When I was thirteen, I was walking around and eating with my earbuds in, and I noticed this guy kind of watching me and following me around. I thought it was a little weird, but probably just a coincidence, right? So I just kept doing my thing and made sure to stick to pretty populated areas, hoping he'd eventually leave. About half an hour goes by of this and my sister texts me telling me I needed to come home so we could get ready for an event. The guy was still kind of following me, but I wasn't quite sure what to do. To get back to my house, I had to take some back roads that weren't very heavily trafficked, plus I didn't want this guy to follow me and know where I lived, so I walked inside to a restaurant to see if he was gonna follow me. Of course he did. I opened the notes app on my phone and typed out, "This guy is following me" and took it to the Viet lady behind the counter. I called her Aunt May (the only aunt I could think of at the moment lol) and asked her if she changed her phone number because she wasn't answering my texts, showing her the phone with the note open. That woman played along and took me behind the counter and let me out the back entrance. I wish I'd thanked her. That could have ended pretty badly.

I was crying at church and a man was walking by. He came up to me and got down to my level and began to say nice things and it'll be okay. Then he said he has short term memory loss (like two to three mintues) and have never really felt sad like you are now. He said by the time I get down those stairs I will have forgotten you, but I hope you remember what I'm saying now, and he smiled and walked away.

When I was in Rome this past spring, my sister and I went to the Vatican. While we were in St. Peter’s Basilica, we stopped just to admire the inside and we were standing by the wall. Then suddenly this guy came up to me and said “I just have to tell you, I think you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in the whole world.” We had a lovely conversation for a while and we exchanged contact information but I gave him my number I got abroad so there was no way for us to contact each other. I forgot his name but to the wonderful boy from Germany, thank you so much for everything you said.

I worked at a Starbucks, and a woman comes up in line during a morning rush. I greeted her, and she looked at me, really looked at me, and said “you have a beautiful face.” Being a man who was born looking different than most, this woman told me something I had rarely heard from anyone, let alone a stranger. For 15 years, I’ve a had a little more self love. Thank you stranger.

My three year old son was going to undergo an 8 hour surgery at Children's Hospital in Philadelphia. I was brave until he went into the OR without me. I left my husband standing in the hallway and locked myself in a stall in the ladies room and just CRIED out my fears to God. I'm sure most of my prayer was unintelligible, but there was a lot of "please don't let him die" "please don't let him be brain damaged" "I'm not strong enough to lose him" kind of praying going on for about 10 minutes. I used a bunch of toilet paper blowing my nose and wiping my face, and I thought I had it together when I unlocked the stall door. And there, sitting on the sink was a woman. She had about 3 inch florescent orange finger nails, a LOT of braids, a tattoo on her neck and she was wearing skin tight jeans and a leopard print top that left little to the imagination. I was positively mortified that she had heard my intimate prayers and sobbing to God. But she taught me an incredible gift. She said "Honey, that boy's goin to be just fine. You don't need to worry about him any more." She got down off the sink and gave me an all enveloping hug and said " Now no more crying ok?" To say I was dumbstruck would be an understatement. She pointed to the door and I mumbled a thank you. She nodded and I straightened my shoulders and walked out to see my husband leaning against the wall with his face in his hands. It was my turn to be the comforter and that woman's words were exactly what my husband needed to hear. In Hebrews chapter 13 there's a verse about hospitality that says that you should show kindness to strangers because you may be entertaining angels unaware. That beautiful woman showed me exactly what that verse looks like in person, although she was showing the kindness and I may have met an angel unaware. My son is 31 now and he is a strong, healthy and talented man. She was right. That boy was just fine.

I was once taking a 6 hour train ride. I had my movies, snacks, books, I was so looking forward to sitting there and being in my own space for 6 hours. An old woman sat down next to me, and even though I was watching a movie and listening with my headphones in, but I could tell she wanted to talk. So I took my headphones off and turned to her and smiled. We talked, and laughed, and cried for the entire 6 hour ride. Her twin sister, who she lived within 5 minutes of for her entire 70 years, had just passed away. She was going to stay with some family to deal with the grief. She said when she got on the train she felt so alone and prayed for someone to talk to her. I guess that was me.

When I was 14 years old I was walking home from school and an older man was following me. He kept trying to grab me, ask for my number, trying to be "cute" in his words. I was terrified. There was no one around. My phone was dead. I kept trying to think of what to do to get out of the situation but nothing came to mind. Just as he was trying to hold my hand, I saw this older woman outside, watering her plants. I lied, said she was my grandma, and pretended I lived there. I must've looked terrified because as soon as she saw me she played right along. Big hug, cup of lemonade, and fresh cookies were waiting for me as she sat me down on her porch. I will never forget the dirty look she gave that man and the sheer look of disappointment as he turned around and walked away. I don't remember her name or even which house it was but I will forever be grateful for her act of kindness. My worst fears would've come true if I'd never found her.

