The replies! So lovely!
Tell me, friends, a favorite memory of a human doing something deeply kind/selfless for another human.

To increase signal-to-noise ratio, if you can't remember an example, rather than reply to say "I have no answer" please read/enjoy the replies; perhaps you'll have an answer to the next #ShellQ.
