Crowded spaces, unexpected delays, and the usual chaos can make people angry. But on this day, one person decided to show exceptional kindness, akin to the spirit of, instead of getting frustrated.

Here’s what happened.

She wrote:

I love looking for the good in the world!

As I flew up to Washington today, I had this cute little 94 year old lady get on my plane. She was frail and had a hard time getting back to her seat. There was a bit of a confusion to where she was supposed to be seated. In first class this wonderful Gentleman saw her plight and flagged me down. He said, “can you please get her and put her in my seat and I will take hers.” He walked back with me to get her and take her to first class. She was so touched. The woman gave him a big hug and said “Never in my 94 years has someone done that for me. Thank you young man.” She had tears of gratitude.

HE PULLED HER OUT OF A BURNING BUILDING—AND THEN SHE NEVER LEFT HIS SHOULDER We thought she was gone. The fire had already swallowed most of the second floor by the time we got the call. A warehouse—empty, supposedly. Just a leftover shell filled with forgotten boxes and bad insulation. Turned out, not everything inside was forgotten. He was the first one through the smoke. Duffield—helmet #31, the guy with the mustache who never says much but always shows up. A minute passed. Then three. Just when the chief was about to call him back, he emerged—coughing, covered in soot… …and holding the tiniest, shivering kitten under his jacket. She was singed, shaking, scared out of her mind—but alive. He wrapped her in a towel and sat with her the entire ride back to the station. Didn’t let anyone else near her. Said, “She’s had enough strangers for one day.” We figured he’d take her to a vet. Maybe drop her at a shelter. But that night, she curled up in his helmet and fell asleep. The next morning, she rode his shoulder like she belonged there. She’s been with us ever since. Eats from his lunchbox. Sleeps in his locker. Hops up on his shoulder every time the alarm bell rings, like she’s making sure he comes back. But here’s the part nobody talks about— She only purrs when he’s holding her. And there’s one spot on her tiny paw that’s forever blackened, like a little smudge of ash that won’t wash away. He calls it her reminder. But every now and then, I catch him staring at it. Like he’s the one who needs it.⬇️ (continue reading in the first cᴑmment)