Absolutely a case of "in the wrong place at the wrong time". So listen, I was absolutely terrified to be in jail, never had been. Total shock for me. This girl took me under her wing. Explained what was okay and what was not. Didn't let anyone mess with me. She was amazing. I'll never forget how she made one of the darkest most loneliest times in my life feel less terrible. I told her I would write and I never did after I got out. By the time I got my life back together, I couldn't find her. I'm so sorry Bridget. You were a good friend to me and I abandoned you.

She scoffed and rolled her eyes before storming off. I went about comforting myself. Self hug, whispering, “You’re okay, you’re okay,” over and over. Suddenly from behind me, a woman tapped me on the shoulder. I startled and turned around to see her holding out a tissue. I took it completely stunned and she looked at me with so much warm concern. She asked me if I was okay, and took my silence as an answer. “You’ll be okay one day.” It suddenly hit me that if a stranger could see that something was wrong, then it wasn’t all in my head. That act of kindness changed everything. I’ll never forget it.

I was so depressed my 5 year relationship with my ex ended. I had moved to another city and was starting over. I was in my late 20's. I sat in my apartment until i had had enough and decided to go get groceries as i needed to do something. As i started shopping i noticed an elderly man in my isle. He didn't have any groceries. He was looking at me and decided to approach and talk to me. At first i was a little weirded out and didn't understand why he wanted to talk to me a total stranger. He was just talking about something on the store shelf so didn't really seem like a threat. He said his name and asked mine. He went to shake my hand and hesitantly i shook his. As soon as he shook my hand he said something that i never forgot "oh yeah you are going to be just fine". There was no way he could of known that i was hurting. I didn't show it. But what i felt when he said this while shaking my hand was unreal. I never felt so convinced, reassured about the future in one moment as i did in that one. He politely said "well it was nice meeting you (then said my name)" and walked away. I was a little stunned by what i had felt. I looked around the store out of curiosity to see if he was still there and could not find him in any isle or any checkout line. It was as if he was just gone. I have my theory and maybe its just a thought to gives me comfort but nevertheless i never felt before what i felt in the moment he said what he said while shaking my hand. Thank you for letting me share my experience.

I used to work for Starbucks and I distinctly remember a homeless woman who came in to buy a coffee and she paid with this lil pile of coins that she held in her hand. She said jokingly that it was all she had but I got the impression it wasn't actually a joke. And then, she still tipped me some of those coins. I've had countless rich people pass through and never tip a cent but she had so little and still bothered to show appreciation like that. It's stuck with me ever since.

Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.

I’ll always remember the Uber driver that I had who had a heart attack after my ride home, while I was getting out. He was an older guy, really nice. We talked about his daughter who just moved away for college, and about my experiences in community college and how I recently started at the university in my city. I remember how he encouraged me to finish college, and told me that he’d know I’d do great things. As I was getting out, I looked back to say goodbye and he was looking down. I remember it so vividly, because I asked him if he was okay, but when he looked up I could tell he was struggling to speak, like he was in pain. I remember him say “Help, My chest hurts.” And so I dropped everything, ran to the front seat, and pulled his keys out of the car, and called 911. The ambulance came quickly. But I remember just sitting their, afraid and powerless to help him. I didn’t know him, but I lost my mom to cancer. After they left all I could think about was his daughter, and how much it hurt to lose my mom. His car was in front of my house for 2 days before his wife came to get it, she dropped cookies off at my front door with a note saying that he was okay and thanking me for being there and getting help. I don’t know if he’s still alive today, but his legacy will live on his daughter, like my moms did in me.

Something tells me that this man probably had his own child that died before him out of no where and that’s why he told you to enjoy the time you have with your kids.

It was the late 60's. My wife and I, aged mid to late twenties were waiting in line at the Oakland (CA) Symphony. We were dressed 'OK' but not like many of the people in line. A man approached us and asked if we were waiting to purchase tickets. We said yes. He said 'My wife is ill and cannot attend tonight. Please accept our tickets.' We didn't know him and we never saw him again. I will never forget this.

I was walking in a city many years ago. An old homeless man grabbed my arm as I walked past, he said something to me but I couldn't understand as it was a foreign language, he smiled and pointed upwards to a corner under the eaves of a small store. There was a swallows nest of mud and at that time 4 baby swallows peeked out chirping. He had so much pleasure to show me those baby birds I have never forgotten it.

A homeless man in a wheelchair knocked on my van window. Most people ignore these types. He wanted money for food or anything. I told him to come with me to the resteraunt on the other side of the parking lot and I would get him some food. I bought him enough food for 6 people. From the conversation on the way it sounded like he also had some hungry friends as well. Before I left I gave him a hug. He stopped and looked at me as if that was the most loving thing he has ever received. I'll never forget the look in his eyes. He was more happy to be treated like a human being than he was about the food to nourish his body. People forget to be humans these days. I'll never forget his eyes.

