15 Times Our Faith In Humanity was Instantly Restored

For some, it’s beyond explanation. They can’t discern a reason or motive and aren’t about to try. For others, it’s as simple as insanity, with the common catchphrase insinuating that everyone’s gone crazy. Some blame politics. Others point to philosophical differences…but one thing’s for certain: 2016 has been on heck of a year. Between elections and public embarrassment, from the deaths of dozens of famous faces to the daily loss of life due to war, terrorism, and crime, it appears that everything is ca-ca-kook-koo and society has gone catawampus. There’s no hope…or at least, there doesn’t seem to be.

But after you look over the 15 stories that were big here in 2016, you realize that, sometimes, it’s the viral that can bring about some relief. In almost each case, a selfless act has lead to a real revolution. It may not be on a national or even global scale, but a single act of kindness is always better than one of harm. In fact, these stories are so rich in reward that they might just have your rethinking your perspective and believing in humanity once again. Surely, something will come along to challenge it, but all you have to do is remember what happened here and…just…exhale. See for yourself.
