I'm glad I saw your comment before I was about to leave mine. I was going to comment and ask what is newsworthy about a person offering to hold another person's child for a little bit to help them? I mean, it's kind and all, but to make news?
Right! I was wondering why this went viral and made into such a big deal like it was. Dont get me wrong I am sure in her eyes this was major because of the type of day she was having. People in general just get such a bad rap like there is not kind, generous people still left in the world. More people help in situations than not I feel. I wonder if they were the same race would this have gotten the same type of recognition. Which is just pathetic if so. I applaud him though.
@Nilo Cantonjos It is like this in America; it's like this all over the world: Regardless of where you go there will be real people, kind, warm hearts; just a matter of what you look for.
@Messenger4Jesus I'm sure Jesus would appreciate your negativity and the idea that YOU think you can determine what is considered miraculous. Change of subject, I have an identical twin sister who lives states away and I haven't noticed any other twin picking up on that but you never know.
@@peacheskong2245 His skin tone shouldn't matter but I guess its because you hear so much negativity about the AA population. He's a nice guy and it should not have been about anything else. It's so sad that in these times people still focus so much about race.
I remember the young kids who followed a guy who'd snatched a girl, until he gave up and put her down. No thought of themselves, only thinking of what might happen if they let him walk away with her. Righteous IS the right word.
@Bajan John Doe Well said. My grandmother taught me that love is the only thing of value that we can take with us when we leave this world. Yet by its very nature, love lingers where a loving person has lived and in the lives they touched. You can feel it long after their physical form has crumbled and if you hold on to that love and add your own to it, then you'll see that love cannot be constrained by death and that the love inside each of us is indestructible, immutable and eternal.
CarlThrone:The kindest, and bravest soldiers I have ever known? Black men. It's called the seven percent rule Carl. World wide ninety three percent of us are kind loving, and generous. Sadly, it's the other seven percent that make it bad. Be well.
Well said. My dad was black and in the late 80s an old white woman tried to secretly take me out of my dad’s car cuz she was convinced he kidnapped me. I screamed at the top of my lungs, “THAT’S MY PAPA!!! PAPA PAPA!!!” and he came running out the store and almost murdered that woman for putting her hands on me. We’ve come a long way, but not long enough for everyone to see a black man with a white looking child as “normal.” I actually didn’t understand the incident that happened to me as a child until I was older when my innocence goggles were ripped off. Wouldn’t it be nice if we never lost that pure, unfiltered love and acceptance we have as children?
This man was my WR coach in 9th grade, He always treated me with equal respect, even though I was barely 5ft tall and scarcely got to play... Coach goodlett I’ll never forget you thank you
Shows that racism is taught, That beautiful baby boy didn't care whether the person holding him was black or white, Children are truly colour blind until they are taught to hate.
Racism and hate have a thin line and even though we can never get rid of either we can TEACH our children that color has NO consequences. At all. Only actions.

I was just thinking that! But to be honestly, if you look around, you can notice these little things do happen all the time. Anything from giving somebody a jumpstart when their car doesn’t start in a parking lot, to paying for someone’s meal/coffee/etc... it seems like the news just wants to report awfulness to keep everyone divided and in fear. And that is why I’m watching videos like this, sometimes you need a break from all the “gloom and doom”

Coming in way late to this video but as a fellow twin mom, I had to comment. This means more than anyone could know! Being a momma in general is so stressful, but being a twin mom bring an entire other level of maneuvering and stress! I’ve also had strangers help me a few times, with simple things like help me put me put my double stroller in trunk, and I even had a lady pull my car up in the rain at target. Really brings life to the phrase “it takes a village”
He doesn't realize what makes this such a big deal...doubtless because he is a kind and compassionate person all the time. But a single act of kindness sometimes not only redeems a bad day, but can save a life. Why does our society worship celebrities for merely being outrageous or notorious when there are real heroes and people worth emulating like this man out there in the real world?

