Tell Me Something Good 12/2/21

The news these days is often depressing at worst and frustrating at best. It’s easy to let it get us down. Never fear… The News Blender has you covered. Once a week we feature Something Good and, in return, all you have to do is tell us something good that has happened to you this week, something you are thankful for, a joke, a cute animal story, an inspiring tale of heroics, a Random Act of Kindness… SOMETHING good

Another hodgepodge of smiles. If there’s nothing here to make you smile, I suspect nothing will.

When your cup of tea is too hot..

Sound on.. 😅 pic.twitter.com/eY4jTWEpnz

This loving son-in-law collected @PatrickMahomes cards for years & when he recently sold a very valuable one, he says he & his wife knew exactly what to do with it—pay off his mother-in-law's mortgage. He says she is the most caring, kind person he knows. pic.twitter.com/5Q891p90NV

On October 23, Brian was behind the bench doing his job when a Seattle fan knocked on the glass behind him, trying to get his attention.

In hockey, you can’t hear through the glass, so the fan held up her phone with a message.

You can see her on the game’s video replay. pic.twitter.com/clsxZB9B6u

Brian read the message through the glass, and figured he may as well get it checked out.

Nadia was right, and Brian was able to get it removed before it spread.

It saved his life.

He wanted to say thank you —but there was a problem.pic.twitter.com/ysCwBYruDA

Brian’s call for help quickly went viral. Thousands of people started trying to find Nadia.

Think about that: Random strangers helping random strangers, just so Brian could say thank you.

It took less than 3 hours to track Nadia down.

And then — something better happened. pic.twitter.com/qaSVX9HiIb

And it gets better.

You know how Nadia was studying to become a doctor? Both teams got together and decided to surprise her again, this time with $10,000 in tuition.

This is the moment she found out.

You can hear entire arena erupting in applause.

The world can be a difficult place, but it doesn’t have to be.

Kindness is everywhere. In this case, it saved someone's life and helped a young woman through med school.

Those are the headlines we need.

And those are the headlines we'll keep giving you.