I feel compelled to share. Thanks for listening. - I was around 10 years old, riding my bicycle down the industrial lane. The lane had been freshly graveled and coated in oil. I decided to ride my bike on the side of the road in the dirt. I stopped to take a break. It was summer and the ice cream truck came down the lane. A man in his 60's walked up to the ice cream truck, the truck pulled away and the man walked over to me, he had two fudge pops in his hand, and said, are you Ed B's son. I said, yes. Here son, this is for you, and he handed me a fudge pop. He said, I knew your Daddy, he was one of my best friends, he was such a good man, I miss him. I never knew my father, he died 6 months before I was born. The man's name was Orville and he owned the trucking company my father had worked for. Later that day at home I told my mother about it. She said, that was Orville, your daddy loved him. I never saw Orville again but I will never forget him. He was the first person to tell me anything, something, about my father.

The world aren't perfect and so is us , everyone has their struggle and imperfection. I know that some people feel ashamed because of their difference , thier looks , their hobby , their mind. But is okay to be different , is okay to be yourself because no one is perfect. Is okay to take time when going through something. We all have different talent , different struggle and different experience. Even our experience aren't the same but that's okay , because we aren't meant to be the same. We are meant to be different and unique in our own ways. Like Steven universe said : if every pork chop were perfect , we wouldn't have hot dog. ☺️ Live for yourself and be kind to yourself because when there are no one around , you still have yourself. Love yourself like the one you loved. I don't know what you had gone through but I really hope you are doing okay now. Stay strong. ❤️

A really old man came over to talk to me when I was about 21, on a break from work (I have always worn 1940s clothes/hair style since I was in my late teens) he was so sweet and apologized for interrupting my break but he had tears in his eyes and he said I reminded him so much of his girl. That she always wore her hair the way I was. He'd been in love with a girl during the war and she'd been killed in a air raid while he was away in the navy and they never got a chance to get married. He stood, while I had my smoke break and told me all about her. He'd never married anyone else because she was it for him. He was so happy talking about her, I'll never forget him. I have no doubt he will have passed now so they'll be together again. Such a lovely man.

I am the type to randomly compliment someone on the street, just because I genuinely liked that thing about them, as well as the fact that I may have been the first person to tell them that, and it’s important that they know. One time I complimented presumabl non-binary person on their hair and they looked surprised and happy, and my friend said, ‘Hey, they look like that’s the first time they’ve ever heard that.’ And it brought me so much genuine joy and that’s why I keep doing it.

She hugged me and sobbed for at least 15 minutes and my daughter and I cried right along with her.... right in the middle of Kroger. She said she never got to say goodbye to her sister.

You could tell they really loved eachother Then they would order a cheese cake and share it too. One day he turned up alone, ordered the same but only ate half the spaghetti and wanted the cheesecake take away. As I handed him his cheese cake I asked about his wife.

About a year ago while I was staying in Turkey I suddenly started feeling really ill. Like I couldn't stand up and felt like I would just pass out if I continued to walk. So the only thing I could do was to crouch on the street and wait till I got better and I remember so many people walking there but nobody cared to look at me and there was this syrian woman (probably a refugee, as she wasn't able to speak turkish and was probably a beggar) and she tried to ask me in arabic if I was ok and needed help. Till this day I am ashamed that the people who reach out to you are mostly those who are the ones in need.

Back in about 1966 or so, probably 55 + years ago, I was going through a terrible time in a stressful marriage and I stopped at a store in Tacoma, Washington, with four little daughters. We were on our way to the zoo, and for some reason, we were all dressed up. I was at the top of an escalator and an older lady looked up and said "mother stop." Then she looked up at us and said "beautiful, just beautiful." I have never forgotten that. I'm sure she's been long gone and I am probably the age that she was at that time. I cannot remember that time without crying as it was a very low point in my life and I have never forgotten how she lifted me up. You never know how the teeniest and most insignificant moments in life will have a life long impact on you. God bless that old lady. I'm crying now.

I’ve never particularly felt that way about myself, but I knew it in her voice that it was genuine. I smiled like an idiot for literal hours after that. I dont know her name, I dont know where she lives, I can barely remember what she looks like, but I have heard her voice in my head every day since.

