These Stories Of Strangers Helping Strangers Remind Us There Is So Much Good In The World.

strangers helping stranger

As we go about our busy days, it can be hard to remember that all of us humans are in this thing together.

While we are all working individually towards our goals, hoping to eek out a living and provide for our families, we can lose sight of the global community of which we’re all members. It often takes a kind word or action from a stranger who has nothing to gain from helping to remind us that the majority of people in the world are, indeed, good.
