With the current state of the world how it is, it seems as if we're constantly surrounded by stressful, negative news. Even through social media we are bombarded with articles and breaking news on the most recent tragedy or corrupt governmental action. Hard as it may seem to believe, there are still good people in the world who create random acts of kindness every day, though the media sadly usually doesn't consider these acts newsworthy enough to make it on our news feeds. So if you're like me, and you're one more protest coverage away from deleting your Facebook profile, then here's a few examples of good souls to get you through this week.
