50 Times Strangers Acted Unbelievably Wholesome And It Made These People’s Day
Sometimes a wholesome experience is just around the corner. All we have to do is let it into our lives.
On April 30, author Mitali Perkins published a tweet, describing the unexpected encounter she had with a random teen. "I was walking alone yesterday when an unsmiling teen on a bike whizzed by," Perkins wrote. "Our eyes met. He circled back, and I couldn't help bracing myself for our encounter. 'Hey, lady,' he said gruffly. 'Five ducklings. Under the culvert ahead.' Then he did a wheelie and sped off."
The tweet instantly blew up (as it should) and already has over 138K likes. But most importantly, it has inspired other Twitter users to share their own pleasant moments with strangers. Below are some of the sweetest ones.

He told her he was concerned for her safety and why he was staying so that she wouldn't be creeps out by him sitting and staring, then he kept his distance and left her alone so she knew he was genuine. Sounds like a great guy.

Aw. She seems shy and that must have been hard to come up to her like that. What a sweet girl!

How fortunate they caught you in time. A friend put diesel into her Honda, years ago, and had to replace the engine.

Oh my goodness I love that. I do this to every person I see walking a dog. But I have a fairly non-threatening appearance and I’m feminine. But dogs are cute to everyone!!

As long as you're not in a rival gang, gang members are often very nice and helpful people.

I was heading to training for a new job. We were told from the beginning that if we missed a day, we'd be let go. I'm driving on the freeway when suddenly my van starts pouring white smoke. I pull off..turns out a coolant hose burst. A man stopped in his work truck, proceeds to take the hose off, cut it at the break and re-attached it. Then he put some more coolant and water in my van. I offered him money for it. He said "That's ok. You remind me of my daughter and, if she were in trouble, I'd want someone to stop and help her." He was a great influence as I've stopped to help many people with disabled vehicles since then. I'm just sad I never got his name.

So many positive teens!! I was in a burger joint some time ago, and a group of young people were celebrating an 18th birthday. The young man explained to all his friends individually and in the open why exactly he loved them and why they are wonderful people. I got so warm and fuzzy inside :)