Sometimes an animal is your memorable stranger. I was in my final year of uni in Cardiff, my girlfriend had left me, I was stressed about exams and feeling unwanted and lonely. I went for a run in Bute Park and on the far side of the River Taff where it was quiet I sat down. Suddenly a cat came up to me, so full of affection and for quite a while we made a big fuss of each other, enjoyed each others company then sat quietly like the best of friends. I felt loved and appreciated and my feeling of being unwanted disappeared. It's not the only time an animal has been my wonderful stranger and I thought animals deserved a mention amongst all these inspiring comments. Sending love to each and every person who reads this 💕

When I was 10 years old by dad was badly injured in Iraq, over 70% of his body had 3rd degree burns, so as a kid I spent a lot of time in the burn unit of the hospital just wandering around. One day what must have been a new injured soldier arrived and was wheeling around in a wheelchair just exploring the unit and I passed by him and just looked him in the eyes and smiled. He started crying and I was so scared because I thought I did something wrong but he just told me that I was the first kid that looked at him and wasn't scared. I really wanted to cry too but I just kept smiling and talking to him. I realized that day how much a simple smile can make a stranger feel less invisible and alone and I really carried that the rest of my life.

I actually have a story from yesterday. I was working as a ride operator at Cedar Point in Ohio. Excessively hot day, the workload we had was difficult and fast paced. I started to feel very sluggish and dizzy, like I was on the verge of passing out from the heat. Two oncoming riders who were waiting in line, these two middle aged black women, took it upon themselves to get out of line and get me some ice water to stave of me potentially landing myself in the hospital. I never got their names or anything, but being at a place where people are normally much more concerned with having fun rather than others, I don’t think I’ll ever forget their kindness.

This is such a neat topic. Here's my stranger story. It was about 1980, I was about 25 years old. It was getting dark. I had a flat tire, and was in the process of changing it in a church parking lot. No problem, I knew how, but I was struggling with lifting the tire up onto the wheel, it was a big heavy tire. Out of nowhere, a guy pulls over, lifts the tire onto the wheel, and takes off. I didn't even see his face, all I know is that he was wearing a business suit and was in a big hurry, but still took a moment to help me.

Norahcake 21 most likely a abusive relationship

When my brother and I were little, my dad went into a gas station and left us in the car. I think I was around 9 so he was 7. My dad drove a standard. My brother and I are playing around in the car, and one of us accidentally engaged the emergency break. We started rolling down a hill into what would have been oncoming city traffic. We started screaming. We didn’t know what to do as we were just kids. Even though it only took seconds, it felt like forever. A man with long hair, chains, and tattoos ran up along side of the car, reached through my open window, and pulled the ebrake up before we hit the curb. I’m 37 now, and I will never forget him. He more than likely saved our lives. He came and went very quickly. My dad didn’t even have a chance to thank him. Im very thankful for him.

I was in high school. It was my junior year, and I was at one of the darkest points in my life. Contemplating suicide almost every day. I don’t know if I looked sad or what but no one in my family or friend group acknowledged it, but I just remember these two girls walking by and one of the girls looked at me and asked “can I give you a hug?” And I accepted. We hugged for a couple seconds and went out separate ways and I never saw her again. I’m not really a spiritual person but I believe that in that moment there was a higher power looking out for me.

I love this story.

Two days after my father's funeral, I was sitting in the middle seat of an airplane on the way home... completely devastated. As tears silently streamed down my face, this man next to me rummaged through his bag to hand me some lunch napkins. He sat silently for a minute before gently asking me if I lost someone. I said yes. He asked if I lost my father. I said yes. He asked if the hat I was cradling in my arms was his. I said yes. Was it cancer? I shook my head yes. It was odd... How well he could read me... how he seemed to just know. He sighed sadly and said "I am so sorry. You are too young to have lost him." Several minutes later, he was scrolling through his phone and started to show me pictures. Of his beautiful family and dachshund puppies (which I also have and adore). His trip to California (places I recognized because I camped there with my dad as a kid). And then his pride and joy- his Harley Davidson. (THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL AS MY FATHER'S.) There was something familiar about this stranger. His voice, his age, even his bushy mustache. He was so comforting. He even offered me his shoulder to rest on when I looked sleepy. At the end of our flight, I grabbed my bag and thanked him so much. He wrapped me in his arms in a big bear hug and then paused for a moment before looking me in the eye. "It's gonna be okay. You're gonna be okay, sweetheart." He gave me the kindest smile and waved as I walked away. That was 3 years ago and I think of him all the time. Life is chaos. We bounce around and collide with eachother without thinking twice. But I am convinced in this case... My path and his path were meant to meet. I needed this kind soul, who reminded me so much of my father, at that exact moment. I will always be forever grateful. Be kind to one another. Appreciate one another. Love and peace to all.

Sounds like you met an Angel sent by God to console you my friend. God bless you.

I remember when I was about 13 years old, I was in the lunch line at school. A couple of boys in front of me were teasing me and picking on me. And there was this one girl who was passing us. She noticed what the boys were doing and saying and she told them off. She was the only one who really stood up for me like that. And I was picked on a lot growing up. I didn’t know her name or anything. It really meant a lot to me. She seemed so strong. And I felt saved.

