In a time when negativity and hate spills through the news,
an elderly couple is going viral for their selfless good deed.
While waiting for the train at the Lindbergh Center MARTA
station in Atlanta one day, the wife noticed a younger gentleman struggling to
fix his necktie.
The caring lady quickly turned to her husband and asked him
to offer some help. Without hesitation, he quickly adjusted the stranger’s tie,
just like the police officer who helped a senior citizen with the same wardrobe
malfunction.
Fellow commuter, Redd Desmond Thomas, witnessed the
heartwarming moment and shared it on his Facebook page.
“I was some distance away (but close enough to hear the
exchange), and got even closer to snap this candid photo of the tutorial in
progress before hopping on the train,” Thomas wrote.
While the people photographed haven’t been identified, the
image quickly went viral and touched hundred of thousands of people across the
world

As Redd
Desmond Thomas sat at the Lindbergh Center station in Atlanta, he witnessed a
compassionate moment between two strangers and immediately shared it on his
Facebook.
The
image (below) shows an older gentleman helping a younger man fix his tie.
“The
young guy sitting down was struggling with his tie. The woman in the red coat
noticed, and asked, ‘Do you know how to tie it properly?’ The young guy said,
‘No ma’am.’ She taps her husband and says, ‘Come to this side [her right side;
he was standing on her left side] and teach this young man how to tie his
tie,’” Thomas wrote.
“The
older gentleman moved without hesitation [almost a reflex response—] and gave
him a step-by-step tutorial; then — afterward — the elder gentleman watched the
young gentleman repeat the steps and show him that he had it,” he added. “I was
some distance away (but close enough to hear the exchange), and got even closer
to snap this candid photo of the tutorial in progress before hopping on the
train. I LOVE THIS!”
And
Thomas wasn’t the only one blown away by this.
The
photo was shared by more than 150,000 people in just a couple of days. It was
liked by more than half a million.
Hundreds
of people also commented with positive thoughts. Some even wrote that it
restored their faith in humanity, as you’ll see below.
With so
much negativity in the world, this beautiful moment between strangers proves
that Good Samaritans are still all around us.
