20 Acts That Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity

You Never Know When That Stranger Will Be You

Turn on the news and chances are you will hear about mass shootings, cyber attacks, terrorism, riots, murders, scams and the list goes on and on. It’s hard nowadays to think that the world is becoming a better place for us all to live. With so much negativity going on some people have become paranoid of strangers and selfish. Rarely do you see a human being do an act of kindness for another without asking for anything in return. But the truth is that there are still good hearted people out there who are willing to risk it all to help someone else in need. As long as one of those people live our faith in humanity will be restored. I encourage you to help a stranger out one day because you never know when that strange will be you.
