It's Not That Hard To Be Nice

Younited Front Pledge

This is something we don't see very often, so I just had to share it. When 18-year-old Jordan Hope saw an elderly man struggling with shoes that were falling apart, he took his own sneakers off and gave them to him. 

The man, known affectionately as Mister Roy, was grieving the recent loss of his wife and facing life’s challenges largely on his own.

Jordan's kindness grew into a friendship with Mister Roy, and he started a GoFundMe campaign to help Mister Roy, raising more than $15,000.

Jordan hopes his actions will encourage others to show a little more compassion. As he put it: "Just be generous, people. It's not that hard to be nice to people, and you never know what they're going through. Just spread the love of God."

Thank you, Jordan. I pledge to keep your goodness in mind and spread God's love as I go through my everyday life.

Thank you for sharing this post. It certainly made my heart happy and brought tears to my eyes.

I really appreciate seeing Jordan showing all of what it looks like to "just be kind."

I will join you in your pledge. It is easy to be kind.