He was raised by someone special. .hes gonna make it big in life and whatever woman is lucky enough to get him she better treat him right hes gonna be one hell of an awesome husband and father🙏🙏💙💚🙏🙏💋💋💋
I understand what you are saying but she was totally stressed had just been in an accident, worried for her children and he took a moment to help. Pretty cool. He even said I don't understand what the big deal is. But I have been so stressed before and two kids running around feelings of loosing it. So I can see her point of appreciation.
Pam Semones ,Pam ,you are so right "Be a John" I am happy you agree ,caring for one another .You never know when someone will.help you unconditionally one day ,it's something you never forget.You are right ,it is very easy to walk away .and never look back not caring about the situation that person might be in ,for a second those who walk away ,put yourself in there place. No.matter how simple the act is ,its showing someone there is someone actually who cares .And ask nothing in return.What a wonderful feeling .Gloria Karam

I respect every religious viewpoint equally, but personally I believe that while a divine force exists, he allowed our world to operate on it's own, like Enlightenment thinkers believe. So I think the credit should go to John, because it was his choice, and as an independent being, he made the choice to take time out of his day to show kindness. However, I understand this may not be viewed by everyone, and I'm open to any religious viewpoint. Just stating my opinion.
This man is the face of America. It is also sad we make such a big deal out of something done without expectation of recognition. Just a community. God Bless this man and the family.
CeCe Kansas ,CeCe ,you are undoubtedly a beautiful person inside and out .To say this is beautiful.No.matter how simple it was ,it was definitely a act of kindness.I was in a store one day checking out,there was a child who didn't have enough money to.pay for what he had .This child had more sense to recognize my small.act of kindness than you idiot adults to see what John did .The little one turned to me gave me the biggest hug ,a beautiful smile ,and said ,thank you ! Instead of you downing John be one .Gloria Karam
Gloria Karam Awesome! Believe it or not, that child will remember you as you probably made his day. Kudos to you for being such a wonderful person. Happy Holidays!
Who else loves acts of kindness being shown on the news? We need to see more things like this especially in times such as these. All we see when we turn on the news is death and disaster. Its good to be reminded that humanity and goodness existed.
You'll probably never read this John, , but I've got to put it out there in the universe and say thank you for your kindness. I just had a wonderful experience with Enterprise as well in Bridgeton, Missouri, so this is a compassionate company. He is such an inspiration and a true gentleman as well as a caring human being!! Thank you John!! #beajohn💚
Jennifer Johnson You my dear lady have earned yourself another subscriber. I just get tickled pink when I see a person recognize and appreciate a simple act of human decency.
Still beautiful and even more poignant 4 years later. Who's here in 2021 getting choked up again over this story? I hope John and that mother of twins are doing well!
I am a twin also!(lol) I have a twin brother. We were born August 1971👶🏾👶🏾. I definitely would have help this beautiful mother also🌷. Those twin boys are a blessing now and are going to be more of a blessing during their teen years and adult tears to Mommy and society🙏🏿💞✝️
JordynnTaste MySugarr EXACTLY!!! This should be a reminder to ALL that "WE ARE ALL CONNECTED." This mom realized that and so did her baby!!! Love, and Peace to everyone!!! 💖💖💖
JordynnTaste MySugarr helping a mother and a little baby is Right regardless of color. A person would have to be a super demon to deny help to a mother and a baby.
What a beautiful example of kindness! He was very thoughtful and caring. I love that she recognized that and shared that moment on social media. Even the fact that he chose to donate his Enterprise reward was beautiful. It really brightens up my day to see stories like this. Thank you so much for sharing them! ❤️🙌🙌🙌
Let’s add some context do people can understand why this was such a kindness. This man could have lost his job. So many like him have lost their jobs for reasons similar to this. Amen to his kindness.
