9 Acts Of Kindness From Total Strangers That Will Melt Your Heart

8. The Homeless Proving That They Have The Biggest Hearts

There are so many opportunities to help people when you're walking down the street. If it's raining and you have extra room under your umbrella, why not help someone else stay dry? If someone is struggling with their shopping bags, why not help them carry them to the car? But if someone is hungry, why not give them a sandwich or a hot drink if it's cold? Many of you will not understand the struggles of what it is like to be homeless. To not have a sense of belonging, safety and warmth or even a family to care for is truly heartbreaking. But it isn't just these things that are difficult, it's not knowing when your next meal will come or figuring out a way to change your situation. There have been numerous examples of homeless people shining and making someone's day when it really should be the other way around. Billy Ray Harris was living on the streets when he found a $4000 engagement ring in the cup which he was using to collect change. The ring belonged to Sarah Darling whose husband set up a fundraising page for the Billy who returned it to her. The page raised over $180,000 from strangers all over the world and Billy is now off the streets since being able to afford a house.
