    Loved the prison friendship story. Our justice system is imperfect.
  • @sharistrazz3313
    BEST LESSON IN LIFE: DO NOT lay down for the night and think... " I'll watch 'Steve Heartman's ON THE ROAD' video and unwind to fall asleep." Nope! Lesson learned!! 😁 Because I started watching and ended up watching MULTIPLE VIDEOS. THEN I LOOK AT THE CLOCK.... It us NOW 10:18a and I didn't get a wink of sleep!!! 😲🫢🤣 I laughed, I cried, I didn't look away for 1 second. That is how GREAT these stories are!!! ❤👏
  • @b.visconti1765

    I've never seen Steve Hartman til just now. I just wanted to say thank you, this montage has literally given me hope for the 1st time in a year.
  • @brendapaul5950
    Yes, those babies are beautiful, identical twins❤ May their innocence continue...
  • As all the Steve's segments, they're are wonderful and are "food" for the soul. I laughed and cried and my heart feels full of joy, gratitude and love. 😊😢 ♥️

  • @mariebrooks7341
    This is the sweetest story and so relevant to just be kind to each other.
  • These are all wonderful, but I’m struck by all those men who came together to repair that woman’s house. That’s the definition of gentlemen.
  • @catsario7512
    Absolutely stunning compilation of heartwarming stories. Thankyou for reminding us there are still many wonderful people in this world, despite the sad, violent and hateful things going on in our world. Thankyou Jesus for the hope! ❤️🙏🏼🙌
  • @brendametube
    Watching Steve Hartman is like going to university for how to become a wonderful human being. The only problem I have with his videos is it’s very difficult to get through any of them without crying. Thank you Steve! on behalf of all the people in the world who want to be genuine, caring, and loving people… We love you!
  • I loooove these stories soooooooooooo much. Great food for the soul.
  • @EBerry-hy5es
    Loved the sneakers story about the school kids. Very heartwarming 💕
  • I'm facing very hard times & then this show keeps popping up on my TV & is so inspiring. Thankyou so much CBS & Steve Hartman for this uplifting program in this time there is so much negative news about so much hateful behaviour going on in America & tearing us apart. This is an Award winning show!❤❤❤
  • @bmariak6218
    Been having a rough morning. Very sad. I was randomly browsing YouTube just looking for anything to take my mind off my worries. These stories have me smiling and hopeful. Thank you Steve for being such a nice guy!
  • @Zhana808
    All of these stories are so beautiful and heartfelt, but the story of Dan and Norah had me balling. What a special little girl. She came into his life when he really needed it, and I’m sure he’ll always be looking down and watching over her. Thank you so much for all these amazing stories. This world needs more love and kindness 🙏❤️
