I hope they update this story every year. These two are so sweet. I hope he's around to see her graduate college and walk down the aisle

Children are still so close to God...they have absolute PURE LOVE to share!

[@TimeWarp-pj4kz]

There's something special about her. I can't put my finger on it but she seems to understand this man needs her which not alot of kids her age would understand

[@Browny241422]

Well said ❤ One would wonder why any human beings would hurt little kids 💔 She and her mum ❤❤ Lucky old man ❤ Hope he lives longer

This story made me cry again. Dan passed away in February 2020. Nora sent him off with love to be with his wife.

It doesn't get any better than this! From the day I was born until the day she died my great-grandmother was my very best friend. I loved her more than life itself. Still do and I will be 75 next month.

[@xino_z]

Πάρης Τσ really amazing parents. The mom especially, she let her bother him in the store like that, I would have been upset she called him an old man but the Mom seems like an old soul herself.

[@CommanderTavos99]

I find it interesting how everyone here wants to interpret something magical in this when its just ... being nice. I know most people, especially women, don't know anymore about this concept, but that its.

Ive watched the original story at least 10 times and each time I cried 😭HAPPY tears...the update made my day. Those two have a very special bond. I love this!!

[@sweetonyxakararegem692]

Yes she does...she knows him already and loves him and doesn't want to let go.

[@QUEENOBSCURE]

I believe in Twin flames...they don't have an age rule. I think these are. Normally people think it as sexual bent it's not true. Some also say, there is always two of you, out there, your not whole untill death (or you may just form a full soul and come back to do a new life) His wife and Nora could also be two halves, they separated when they came here. They also have no age rule either.

[@tailynn-91]

This makes me miss my grandparents so bad. I can’t watch these two cuties without crying like a baby 😭😭😭😭😭

This has been my absolute favorite story from the day I saw it! I could watch it over and over again! 😊❤️

[@mjfisher1199]

For the last couple of years, I have used this video in a free write writing activity in my L.A. class. My goal is to present goodness in the world, with hopes that I can inspire my students to duplicate the big message- love your neighbor. Undoubtedly, tissues are passed out after we watch the video. As the mother in the video says "It's pure magic".

[@cathykeim1088]

[@jadoon171]

Any body who will watch will cry for sure!

[@mrfafaa96]

Growing old isn't easy. Your body is slowly giving up on you and your friends and loved ones die off one after another. An old person, like a child, just want to be loved while they still can. Norah was able to fill that hole left in Steve after his wife had passed away. Hope that they can have fun for many more years and that Steve can eventually pass away in peace.

[@RobertNielsen1970]

Actually, 'Steve' is the name of the guy who did the story (Steve Hartman). The man _in_ the story was named _Dan._ I say 'was,' because he died earlier this year (2020). But I'd be willing to bet that, many years from now when Norah dies, Dan, and Mary (Dan's wife) will be waiting for Norah in Heaven. And, it wouldn't surprise me if Norah hugged Dan the minute she saw him again.

[@lizb853]

@@RobertNielsen1970 I'd consider that MORE than likely,snd most probably Mary, Dan's wife would have received a bear hug too,as I'm sure that Dan would hsve told Norah many lovely stories about his wife. At the end of the day. Dan and Mary,were Norah's honorary grandparents. Both Norah AND Dan were such lovely souls and I'm SURE that Mary would've been one too.
