During a pregame warm-up, Jordin Tootoo, currently playing for the Red Wings’ AHL team, the Grand Rapids Griffins, noticed a kid extending his hand for a high-five and calling out his name, “Tootoo!”
Tootoo responded in the best way possible. He said, “What’s up buddy?” and handed him his stick.
“That’s all yours.”
The kid showed the best face ever.
Jordin has shown all of us it just takes a few seconds to change someone else’s life for good. Let’s all do something today for the better.
Sierra says
That is amazing. Making a kid that happy must feel awesome.
If we all followed this example there would be no more depression and a lot more inspiration.

Thank you Sierra! This is an amazing example of little things add up to make a huge difference, Jordin made this kid so happy just by giving him his hockey stick. You are right, there is lots of inspiration in the world and we just have to make a bit more progress.
