This young man was walking ten miles from home to work, and back, every day. Seeing it, his coworkers pitched in and bought him this car. And so, again, we see humans helping one another voluntarily.

That said, this gift was not given indiscriminately. It was only given once the young man proved determination and responsibility to his coworkers. Just whining that he walked so far would not have worked: These people had limited assets of their own, and weren’t about to deplete them for an uncertain cause… nor should they.

So, what we’re seeing in this case is virtue rewarded, and it’s a beautiful thing to see.

Before going back to the mundane, think about someone doing something impressive, as the young man in the photo did… something that made you believe in his or her solidity, enough to gather your friends, spend some of your scarce assets, and help them significantly. Spend a few minutes on it.
