heartwarming

Bro IRL achievement unlocked. 

This one never fails to leave you with a can't-help-it-grin. 

What would you do for loaf?

It's always touching to hear someone who was once filled with hate admit that they were wrong and use their mistakes to try to help others to do the same. 

This solider shared a touching story about how his formally racist squadmate overcame his hate for love.

These are TOO precious. Shoutout to the girl asking for her brother who was getting bullied at school to get new friends to stand up for him. Talk about selfless. Low-key faith in humanity restored thanks to her. 

We're big fans of Mark Hamill. From that one time he force choked a Trump staffer on Twitter, to that other time he left an epic, albeit traumatizing voicemail as The Joker.....the dude's a modern day hero. Now we have another reason to love the sh*t out of him: this short but unbelievably sweet tale about the man himself, stepping up in a profound way to create an unforgettably, meaningful experience for a kid who was tragically dying from an incurable illness is a direct shot to the feels. 

Dan Harmon proved himself, yet again, to be a stand up dude after he responded to a young fan who was asking him for advice on how to deal with depression. 

This is the kind of Thanksgiving tale that warms the heart. It was just around this time last year when this grandma mistakenly texted a Thanksgiving dinner invitation to the wrong number. Let's just say the complete strangers handled the ensuing situation perfectly. Oh, and before anyone goes getting all upset: Grandma definitely changed her number after the conversation went viral last year! 

This widowed Aussie old timer got more than he bargained for, in the best way possible, when he posted an ad to a local website looking for a new 'fishing mate'. 

The internet got a hold of his ad and recirculated it on sites like twitter and imgur, and before long he had been flooded with support and offers to go fishing.

Someone even went and started a gofundme for the old bloke to send him on a fishing trip.

From the description:

"We're just a couple of guys who have heard Rays story and want to see him have a good fishing trip.
At the moment the cost is to cover his return flight from Adelaide to Sydney and back home, accommodation, food expenses and any costs associated to get him fishing. Anything left will go to Ray himself or a charity if he chooses as such.
Should we raise above the required limit we can look at sending Ray around the country to fish with a few different people."

It's always nice to see people rally behind a good cause

On a dark and saddening day in late November, Hett tweeted a devastating picture that his mother, Figen Murray sent him from a craft fair.

How rare is it that we see a text sent to the wrong person evolve into a heartwarming scenario like this one---and with a Thanksgiving dinner invitation to boot! Jamal Hinton is one lucky dude, and you better believe as soon as he shared the original conversation to Twitter, plenty of other hungry teens were ready to beg for their invitations. Fortunately, the numbers have been disconnected!