👇🏻I also think it's beautiful that he did what he did bless him ,black white mixed or asian is not the point. There is good in every race! He is a twin and he had empathy for a single mum of twins and helped. As a mum of twins myself I have been in the same situation loads of times and not had that help, but I have also had times where people have gone above and beyond for us also. What a lovely man and the thing I love the most the twin he held looked at this stranger picking him up and never cared of his colour just liked seeing a friendly face. See NOBODY is born racist it's taught let's start teaching acceptance and start seeing beauty in the differences we all have! Because we are all different and beautiful in our own right. ☺️
Bonnie Nash so why even state it in your comment if it didnt matter what his skin is you shoul have said that was a nice act of humanity or he a great guy. or however length the comment. because even stating any thing about his skin draw attention to his skin. nice comment not saying what you did is wrong just saying stating it in General actually is doing some what of the opposite of what your trying to do. but your a beautiful person have :)
Americans wallow in these "feel good" fluff pieces, that is just basic decency, in one breath and outright ignore inequality in the next. It truly is boggling to other Countries.
Funny thing is, these 'feel good' pieces are meant to be a relief from the relentless negative reinforcement that gets applied in media of all sorts. This particular story is an indirect plea for racial tolerance, an example of positive reinforcement. The targeted audience is not just people wallowing in self-congratulatory tolerance, but the profanely intolerant. Must be nice that you don't have that in your country.
This is truly heartwarming but the biggest tear jerker is that as his reward, John is giving back to his first sports club. Now that is the real act of kindness.
This is beautiful to see. Yes, it’s “just an act of kindness” and that’s what makes it so special. John, thank you for giving positive energy to us all during this challenging time in our world! 💜
@Ramon Ramirez Oh yeahhh! It sure does. You sound a little jealous or something...? It’s just a nice thing to see. Little acts of positivity can sometimes rub off on us if we let em.
John you are an inspiration. I was taught to be compassionate ,kind ,giving. if some people would just hold a door or give up their seat to a person who needs it. what a better world this would be. just a smile and have a nice day can brighten someone's day. God bless you and keep being who you are. more people should be a John
Mom of twins here. God bless this guy. I've been in that situation and you feel helpless and worthless and as a mother when your babies both need to be held and you can't physically hold them both.

Just because he's a nice guy, doesn't mean he's not always late to work, misses days, etc. There's more to getting a promotion than being nice, and having a video of you holding a baby going viral.
@@Dr.Thomas. u need to calm down.
How beautifully comfortable the kids are with uncle John! Love has no barriers!
I love how The baby is so comfortable in the arms of this kind guy.
I’m sure he was a great help to his parents growing up. He supports the baby’s back so well. ❤️
I'm still friends with many of my customers by doing exactly what John did. What a cool story!
TheSoto YaDig Kudos to you sir! Another good man-God bless you and yours😇💕

“Be a John” and besides, Levi seemed to be very comfortable with John as he showed this baby 👶🏼boy nothing but 💕 love!!!! Love, kindness, & friendships =🙏🏾💜😇
Baby Levi made a new friend ♥️
I like that too but I wonder how shocked John was to find that a day he did something a little out of the ordinary would transform him into a hero.
Twins recognising a fellow twin lol
Be yourself.
💜 LOVE THIS, SO SWEET 🙏💜
This guys last name says it all “Goodlet” he’s a good guy, says his namesake!
Amy Ehlinger aaaaaw! Ikr?
Indeed!!!!

He's good, but only in small things?
I love these type of stories. Dude's got a good heart.

BE A JOHN. I AGREE I WISH THERE WAS MORE CARING FOR ONE ANOTHER. INCLUDING MYSELF. ITS EASY TO KEEP WALKING AND NOT THINK ABOUT A PERSON IN NEED.
I understand what you are saying but she was totally stressed had just been in an accident, worried for her children and he took a moment to help. Pretty cool. He even said I don't understand what the big deal is. But I have been so stressed before and two kids running
around feelings of loosing it. So I can see her point of appreciation.
