Saying something nice to people just to make them feel good, teaming up with a street musician, or helping someone in need without thinking — are all things people do out of kindness. The people from our compilation know a lot of ways to make the world a better place. And it definitely doesn’t take any superpowers or a magic wand.

“The older man was playing his flute for money by the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland, then the younger guy walked up and pulled a flute out of his coat and joined him (who carries a flute?). It was sweet and the older man earned a lot more money after that.”

“I left some chocolate in a hotel with a note saying, ’That’s for you, have a great day.’ This is what I got in return.”
