i hope that one day you feel as happy as you make other people
i hope that you experience laughing to the point of your sides aching
i hope that you will get the chance to completely and utterly enjoy yourself doing something you love or being with people you love or just having fun
i hope that you’ll start to see yourself as someone worthy of those things
98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.
though a well known fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living instead off his monthly state pension of 80 euros.
there’s still good in this world