I wish I can be a stranger to be remembered in people's lives in a good way. It just remembers me that every day and every encounter is an opportunity to make a difference in someone's life.

How do you know you aren't? How could you possible know what a beautiful impact you had on someone?

On my first week of driving after getting a license, I would do these "test drives" with my dad around the city to practice my driving skills. I was very nervous about driving, and my city is known for its heavy and chaotic traffic jams. In one of these "test drives", we stopped at the traffic lights right in front of a tunnel's entrance. When the light turned green, I just kept stalling the car (it was manual) over and over again and couldn't move it. My dad tried to help me but I just couldn't make sense of what he was saying. I was getting even more nervous, people behind me started honking at me and I still couldn't figure it out. Meanwhile, I saw a homeless man approach my open window, and I could only think of "oh well, now he's gonna ask me for money or something and make this situation even worse". But no. When he got closer, he said "Calm down, you can do it! Just try to relax, you know how to do this!" and then he faced the honking cars behind me and said "Could you stop bothering my friend here? She's learning!" After that I finally got the car to move, and didn't even get a chance to thank him. I'll never forget how wholesome that moment was!

I was in love with a boy and I thought I never gonna see him again but i found him on instagram and I send him a message but he is already in love with a girl and my life was over but now I forgot him because I am in love with another really nice boy but he is in love with another girl too I know my life is sad 😣

One stranger ill never forget is this old man i met in Philadelphia a few years ago. He was homeless and blind but talked enough to carry a conversation himself. I saw him on a street corner just outside the city, and kept seeing him there each day i went into the city. On the fourth time seeing him, i decided to ask him what he was doing, so i got off my bike and talked to him. He told me his name was Charles but to call him Charly. I asked him what he was doing on the corner so often and he told me that he was just enjoying the town. He told me he was homeless so i asked him if he wanted something to eat. He said yes so i got each of us a sandwich. When we finished eating, he got up and said thank you for the meal, and started walking away. I got up with my bike and followed after him because he was an older guy in his late 70s so i didnt want him tripping and falling on anything. When got closer, i saw he had a walking stick for the blind, so i kind of just put two and two together i walked with him and we started talking. I learned that he was a Vietnam veteran and that he lost his sight while fighting. I learned about his daughter and son who he hadn't seen in 30 years, i learned about how he became homeless, how he survived on the streets, and so so much more. By the end of our walk, we had gone roughly 11 miles and it had been 4 and a half hours. We stopped at a somewhat busy sidewalk and he just sat down and started whistling, taking breaks every minute or so, with each break lasting about a minute. Another stranger came up to us and asked if we were homeless, to which i replied i am not but this other man is. This person was a women who looked to be about my age (i was 16 at the time) and she sat down next to us. After about a minute of silence, Charly said out of the blue "you two get along now" and then started whistling again. So thats what he did. I learned the girls name and were still good friends to this day. About 6 months ago i stopped seeing Charly at his normal spot, and layer found out that he died of cancer. Turns out his name wasnt Charles, it was Bennett. Ill never forgot him. He taught me that while some people may be, in his own words, "ugly bast**ds on the outside, when you take time to talk to someone, you see a whole different side to them. In my case, that other side smells like sh** and cant get a girl." Me and the girl, whos name she asked me not to mention, are going to visit where were told his grave is soon and we plan to have a drink with him. (He told me his favourite drinks are coca cola and whiskey)

But the next day he drew the same picture and gave it to me, but this time climbing the beanstalk was me and him.

I meet many very interesting strangers on a very common basis, i'm a waitress, it's kind of my job to talk to people. The one that sticks out the most happened not too long ago. For background, I lost my grandfather in January, it was devistating to all of us. I'd been trying to pull myself together, fall apart and pick back up again. This day was a particularly hard day, and this older gentleman was in by himself eating. I wasn't even waiting on him. As he was starting to leave he looked at me and asked if I was my pap's granddaughter. I was really taken aback because I don't look like my grandpa, and I didn't have any linkage to him on me and he said to me "Oh man do I miss him, we used to get coffee at the gas station together sometimes" and he just went along his merry way. After a good old sob in the bathroom, I came out and asked what his name was (very small town things lmao). My mom had no clue who he was, my grandma didn't either, they were just buddies for coffee, and I really hope I get to see him again some day :)

I was going through a tough divorce & child custody 3.5 yrs ago. I went to grocery store & had been crying, this man walked right up to me & gave me a hug & said I was loved & he was praying for me. It just floored me. I’ve never forgot that & never will. Angels are all around us & some don’t have wings:)

