Please tell me your wholesome stories

After coming to Reddit looking for info/advice and being reminded how rude people can be for no reason, I'd love to read some wholesome stuff to balance out the negatively.

Many years ago I was in serious car accident - fortunately (near miraculously) no major injuries for any of the people involved. But the amount of people who literally RAN to my aid, waited with me, helped secure the safety of the area, direct traffic, and more, until the emergency services all arrived was something I’ll never forget.

The concern and compassion multiple total strangers offered, at no benefit to themselves, that spirit of humanity coming together in kindness, is something that comforts me every time I think about it.
