Went to the Cheesecake Factory after a jazz game sometime around Thanksgiving. Donovan Mitchell was there with his mom and sister a few tables away. When we went to pay for our food our waiter let us know he had taken care of the check for the whole table. There was about 15 of us there!
Our family was in the middle of finding out through blood tests to confirm our third miscarriage in a row. Went to Costa Vida and ordered more food than normal, to drown sorrows. 3 meals for me, hubby and 12 year old son, drinks chips salsa and queso. Got to the window and someone paid for all of it.
Old friend said early one morning "let’s go get thank you cards and give to strangers". Interestingly the most gratifying act. The smile on the faces of strangers. Found out that friend died by gun violence this past Monday. RIP Natalie Thurber.

Not sure if this classifies. But I took my 9 year old son to Walmart to use the coin star machine. He was so excited. While we were walking in his bag broke and his change went EVERYWHERE! I was so embarrassed. And so was he. So many people stepped up to help us clean it all up! It was so awesome!
I was at Walmart last weekend buying groceries for my family for the week and stuff for my little girls birthday party and the guy behind me in line randomly asked to buy my groceries. I was having a bad day and it took me by surprise so much that I started bawling! I kept telling him thank you but Istill don''t feel like he knows how grateful I am for his kindness. I want to pay it forward soon and do it for someone else!
I hiked across the Grand Canyon and my group left me. I didn’t have enough energy to hike back across so I was stranded on the opposite side of the Grand Canyon. I didn’t have my wallet and it was $80 to take a shuttle back. This nice guy came up and asked if I needed anything and I sheepishly asked for $60 and he gave me $90! No questions asked.

My family struggled hard the last few months of 2019 & some random person knocked on our door one day with a $500 Visa gift card. We were sure no one knew of our struggles. Brought us to tears.
One time I left my purse on top of my car and when I got to my destination realized I did not have it. I''ve given up but later on that afternoon, man knocked on my door and handed me my purse and said he''d gathered all the contents that were all over the road. GRATEFUL

I was sitting at a stoplight one day And a guy on a motorcycle pulled up alongside me. He tapped on my window. I was a little scared to roll it down, but I did crack it just enough to hear what he has trying to say. He kindly let me know that my tail light was out. I said, thank you. Rolled up my window and told
