Rebekka Garvison could feel the passengers’ eyes rolling as she walked toward her seat carrying her newborn, Rylee.
They were flying from Kalamazoo, Michigan, to Fort Rucker, Alabama, where Rebekka’s husband was stationed.
Minutes into the flight, Rylee wailed. A nearby couple glared, so Rebekka moved.
Rylee was still crying when their seatmate, Nyfesha Miller, asked if she could try holding her. Rylee quickly fell asleep in Miller’s arms and stayed that way throughout the flight.
“Nyfesha Miller, you will never understand how happy this act of kindness has made my family,” Rebekka wrote on Facebook.
“You could’ve just been irritated like everyone else, but you held Rylee the entire flight and let me get some rest and peace of mind.” (CBS News)
Acts of kindness, particularly when offered to strangers, make the world a much better place.
When is the last time you did some kind thing for a complete stranger?
If not today, when?
