Can you share some good Samaritan and empathy stories?

These stories are inspiring because they break the barriers of indifference. In our daily lives, we may be so focused on our own problems that we forget about others. But good Samaritan and empathy stories remind us that a small act of kindness can have a huge impact. When we see someone going out of their way to help another, it makes us want to be like that. It makes us realize that we all have the capacity to make a positive difference in someone else's life, whether it's by helping them physically, emotionally, or just being there for them. And that's what makes these stories truly inspiring.