Once my best friends dad kicked me out of their house when he found out why I was staying with them (I had come out as gay and my mom didnt want me at home) so I went out in the rain to try and find my way to my grand dads house. I hadnt lived in the town for very long so I didnt know it very well but I figured it couldnt hurt to try. After about two hours I decided I was hopelessly lost and needed to go ask someone for directions. I was afraid because it wasnt a very safe town and I had never been in this sort of situation before. I picked a house with some childrens toys in the front yard, because I thought that if they had kids they might be willing to help someone else's kid out. I knocked on the door and I guess I didn't realize how upset I was, but when she looked at me, standing out there shaking, scared, in the rain and asked me what was wrong I started crying. As soon as I did the woman who had answered the door pulled me inside and wrapped me into a hug, wet clothes and all. She gave me tea and something to eat, and had me tell her what happened. She assured me it was all going to be okay, and when she made sure I would be safe and accepted there, she drove me to my grand dads. She skipped work to take care of me for that short hour. I got out of the car and she walked me to the door. When I opened it up she stopped me and asked if she could hug me. I told her yes and she did. I asked her why she let me in when she had a child in the house with her and she explained that she figured I was an angel, or that an angel must have sent me because we both needed help. her aunt died that week, which was the only reason she was in town. If i had come two hours earlier I would have knocked on an empty house, and she wouldnt have been able to feel like she did good. I dont know her name, I dont know where she's from, but she saved me, and I do know I'll never forget her. Thank you for reading my little story :)

2001, I was 16, sat down at a bench next ro a tall grown, elderly man. Noticed a faded tatoo with several numbers on his inner wrist. Gathered all my courage and asked him if this tattoo meant what I assume it means. He said I was right and told me that he survived a concentration camp as a young man. Told me how starved he was (less than my weight back then, I was sth about 50 kg). He was so gentle and kind.

This is such a beautiful video. ❤️ Had me crying the whole time. It reminded me of meeting a stranger 2 years ago. I was standing on the street in front of our house with my parents and my husband. It was dark outside and from down the street a woman comes walking toward us. She was carrying her purse but she didn’t have any shoes on and she was really flighty and anxious. I called out to her to ask if she was alright, if she needed help. She was so far in shock that she almost kept walking but I knew she was in trouble. My husband and I convinced her to come inside and she told us how she had been abused by her boyfriend. He had beat her, choked her till she passed out and locked her in their closet. She stayed with us for a while until her adult daughter was able to join her and encourage her to go to the police. The cops picked them both up at our doorstep to take her to safety and get a statement from her. The experience taught me that you can’t just “stay out of someone else’s business”, all the time. She was afraid and alone and she needed someone to step in for her. A few weeks later I saw her again when she came back to the neighborhood to get some of her belongings. She told me that her boyfriend had been arrested because of what she reported and she was in the process of pressing charges. I was so proud of her and so happy to see how much better she was doing. I’m so lucky to have known her.

A few years ago, I was going home after ending a very toxic relationship with a guy, I was holding my tears. I got on the bus, and the bus driver cracked a joke with me, which I followed, and I involuntary smiled and looked at him. He got serious and said "don't you ever let anyone change that smile". I'll never forget that moment. I still get emotional thinking about it.

I have ASD (or Aspergers to simplify things). I have awful Misophonia, which is a deep sensitivity to sounds, and the severe ticks and emotional responses to them. My school was having a pep rally type of thing in the gym and we all were required to attend. I wasn’t ever in special ed because I ‘didn’t look autistic’ so my issues weren’t taken seriously by the school. So I was there in the gym, forced to be surrounded by 2000 people in the same room, packed shoulder to shoulder. I was near the top of the bleachers sitting with my friends. I had already been having anxiety out of me anticipating the noise I would be hearing, which made my reaction stronger. It’s not the volume of the noises that is the issue, rather it’s the noises themselves. People secretly eating Takis out of there back pack, someone belting out whatever pop garbage they are listening to, feet tapping, shoes squeaking, people laughing. I always try to conceal it but it’s pretty obvious when I’m having an attack. I press my knees together and bring my shoulder up to my ear. I don’t blame my friends for not noticing, they were focused on the contents of the rally. I was at the end of my row of friends, so there was a random student to my left. I guess he felt my shoulder move up or noticed my feet tapping because he turned to face me. Behind my panic I was also deeply embarrassed. I’m sitting there as a grown a$$ person, 17 years old, and reacting like a child. I expected him to be rude but he asked me if I was okay. I couldn’t respond, which was an answer in itself. He put a hand on my knee to ground me, and helped me down the bleachers. He lead me to the outside of the gym and just stood with me until the anxiety attack passed. I am so great full for him doing that. I made sure to thank him as soon as I could speak. We are friends now, but we were strangers when we met. I am deeply thankful for his kindness.

