    Dying Girl Gets Last Christmas Wish as Small Town Flooded with Carolers

    This is apparently a few days old, but over 10,000 people flooded this girl's 4,000 person town to help answer her last wish for a big Christmas sing-a-long. Saw via other news reports this morning that she has passed away peacefully overnight. And now I am a blubbering mess. Such a beautiful gift for this girl and her family. It has reaffirmed my faith in humanity.

    Merry Christmas everyone!

    Another article here with some video. Video: Dying girl's wish granted by 10,000 Christmas carolers - Telegraph

    I really am not trying to be depressing, I just find this act of kindness of 10,000 strangers incredibly inspiring. I hope others feel the same way too.
