It’s the little things in life that matter most, and compassion and kindness go a long way in making the world go around. We’re all just trying to figure this life out as we go and enjoy every step along the way, so why not be friendly and help one another out?
The elderly couple in the video below is certainly one to look up to as far as role models go and how we should behave! When the woman saw a young man struggling to tie his necktie in the subway in Atlanta, she went and told her husband…
The older gentleman came over and showed the young man how it’s done and finished the job for him. The boy probably wasn’t expecting that, and that’s part of what makes it so great! An act of kindness like this surprises you in the best way, and it’s contagious!
The young man was clearly on his way somewhere in which he wanted to look his best and make a great impression, so this was important to him. A bystander saw the moment and snapped a photo and uploaded it to Facebook where it received lots of love.
Thankfully, there are people like this elderly couple out in the world, and we could certainly use more of this in life! 🙂
