There is a saying: “Do not see small good deeds and do not do them, do not see small evil deeds and do them”. Sometimes just a small good deed can be a great support and encouragement for those in need.
Recently there was a widely shared clip of a woman celebrating her birthday alone in a restaurant. She looked very lonely, by this time the restaurant staff and other customers there had stepped around to celebrate her birthday. This very small act moved her to tears!

Birthday is a day of great significance for everyone. We often celebrate this special day with relatives or friends, but not everyone is lucky enough to have someone else by their side.
The Twitter account Good News Movement shared a clip of a woman celebrating her birthday alone at a store. There was a birthday cake on her table, she prayed and started clapping and singing happy birthday to herself.
Not long after, a female employee and other diners in the store gathered to her, they clapped and sang to congratulate her, making the normally quiet scene suddenly become bustling.
The woman seemed very emotional and began to wipe the tears from her cheeks with her hand. At this point, the female employee and others hugged her and cheered her on.
