15 People Who Were Born to Shine a Ray of Positivity on This World

Rescuing an animal and bringing it to the vet, cleaning the trash in your neighborhood on your day off, and making people laugh are just a few ways we can make the world a better place. No matter how small an act of kindness may be, it has the power to bring a big smile to all our faces and probably make someone’s day.

We know how important it is to be a good example while inspiring other people to do more good, and this is why Bright Side has gathered some mood-lifters specially curated for you.

1. “Rescued an iguana that was stuck in my neighbor’s fence and caught a duckling that had a hurt leg and brought it to a rescue. All in a day’s work.”

2. “My 5-year-old niece stopped her mom from stepping on a little spider and took it outside on her hand instead.”

3. “A bird is currently building a nest in my parents’ shed, so my dad is keeping the door open for the entire summer.”