Pam Semones ,Pam ,you are so right "Be a John" I am happy you agree ,caring for one another .You never know when someone will.help you unconditionally one day ,it's something you never forget.You are right ,it is very easy to walk away .and never look back not caring about the situation that person might be in ,for a second those who walk away ,put yourself in there place. No.matter how simple the act is ,its showing someone there is someone actually who cares .And ask nothing in return.What a wonderful feeling .Gloria Karam
Robert Moss Holy Christ , (not holly) even he would have held the babies
No.matter how simple the act was to you ,to that distressed mom it meant the world to her.And I am.sure she will.never forget John.Robert one day I'm your life ,be a John I am.sure it will make a better person out of you .Think.about one day you will.indeed need a simple act of kindness.Gloria Karam
Petrida Ijumba ,Petrida,God bless you ! You are so right not judging someone by the color of thier skin,but the love in thier hearts.What kind of human being would think otherwise.People like that has no heart.May God Bless you !Gloria Karam
Robert Moss ,How sick you are to judge someone by thier race and not thier character.Why don't you take a minute and look deeply at someone beyond thier color.You definitely will.be surprised.May God bless you ! Open your heart ,not just your eyes.Gloria Karam
I love when she gave GOD the glory!
Amen me too!
I respect every religious viewpoint equally, but personally I believe that while a divine force exists, he allowed our world to operate on it's own, like Enlightenment thinkers believe. So I think the credit should go to John, because it was his choice, and as an independent being, he made the choice to take time out of his day to show kindness.
However, I understand this may not be viewed by everyone, and I'm open to any religious viewpoint. Just stating my opinion.
Yes!!! Amen
Fornax i agree with you 100%. I think john should get the credit shared with his parents for raising him to be a good and kind human being.
Amen, Hallelujah!
Humanity is still alive.
This is so so sweet. Their twins, he's a twin, I'm a twin, and it just touched my heart.
See men like this deserve an applaud. And I give all my respect to you. He would literally be a great dad if he had children of his own
He's very comfortable with babies. Did you see him gently rocking baby while talking?
This man is the face of America. It is also sad we make such a big deal out of something done without expectation of recognition. Just a community. God Bless this man and the family.
yes.
I bet he has one proud mama! Being a twin himself, she probably had many occasions where a little help was a blessing. Good heart on that guy!
no matter how shallow and divided this country has become...good hearts have no color .
Jessica Hidalgo well said
And ur one of them muahh
Jessica Hidalgo
So true
Thank trump his campaign his supporters & his administration for the division not to mention the overwhelmingly majority of white people for division
I agree John is just another thug
What I thought was so cool is the baby really seamed to like the man. He really seamed to respond to him positively. I loved that.
he had a very calm peronality...which is the only thing kids recognize. kids dont see colors unless they are taught to.
This type of stuff the media should be reporting more of spreading a little love in this world God knows we need it in these troubles times🙏🏽 🌍✌🏽
THAT is how you make America great!
Whoever raised him raised him right BBY that was so sweet God bless him 🤗
That's beautiful
CeCe Kansas ,CeCe ,you are undoubtedly a beautiful person inside and out .To say this is beautiful.No.matter how simple it was ,it was definitely a act of kindness.I was in a store one day checking out,there was a child who didn't have enough money to.pay for what he had .This child had more sense to recognize my small.act of kindness than you idiot adults to see what John did .The little one turned to me gave me the biggest hug ,a beautiful smile ,and said ,thank you ! Instead of you downing John be one .Gloria Karam
Gloria Karam Awesome! Believe it or not, that child will remember you as you probably made his day. Kudos to you for being such a wonderful person. Happy Holidays!
Thank you sir the world would be a better place if we all would take the time to share one another's burdens and help each other.... thank you:)
The Darci 13
The Darci 13 you're right
The Darci 13 amen
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍❤
The Darci 13 Amen! Yes so true
Who else loves acts of kindness being shown on the news? We need to see more things like this especially in times such as these. All we see when we turn on the news is death and disaster. Its good to be reminded that humanity and goodness existed.
“She needed someone to help, but she never expected someone like John”. Wtf is that suppose to mean?
