When was the last time you witnessed a random act of kindness that warmed your heart?
Well, Megan Ashley had the privilege of seeing one on a recent flight.
And she made sure to share it with the world.
As Megan was flying from San Diego to Nashville with Southwest Airlines, she noticed a 96-year-old woman who seemed a bit uneasy.
It turns out, the elderly lady hadn’t flown in a whopping 15 years and was feeling quite anxious.
But, as fate would have it, she had a “flight angel” sitting next to her.
A kind gentleman who understood her fear and offered his support without hesitation.
Throughout the flight, this gentleman gladly took her hand, letting her hold onto him tightly, and soothing her with his reassuring voice.
He patiently explained everything that was happening during takeoff and even comforted her when things got a bit bumpy.
But his kindness didn’t end there.
He helped her stand up and walk down the aisle when she needed to use the restroom.
And when it was time to disembark, he held her bag, ensuring her safe exit from the plane. What touched Megan the most was how he went the extra mile. The elderly lady got confused at one point, mistaking her daughter for her sister. But her flight angel stayed by her side until she reunited with her family member.
This heartwarming incident serves as a reminder that not all news is bad news. Despite the occasional negative stories, there are still countless compassionate individuals out there, like this flight angel, who restore our faith in humanity. So, if this story resonated with you, spread the kindness by sharing it with others. Let’s make the world a better place, one act of compassion at a time.