I’ll never forget when I was 10 and was buying deodorant with my sister for my dad for Christmas. We were spraying them and smelling them and found one we liked so we through it in the basket. An old lady next to us stopped us and said to us “what were you’s just doing” I thought she was mad so we got scared and we mumbled “smelling them to buy a nice smell for our dad” and she said “exactly, that’s what everyone does, don’t grab the one from the from the front sweetheart, their half empty, always grab one from the back” she then grabbed it out of our basket and grabbed one from the back and said “here you go sweetheart” ever since then, even today at 20 I always got them from the back, something I’ve never forgotten. I wish I could see her again and hug her and thank her.. I’m not sure why but it was such a kind thing for her to do for my sister and I and she quite literally changed my sister and I’s life forever. I know a strange thing to remember, but I’ll never forget it, it was a life lesson.

Then he told us he was gay and his boyfriend and him had been harassed multiple times, when someone saved them and walked with them, and he just wanted to do the same thing and help us. I’ll probably never forget his kindness.

I often show kidness and give compliments to strangers, and this video makes me think if i am someones stranger they still remember. It makes my heart smile.

Back in late 2014 I was working at a gas station, and this girl around my age (18 at the time), came in crying and obviously torn up about something, I never knew what it was about. She asked me if I was a religious man, at the time I wasn't, so I just kind of stared and asked why. She said "if you are, you could please pray for me". I asked for her name "so He would know who I was talking about". I still remember her name. For some reason I prayed about her often for weeks after, just making sure she was ok. She came back in a few months later and told me everything was good.

I remember sitting next to a woman on a flight to Dubai, I was 13 at the time. She gave me her dessert with a smile, I remember being in awe of her beauty, petite woman with blonde curly hair. When we landed in Dubai I saw her run up to her partner and jump into his arms. There was just something different about her, a free spirit.

man me too, i remember being stuck in the worst traffic jam ive seen to this day when i was like 8 and talking to the kids in the car next to me by writing on our notebooks :')

I was an extraordinarily isolated child. I was homeschooled and lived in a neighborhood with no other children, and next to nothing was in walking (or biking) distance. I used to read books about kids who were in public school and marvel at the lives of even the “loners”. I dreamed about what it was like to meet up with someone after school, to play at the playground together, or even just what it would be like to visit a friend’s house: something I’d never done, nor had anyone visited mine. One day when I was 8 or so, my mom drove me out to a park in another neighborhood so I could play. I was acting out a scene from one of my favorite books when a girl came up to me and asked me if I wanted to play with her since none of her friends could be there that day. She took me off down a trail into the woods, to a place where the neighborhood kids had made a sort of nest out of tree branches, and we just sat there while she told me stories about the games they’d play, the neighborhood boys who harassed them- anything. She showed me the tree with a loose branch, which they’d use to shake the tree tops like a little bat-signal to call all the other girls over. We even ran from the boys when a few of them showed up and hid in the other, “secret” meeting place. For a half hour or so, I got to be an actual, real kid. I’ll never forget it.

Play is a very important part to the development of children (specifficaly the development of morality) to the point that being deprived of play is considered abuse and that play in children is considered a human right. For more information I would recomend Jean Piagets work on the development of children; it revolutionized psychology.

For me it is the paramedic who NARCANed me. On our way to the hospital I was crying and she said, "I can tell you're a good person. It isn't too late to fix this. It's never too late". I have been sober for 3 and a half years since that day. I am forever grateful for her and her compassion.

The kindness of strangers, oh dear I really could tell many many stories. But this is the eldest one I remember. I was about 5 years old and my mother and me got into that really terrible rain shower on our way home from shopping. We seeked a dry place and stood in the doorway of an old house, when suddenly the door was opened and an old lady and her even older mother invited us into their home to get dry and wait til the rain has stopped. But not only that, they also put their freshly baked plum cake on the table. My Mum got coffee and for me there was a hot chocolate. I remember it til today, although it was 50 years ago. Such kindness.

the comments are just as great as the video, even moreso.

There was this kid I saw on the bus. He was probably 16 years old and he had fresh cuts all over both of his arms (shoulder to wrist). I used to self harm so this really struck my heart. I saw him about to get off the bus. Although I was 2 bus stops away from my stop I decided last minute to get off the bus with him. The bus doors actually closed in my face but I looked to the front at the bus driver and he reopened the doors for me. I got off the bus and I nervously stood beside this kid. I had no idea what to say. Finally when I got the courage I said “are you ok?” He replied “yeah... um... what do you mean?” So I said “well I just saw your arms and I wanted to make sure you were ok. Are you doing ok?” He was so caught off guard. He said “Oh... well it’s just been a really hard week.” “Yeah, do you want to talk about it? I know you are probably waiting for your bus but do you want to come for a walk with me?” I asked. He said yes. So we went for a walk and I found out what was going on. He was in a group home because some problems with his mom but he really missed her. I encouraged him that someday things will get better for him and to hold on. I told him I used to cut myself too but things got better for me and now I’m in college and I’m doing what I want. We reached the end of the street and I told him that I believed in him and I promised things would get better for him. Then I asked him if I could give him a hug and he said yes. So I gave him a big hug and we went our separate ways. I’ve never seen him since but I still think of him all the time. I hope you’re ok kid ❤️❤️ someone is always thinking of you. You’ll always have a place in my heart.