I hope it meant that it was just unsuspected that someone would offer to hold her baby lol
😆😆😆
Ricky Ricardo he’s a fucking enterprise worker. Legit no one would expect a random ass worker to help you out with your kid.
Ikr im still trying to figure that out smh
I'm guessing they meant someone who was @wrk, on the clocc.
Beautiful story. I loved John's humble heart as well.
NOW THIS IS HOW WE BRING HEAVEN DOWN TO EARTH. !!!
THANK YOU JOHN IN YOUR PARTICIPATION. IN BRINGING HEAVEN DOWN TO EARTH
Nice!!
Well said
You on LSD?
The LIKES are HUMBLE people & the DISLIKES are UNHUMBLE people...
Do John is also a twin, he clearly understood the demands of two babies needing alone time, cute story.
You'll probably never read this John, , but I've got to put it out there in the universe and say thank you for your kindness. I just had a wonderful experience with Enterprise as well in Bridgeton, Missouri, so this is a compassionate company. He is such an inspiration and a true gentleman as well as a caring human being!! Thank you John!! #beajohn💚
Jennifer Johnson the news is so saturated with sad, negative shit, its good to see something good being shown
+J. Hypolite wow!! Is this YOU? If it is... Blessings to you and your family! If not... Blessings to you JHypolite as well💚
Jennifer Johnson You my dear lady have earned yourself another subscriber. I just get tickled pink when I see a person recognize and appreciate a simple act of human decency.
Jennifer Amen!
Preach!
All we need is a love and kindness. God bless this young man.
The world needs more people like this truly an inspiration.
That’s a stand up man right there!!!
Love seeing people love each other!
Thanks for being awesome John!!
Still beautiful and even more poignant 4 years later. Who's here in 2021 getting choked up again over this story? I hope John and that mother of twins are doing well!
2022 ❤️
2022!!!
2023 ❤
2023 and i just found out that they are dating lol.
@@mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm3153What? They are dating?
We need to see and hear more news stories like this!
Renee Furrer I agree. This time we show more of the love and a little less of the hate.
+Atir X Amen. Praise the holy trinity.
Renee may god bless you for ur positivity and I agree.
May God Bless Those Fellow-Humans For Those Who Have Learned The True Spirit of Kindness Forever
It’s too bad the news and media doesn’t focus solely on the good. The world would be a different place.
#beajohn
St. Michael the Archangel ... the good news doesn’t sell..😤❤️🇨🇦
In the neantime we are poised for the Covid vaccine that changes one's DNA. Doctor's report: www.bitchute.com/video/0j5B3qkMwfvi/
@j H that's not at all what he meant. Look for an argument somewhere else.
I think it's, "Be LIKE John."
I am a twin also!(lol) I have a twin brother. We were born August 1971👶🏾👶🏾. I definitely would have help this beautiful mother also🌷. Those twin boys are a blessing now and are going to be more of a blessing during their teen years and adult tears to Mommy and society🙏🏿💞✝️
John is a keeper.😊
This is how u tell someone has beautiful parents cause they raised a beautiful child
We need more of this kind of people in this world! 🥰👏🙏
👏✌. Good Man.
Sophia Duarte he's a good man for doing what, exactly???
woodahmoo Helping a single white mothers child
JordynnTaste MySugarr EXACTLY!!! This should be a reminder to ALL that "WE ARE ALL CONNECTED." This mom realized that and so did her baby!!! Love, and Peace to everyone!!! 💖💖💖
JordynnTaste MySugarr helping a mother and a little baby is Right regardless of color. A person would have to be a super demon to deny help to a mother and a baby.
“Be a John”. Love it! Thank you for your kind and charitable heart Jon!!!💙
She meant that she never expected to meet someone so KIND and CARING as John... Pretty
simple, let's not read any more into it...
What a beautiful example of kindness! He was very thoughtful and caring. I love that she recognized that and shared that moment on social media. Even the fact that he chose to donate his Enterprise reward was beautiful. It really brightens up my day to see stories like this. Thank you so much for sharing them! ❤️🙌🙌🙌
It should be normal to be kind to others. Lord please help this generation.
