It doesn't take a pessimist to realize we live in a fallen world.

Bad news sells. Lies, rumors, and negativity spread like wildfire, and no matter how successful we may strive to be, there is no escaping the inevitable disappointment and heartbreak, which is deeply interwoven with every human experience.

But there's still hope.

While the world may have its flaws, there are still a lot of good things happening among many kind strangers in the world. Whether they're simple acts of kindness or heroic feats that require considerable effort, courage, and commitment, much of the good goes unseen.

If you need encouragement and inspiration on how YOU can make your world a better place, I'm going to share 50 heartwarming stories (all pulled from r/HumansBeingBros on Reddit) that prove there's still hope for humanity.
