17 Reasons Why People Don’t Always Suck
Because someone has probably “spotted” you when you were broke or your stupid card wasn’t working, saving you from the ultimate social embarrassment.
17. Because this morning, you probably took a form of transportation to get somewhere and people made the car you were driving. Or someone was driving the bus, cab, or train that you were riding in. (And if you walked to work, people built that sidewalk too.)
16. Because someone probably said or will say, “Please” and “Thank you” to you today and actually mean it.
15. Because one time or another, you might have had to change your plans in some shape or form, and the people who were affected, were sympathetic.
14. Think of your favorite bakery. A human being probably made your favorite dessert or batch of baked goods. (Or at least pushed the button on something to make it happen.)
13. Because you probably have lost something in your lifetime that you thought was gone forever. Only for somebody to later turn it in and have your faith in humanity restored.

5. Because recently a barista or bartender or waitress was able to take your order perfectly and make life a little more pleasant for you that day.
4. Because people wake up every day, hours before you do, making your life convenient in more ways than you can think of as you go along your merry way.
3. Because even when the world seems to be in chaos and hatred seems present in so many ways, someone, somewhere, at any given moment, is doing an act of kindness just because.
2. Because no matter how good or bad your day, week, year, and life currently is, you still have it within your power to do even the smallest act of kindness for someone else.
1. Because at some point today, someone will think about you, and wish you well, and hope that you’ll always know just how wonderful and loved you are.