His parents should be very proud of him. He's an awesome man.
Let’s add some context do people can understand why this was such a kindness. This man could have lost his job. So many like him have lost their jobs for reasons similar to this. Amen to his kindness.
👇🏻I also think it's beautiful that he did what he did bless him ,black white mixed or asian is not the point. There is good in every race! He is a twin and he had empathy for a single mum of twins and helped. As a mum of twins myself I have been in the same situation loads of times and not had that help, but I have also had times where people have gone above and beyond for us also. What a lovely man and the thing I love the most the twin he held looked at this stranger picking him up and never cared of his colour just liked seeing a friendly face. See NOBODY is born racist it's taught let's start teaching acceptance and start seeing beauty in the differences we all have! Because we are all different and beautiful in our own right. ☺️
Bonnie Nash so why even state it in your comment if it didnt matter what his skin is you shoul have said that was a nice act of humanity or he a great guy. or however length the comment. because even stating any thing about his skin draw attention to his skin. nice comment not saying what you did is wrong just saying stating it in General actually is doing some what of the opposite of what your trying to do. but your a beautiful person have :)
You Guys... Please Were ARE All Part of The Human Race.... Only Difference is Shade....
Americans wallow in these "feel good" fluff pieces, that is just basic decency, in one breath and outright ignore inequality in the next. It truly is boggling to other Countries.
Funny thing is, these 'feel good' pieces are meant to be a relief from the relentless negative reinforcement that gets applied in media of all sorts. This particular story is an indirect plea for racial tolerance, an example of positive reinforcement. The targeted audience is not just people wallowing in self-congratulatory tolerance, but the profanely intolerant. Must be nice that you don't have that in your country.
This is truly heartwarming but the biggest tear jerker is that as his reward, John is giving back to his first sports club. Now that is the real act of kindness.
Above and beyond! Very commendable.
This is beautiful to see. Yes, it’s “just an act of kindness” and that’s what makes it so special. John, thank you for giving positive energy to us all during this challenging time in our world! 💜
@Ramon Ramirez
Oh yeahhh! It sure does. You sound a little jealous or something...? It’s just a nice thing to see. Little acts of positivity can sometimes rub off on us if we let em.
Him, slightly, rocking back and forth makes me wonder if he's a dad or big brother. Sweet and makes me wanna pay it forward.
Exactly I was thinking the same myself. Dude obviously has been around kids, that is evident
Beautiful 😍. So many more John's are needed in 2021.
IT goes to show THERE'S Hope for mankind 😔 IN this WORLD 🌍🌎🌍 PEACE ☮️ and Guidance 🙏 One LOVE 🌹🇬🇾
He is a sweetheart and the twins and their mother were so happy for his act of kindness.Thank you John. Keep up the good work.
He's a good looking guy!
God bless you John you're a man after God's own heart.
I love seeing people be people and no matter what color or race, they just be kind to each other 🙏🏾✨♥️👏🏾💪🏾👶👶
One human helping another human. We need more of this in OUR WORLD !!! How Wonderful !!!
Blessed Be to all
Simple acts of kindness are gold…we all need to practice this…doing good is good🙂
That wasnt. just a job to him. It was passion..Thank u brother. U just dont never knoe who need a hand.
A kind person goes a long way I love this 😀.
I love what the mom said. It starts with us.😍❤
John you are an inspiration. I was taught to be compassionate ,kind ,giving. if some people would just hold a door or give up their seat to a person who needs it. what a better world this would be.
just a smile and have a nice day can brighten someone's day. God bless you and keep being who you are. more people should be a John
Mom of twins here. God bless this guy. I've been in that situation and you feel helpless and worthless and as a mother when your babies both need to be held and you can't physically hold them both.
This is what every news show should feature daily!
If they did, the world would definitely be more positive and inspired.
Some people are truly special. Thank you for your kindness young man.
