FOR MANY OF us, it’s been a tough week; a really, really tough week.
If you’ve been affected by the discussion surrounding next Friday’s referendum, you’re definitely not alone.
It’s been draining, anxiety-inducing and just, well, hard on everyone.
With that in mind, we thought it appropriate to see out the week with a selection of tweets that remind you there is a lot of good to be found in your fellow man.
And look, we do already know this, but sometimes we just need a little reminding.
1. This vet.
My darling kitty that I’ve had since I was 4yo is in really bad shape. After 3 1/2 hours at the vet, multiple blood tests/IV fluids/insulin injections and medicine we were worried the bill would be astronomical.

The vet took care of it all. #FaithInHumanityRestored
2. This super-helpful driver.
A driver witnessed me running for the bus, and the driver taking off as I got to the front door. I kept walking, and she got my attention and offered me a ride #faithinhumanityrestored #alreadyregretnottakingheruponit

3. This amazing 10-year-old.
I scolded my 10 year old this morning for putting two of everything in his lunch. I thought he wanted double snacks and treats. Turns out hes been bringing lunch for a friend that can't afford lunch every day, Max has been supplementing him.

I packed the second lunch myself.
4. This incredibly friendly bunch of drinkers.
When you’re at the bar alone and a group of folks welcome you to drink with them like they’ve known you for ages #FaithInHumanityRestored

5. The lady who went above and beyond.
Today I left my binder on top of the car, it it flew off & papers went all over highway 120 lol.. I could only pick up about half but some generous lady who saw me after I left, picked the rest up & brought them to the HS hoping that’s where I went to school #faithinhumanity

6. The mams who just get it.
y’all, there are a group of moms in the middle of campus, giving people hugs who miss their parents and are homesick. 💗😭 #FaithInHumanity

7. It really is the little things.
Man on the train offers me the paper once he's finished reading it - I am instantly in love with him in a platonic way. #kindstrangers

8. When technology conspires against you, but strangers got your back.
A stranger just lend me her laptop so i could finish my assignment. AN ANGEL. #humanityrestored

9. We’re not worthy of dogs, or this lady.
In Walmart & I over hear a lady say she is having a dog party. A party for dogs. She bought a bunch of toys for them. #HumanityRestored

10. Oh, stop.
Just watched a homeless man share part of his sandwich with a squirrel #faithinhumanity

11. More of this, please.
This guy came in and saw our waitress, who has 7 kids, eating their dinner and he paid for their entire meal. He left and I told her her meal was taken care of and she started crying. #faithinhumanity

12. And this, if you wouldn’t mind.
left my windows open and someone taped trash bags over my windows so my car wouldn't get wet😊 #randomkindness

13. This is what we’re talking about.
Shoutout to the guy on my #Delta flight who saw me watching Black Panther over his shoulder and turned on closed captioning #RealMVP

14. Soundness personified.
A complete stranger caught me longingly staring at his packet of mini rolls... and he offered me one!! #kindstranger #sound #miniroll #benicetostrangerstheyresound

And finally….
My sister's fiancé is flying out of Ireland on 25th for a stag. He changed his flight so he could vote. He also offered to pay to change everyone else's w/o saying a word #repealhero #men4yes #together4yes
