GEORGIA Every once in a while, a video goes viral that reminds you just how much good there is in the world.

This video comes from Milledgeville, Georgia, and I promise it will bring a smile to your face or add a bit of extra joy to your day. It may even inspire you to be a little kinder to those you come across.

The video shows 8-year-old Maurice Adams Jr., who noticed an elderly woman struggling to make it up some stairs one day, so he didn't hesitate to go help her. It's a sweet moment, and after the two make it up the stairs together, the woman gives Maurice a hug, and he hops back down the stairs and into his mom's car.

According to CBS, Maurice and his mom didn't know the random act of kindness was being filmed, but a stranger recorded it and uploaded it to Facebook. The person who recorded the video was then able to find Maurice's mom and plans to meet up with the family to reward the boy for his kind act.

The video is short, but it's a great reminder that selfless acts take place all around us each day. Maurice didn't have to help this woman, but the fact that he did meant that for at least a few minutes, he was this woman's hero. Enjoy the video, and let it inspire you to pay it forward and act with a little more kindness and love toward the people you see this week.
