The whole spirit of Christmas is about being kind and kindness can be shown in innumerable ways. You need not be rich to have enough to share, but simply need the will to do good.
This has been very well exemplified by a man who works as a supply driver. At the beginning of the Holiday Season he decided to spread smiles by dressing up as Santa himself and deliver gifts to children.
There goes the lore that Santa visits all good kids during Christmas and gives them presents. Children wish hard for their favorite thing while being asleep on Christmas eve hoping to wake up to receive it from Santa. And who wouldn’t want to feel special with Santa’s gifts?
Yet what has caught everyone’s attention is a video that captured this very driver while he was delivering a gift to a differently-abled child. He drove his truck to the autistic boy’s house to give away the present.
Since being first shared on TikTok, the driver’s kind act has been going viral on almost all social media platforms.
Watch it below.
As you can see in the video, the boy jumps with joy on his lawn when he sees a truck heading towards his house. He points out at the vehicle, showing friends and family and letting them know about its arrival. Things got even more dramatic as the vehicle comes closer to the boy’s house, one can see that it has “Santa’s Helpers” written on it.
Though it is the truck of the shipping company UPS.
The kid is not able to contain his happiness when he sees that Santa Claus has arrived himself, and is filled with joy and excitement on seeing the driver dressed as Santa.
“UPS sent Santa to deliver gifts to his biggest fan, a boy with autism”, reads the caption.
There have been thousands of viewers of the clip. Internet users are filled with praise and kind words for the gesture.
“Well done UPS – you rock!!! Bless you all and have a wonderful holiday,” wrote an Instagram user.
“This is beautiful! Oh the joy this moment brought to this young man. Thank you for sharing,” wrote another.
“I’m crying my frickin’ eyes out over here!!! If we look with our heart, we see magic everywhere! What a beautiful act and what a beautiful boy!” wrote a third.
