15 Times Being Kind Was The Easiest Choice

Whether it’s people coming together or an individual standing up, kindness is a beautiful thing to see. We often forget how much good there is in the world with so much violence and hate seen in the media, but there is another side to these things. People are good and kind at heart, and there is at least one person each day who can remind us of that. These 15 examples are of people or groups who went out of their way to make someone else’s better or even save it. Kind acts are everywhere you look. You just have to be open to it.

1. This person surprised all their co-workers and bosses.

They baked treats and then wrote a note to each person and left it at their desk. A little gesture can go a very long way.

2. Sgt. Steve Wick washed this homeless man’s feet and clipped his toenails to make it easier for him to wear shoes.

The Homeless Outreach Team of Houston brought the man, Quintus, to an emergency shelter where he was set up to visit the eye doctor and get any other help he needs. 

3. Jamie Dawn Beckstead’s daughter Faith had to have her hair shaved for brain surgery.

To make her daughter feel better about her hair, Jamie got her hair shaved in the exact same way.

4. This photo might not look like much at first, but the man walking the bride down the aisle is actually a stranger.

The bride’s father passed away in 2006 and his heart was donated to Arthur Thomas. Jeni Stepien, the bride, contacted the man and asked him to walk her down the aisle despite never meeting. Her father died in 2006, but his heart was there to walk her down aisle. Arthur traveled from New Jersey to Pittsburgh for Jeni’s big day.“It is just like having my father here, and better because we get to share this story with other people, and people get to see that organ donors do matter.”
