reminds of what Whoopi Goldberg said after seeing Nichelle Nicols on Star Trek. “ There’s a black lady on TV and she ain’t no maid!”

He is. Oh, he is. <3

i watched this back then and i think the little guy did an amazing job

Two solid fellas there!!!!

I love this guy's tattoos.
