    With all the stupidity, hate, violence and lies in today's news and the world, these videos are a great reminder that out there every day, there are great wonderful people doing great doing great wonderful things. It's so very easy to forget this. Nice work, Steve Hartman.
  • I can’t express how important these stories have become to me and my two sons, 17 and 19. We started watching about 3 years ago. We were going through a very rough time. I felt helpless and I couldn’t find anything good to say to my boys…. one sleepless night I typed in “videos of good people and things” into my phone out of pure desperation I did that …. and I’m so glad I did. I’m so greatful these videos exist, the hope, love and joy they provide saved us. Thank you ❤ when our turn and chances come you can be sure we will give back always with love hope and joy ❤

    This is what should be on every news channel daily and in every classroom daily. This is how people were for many many generations. Love and gratitude goes a long way.

    Good to see some 'good news' have happy tears instead of sad ones. Thank you.
  • I teared up at every story, but the story of the young boy whose teacher gave his mother a kidney opened the floodgates. At 44:50 my eyes welled up and I had to pause and take a moment. I am dealing with an out of nowhere stage 4 cancer diagnosis. Beating cancer but now I'm in a wheelchair and can only look upon the mountains I used to climb. Everyone says that I am strong and always cheerful.... but some days when I want to cry, stories like this can open the floodgates of happy tears and not despondency. Thank you CBS Sunday Mornings 🌞!

    The college tuition is as much for the parents that felt like failures for not having the money to send their kids to school.. what a beautiful story
