#6: Saving Lives
It could be pretty hard to live in a spot that’s popular for suicides. I think a lot of us might feel helpless in a situation like that; we would likely want to leave these situations to be dealt with by people with more training.

But this guy knows that sometimes, you just can’t wait; sometimes people need help right now, before they make an irreversible decision. It’s amazing to think how many people he has helped by just being friendly: by striking up a conversation and inviting them in for tea. Think how much good we all could do if we reached out to other people like that! Your friendly conversation could be what another person needs to pull them back from the brink.
