The world is such huge, amazing place. From country to country, the diversity among human beings seems endless. But there's a darker side to that, and some people aren't the kindest when compared to others. People may try to prey on those that they deem "weak," or at some kind of disadvantage, often people with some form of disability or disorder. It's extremely disappointing to think that some see this behavior as acceptable, but there are always others in the world that fight to protect those who are mistreated.
Some may even go out of their way to commit acts of pure kindness, seeking no reward except the satisfaction of making another person's day. That's exactly what Michael Jordan did for one of his biggest fans.
Recently, a video has gone absolutely viral after it showed a man, named Jeffrey Harrison, dressed from head to toe in Michael Jordan gear. Not only was he wearing Jordan's Bulls uniform, but he made sure to get the details down by adding in the wristband and everything. Jeffrey was considered to be one of MJ's biggest fans, but one thing made him susceptible to bullying from others, and that's the fact that he is autistic. While no one should be bullied in any scenario,Jeffrey chose to rise above. None of it stopped Jeffrey from showing up to the courts and playing ball.
When Jordan heard about Jeffrey, he decided to send him a thank you letter and a ton of Jordan swag so he can cycle through the outfits all week. As if that wasn't enough, the legend even gave him a call to make sure he received everything. This story is a perfect example of how even the smallest of things can go a long way in making someone truly happy. What can you do to make a difference today?
