Kindness is a gift not everyone is blessed with . Some are capable of demonstrating empathy and generosity in grand gestures, while others do so in the simplest of ways , touching people’s heartstrings.

Pamela Altamirano Sánchez never imagined that a simple scene would move millions of people. The young woman saw a “super-amazing” gesture on the streets of Ecuador:
An old man went to a pool of water to collect a little of the precious liquid in his hands and give it to a stray dog to drink .

It is not known exactly what the bond is between the good man and the dog, but his gesture of solidarity and love was seen by many , and several thousand people could not remain indifferent to his cordiality, issuing positive and touching comments.

Many people harbor a deep suspicion toward stray animals, rejecting both dogs and cats, without even imagining that these animals possess a very special and instinctive way of showing loyalty and gratitude to people who are able to make them experience a little love and consideration.

Thousands of blessings have fallen upon Grandpa , and many of the people fortunate enough to come across Pamela’s video admit to crying upon seeing these eloquent images.

Some say, “It’s so nice to see kind-hearted people, especially with animals.” Others say, “Look at the smile on Grandpa’s face as he gives the dog a drink .” It’s true. The kind man can’t erase that sweet expression from his face, a gesture that has spread around the world.

If you were moved by this video, don’t hesitate to share it on social media with your friends and family. They’ll thank you for it.
