What’s a moment when a stranger completely restored your faith in people?

There are too many moments for me to think of just one. This may be because I look for them when I am out and about. The person who holds the door open for the next person. The one who is watching for those who are on their phones and not paying attention. The person in the line who has many items and sees the person behind them only has one and lets them go first.

These things (unfortunately) don’t happen as much as they used to. I remember a time when taking into account the people around you was the norm. When you said ‘Hi’ or nodded your head to others you made eye contact with, regardless if you knew them or not. When common curtesy was actually common. When it wasn’t a thing to be known for politeness, people were just polite.

Now, I try and BE that person for whom people can restore their faith in human kind. If we all just did one nice thing for a stranger every day maybe, just maybe this wouldn’t be a daily prompt because it would be the norm.
