Make Someone’s Day

 

“I’m sorry to bother you, but I’ve had a really rough day. Do you want to go to Disneyland with me today?” Those words would obviously make someone’s – anyone’s – day. That question certainly made the day of Mr. Good, a 100-year-old veteran, when Isaiah Garza walked up to him on the street and uttered those words.

They may have started out as strangers, but who wouldn’t become fast friends after experiencing a full day of the magic that is Disneyland? It’s not called the Magic Kingdom for nothing!

It is interesting to note that while Mr. Good is a centenarian, Isaiah isn’t. He’s a 49-year-old YouTuber who had a hard life himself. He was homeless and now enjoys sharing his good fortune making other people’s days.

How much of your 100:100 is spent in service to friends, family, community – and even strangers? When was the last time you made someone’s day? It’s something we can all think about, and hopefully act upon. And the good news is that when you make their day, you most likely will make your own as well. It’s the ultimate win-win!

During their time together Isaiah asked Mr. Good if he was having fun. Mr. Good began to cry and said that he never imagined such a thing happening. He thought those days were behind him. He said it was one of the best days of his life.
