This is a feel good article. I love to sharing stories like this.I'm glad this delivery guy has his priorities straight. Home repair and car repair are all necessary things to keep things running and not costing more in the long run. Buying Christmas gifts for his children will be a great bonus for the kids.
He sounds like your average America working hard and got a little break along the way. I wish stuff like this happened more often, being able to help our fellow man.
What a wonderful world if more would do this , instead of take take take. I know so many that all they think of is what do or can you give me. Thank you Linda for the wonderful inspiring story of knowing there are still those who give..
ReplyDeleteLove sharing stories like this.
DeleteWow, what a great thing for them to do for him. I agree, Dottie, it would be a much better world if people would give, even a kind word more than they do.
ReplyDeleteOf course this will not happen often, since these days so many people think they have so much more coming to them than they deserve. Stories like this renew my faith in people.
Needless to say Myra this had me crying so hard. My furbaby is a Maltese.
DeleteMost kids these days stand there with their palms up, extended because they feel entitled. These kids have been inspired by a man with a generous heart. I wish more people would see the lives of others and how they live. If people would just pay it forward instead of having expectations, instead of living because they want others to respect them for all they can accumulate instead of actually enjoying life with the ones you love. While we can't help everyone, a smile can bring so much to one that needs it most. It doesn't take much in most cases. There are always 2 sides to every story, but for some like the man in this story, what they did for him made him feel good and helped him and his family. Thanks Linda for the heart warming story
ReplyDeleteSo true about the smile Cyndy! It's takes nothing to smile at a person and you never will know how much it meant to a person.
DeleteSuch a heart warming story! We need more like that on a daily basis instead of everyone clamoring for more handouts, etc.
ReplyDeleteThat's for sure!
DeleteThat's an awesome story....if more people performed acts of kindness like this. the world would indeed be a much happier place.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this one, Linda. :)
After watching the 11p.m. news tonight, it was wonderful to read such a great story. The world needs more of these kind of stories. Thank you for sharing. Carol San Diego
ReplyDeleteYou know what Carol? I use to watch the news all the time. When CNN was a decent channel it was always on, now I rarely put it on. I get news from the web and try to look for good things.
DeleteWay to many negative things- need to being the good stuff in and make people feel good again.
Hi Linda, I agree. Way to many negative things. Hubby thinks he has to watch the news every day. lol I am stuck. Carol San Diego