I was 28 in Rio de Janeiro, and I saw a pregnant homeless woman with a child. She was sleeping on the street on a bed of cardboard. I was drunk at the time so I didn't talk to her and scare her kids, but when I got a little further away I burst into tears. I had just spent so much money drinking and eating at a restaurant with my girlfriend, and it felt so superficial and wrong that I had spent so much on something so meaningless. I walked a bit further down the street, and bought some takeaway, brought it back, but she was gone, and I never got the chance to give her that meal.

The one stranger I constantly remember, was a dainty, beautiful, blonde French girl from "Paree". I met her in an Irish pub in Sofia, Bulgaria whilst backpacking when I was 24. She told me she was 17 years old and I asked her how she was brave enough to travel on her own at that age, but she said that she was in Sofia with her 'Faza' (father), not on her own. However, on that night she was out in the city on her own with two older men. I was quite naive at 24 but I still I had an irksome feeling about those two men. One was huge and muscular and had a motorbike. The other was older and slimey. She said they were her friends. I asked for her phone number and later they all left. It took me years to figure out why that evening made me so uncomfortable. That big guy on the motorbike was a predator. A PREDATOR. It was in his eyes and the way he looked at her like he was going to consume her. He was either high on drugs or high on the close proximity of the dainty blonde girl who was his prey. He was creeping on her and I regret so much, not taking her away from them. I believed her when she said she could handle herself and that the two men were her friends. I worry to this day that she was about to be attacked, trafficked, or was a human trafficking victim already. I have searched data bases for missing children to see if I could recognise her face. I regret the loss of her phone number with my old phone. I hope all my fears for this young woman were imagined, are you out there blonde Parisian beauty? Do you remember meeting me in that Irish pub? Are you okay?

No strangers ever did anything drastic, just the small acts of kindness are what I remember. I was getting off of my school van to my bus stop, and when I realized my bag was open, it was too late. All of the papers were blown out, and these 2 nice ladies by the bus stop without hesitation help me put my papers back in my bag. Nice people

4:27 God I had an experience really similar. I was coming back from school, I remember i was passing by a footbridge. And then a girl, hugs me and whispers "Keep walking, he has been following you" Once we got to the other side, i saw a man walking by near us. Girl If you're watching this, Thank you.

@candy girl you like candies? Here is one🍡

I remember a girl that I had met at Disney Land. I'm a huge pin trader so I went up to any pin trading stand I could find. I found this really cool pin stand that did a mystery pin trade so I took my opportunity and looked at it but the girl was in front of me so I waited till she was done. She turned around and looked at me and with out missing a beat she said, "Woah! You're really pretty!" and I was so surprised that all I could get out was a small thank you but sometimes I remember her randomly and smile to myself. I remember her so clearly though because that day I didn't feel pretty and I was hot and sweaty so I just didn't think I looked good that day but she thought otherwise and it made me really happy.

My heart ❤️🥺 I completely agree. I could read these comments for the rest of my life.

i was 11 when i was sexually abused. i only told my best friend bc of how scared i was, she later told the principal what happened to me bc she knew how much it was hurting me. they investigated, and eventually the guy went to jail. however there was a lady that was brought to the school that specifically asked for me. in my head i already knew what it was about, she shared her own stories and told me how strong i was. she read me a book called “the giving tree”, a book she used to read with her daughter. she told me i was a survivor, even wrote it down on the inside cover. i still have the book till this day, every now and then i read it to myself and remember how much that moment meant, bc even if my own family didn’t believe me at least she did. if i could thank her today i would.

When my son was 11 he couldnt sleep or eat for days. I was really worried and a few days later he confessed that one of his classmates was dating a teacher. She made him promise not to say anything BUT he was really worried about her and saw that she was scared of him. He made me promise not to tell anyone but I went to the sheriffs dept. we live in a VERY small town and I found out that a son of his was a Sheriff as well. I was scared BUT they investigated and he ended up getting arrested. the lil girl thanked me later. I explained to my son that something bad could have happened to her if I stayed quiet and he understood.

Lettie Navarro “dating”? More like ‘statutory rape’. Dating is where two people who are attracted to each other spend time together to see if they also can stand to be around each other most of the time, if this is successful they develop a relationship.

I was in Amsterdam in 2006, standing in an alley listening to the bells in the Zuiderkerk tower. A young couple walked up and stopped and began listening too. When the bells stopped we had a brief conversation about appreciating the things that have always been in your everyday life that seem to fade into the background. I often hope that they still stop and listen and think of that American kid that made them hear the beauty of the bells again. ❤
