- Walking the streets of Preston in search of a place to sleep, Robert noticed a sad girl who seemed to need help. Daring to speak to her, the homeless man learned that her name was Dominique, and that she was having a bad night.

He was not only homeless he was a great gentleman and a kind one at that bless his heart. 💕
Two winners... bless them both and all those who donated to them.
I wish more people would think like that and help each other, the world would be a much better place to live on.💕
agreed that it would be
Agreed
You make the world a better place to start with yourself.
@@lidy7480 Exactly, as Michael Jackson sang, I'm starting with the man in the mirror.
problem is not every one wants help they want to take what another has. so no, i hope people dont always help others pray for each other instead.
Well Done Dominique , We need more people in the world like you. Robbie was equally as nice to help Dominique in the first place
Was anyone else teary eyed while watching this video? The beauty of the spirit that shines from someone soul when its touch by the unconditional love and desire to be there for one another the way it should be!
No
Can only think of one word 4 this man(humble)
What a beautiful story....Its about always doing the right thing for someone in need of help....❤🧡💛😇
This is actually part fact, part fiction. She never gave the money to Robbie, she gave it to a homeless charity. She actually ended up raising quite a bit more too. A shame that some of it is made up as the real story is just as good.
Some people hv beautiful hearts. No one should hv to live on the streets. Its so sad. Thankyou so muvh for yr helping hand.
"Love one another as I have loved you" - such a simple message acted on by two good people aided by the so many others who contributed imagine if the world was full of such people Would it be -- Heaven ?
Awesome! You never know how a small act of kindness will change a persons life.
This is so beautiful! I wish more people were like this. God 🙏 bless them both
It's bring me so much hope and joy to see their still good people out in this cruel world 😀😀😀😀× infinity
There are still some good men out there to bad they didn't get together as a couple. That was so sweet of him God bless him and all the homeless people. And bless her for helping him.

Most of we men are "good men" the world over. It's the few jerks that get all of the publicity. Saying that there are "still some good men out there" is extremely condescending and basically a very biased statement. I know you mean well but you have to choose your words a little more carefully.
If you were a man and you said that there are still some good women out there, I would say the same thing as I’m saying to you now: you are part of what’s wrong with this world. Assuming something about someone because of their gender, race, nationality, religion or sexuality is wrong.
Amazing story. Two good people meeting with one worse off than the other and yet he had the biggest heart of all. In the end, it was the young lady with an even bigger heart. ❤ All the best to them both.
That's so nice of her and he saved her life from getting hurt on the at this was a nice story that happened and helped each other theres good people out there wish there was more it was so good they ran into each other
Such a good heart-warming story. It’s always good to do the right thing, expecting nothing in return. And the thousands of people who were touched and also did the right thing. Makes me cry. Thank you
That is a heart warming story!! The world needs a hole lot more people like yourselves, God bless hope the best for you two.
They say a good deed to someone they never forget
A fantastic outcome. Well done. There should be more people like this in this world.
As a homeless person myself, it's hard to avoid being broken by it, most of us aren't fortunate enough to have will strong enough to keep it from beating us down into a rut that we can't get out of. This man I'm positive with remember the blessings she brought on him for the rest of his life, and will pass on those blessings to others that are in the same place. And I am just one case that can verify that it honestly does happen. Even if not often enough it seems, miracles do happen, though most often from the tiniest seemingly inconsequential gestures of genuine kindness from those that have nothing but still give because in the heart we're the richest^~^
May I ask what your story is ? Hope you are well now 😃
@@jackvanderlinden1015 "Life is hard, don't fall into your own darkness from unfortunate circumstances" at least that's what I got from it.
I been homeless for 21 years but you make your own home kind of where ever you are .
Wait if u are homeless how did you aquire a mobile device to post this comment. Unless u mean u were homeless because thats another story lol
@@AhsokaTano101 libraries.
Angels are not in heaven but live among us, every country needs at least one Domanic!
It is no nice to know that the world is still filled with beautiful people. 😊❤🇨🇦
There are still some honest people out there in the World around us sometimes, that is fantastic story, I was impressed by the story, thank you.
Thank you for sharing another heart-warming story! 💖💖💖 I can’t tell you enough how your videos lift my spirits during these dark times as it feels like my country is being torn apart. 🇺🇸
Homeless people are often very nice people I was once homeless too GOD bless all people living on the streets
I have no issue with helping someone who is hungry. I will purchase them a meal, coffee, etc. Thing is I live in a metropolitan area where people will portray themselves as down and out, when actually they are scammers. Some have been followed and they live in expensive homes and have luxury cars in their garages. God Bless this young woman for helping a young man obviously in need.
I have given money to people who say they need it for a bus fare only to see them walk away from the bus stop. It's usually about drugs.
This is sadly a very true fact...it absolutely ruins chances for honestly homeless people to have options in which they can better themselves.., but still this vid shows there are hope for a miracle still
I've witnessed this first-hand, and had a 30 min conversation w/the "homeless" person. She stayed below poverty level for her day job, then went out to panhandle afterwards. She also knew how to hustle the donation cup. This gave her free health services and paying less on her income tax, while providing a very cushy living situation.
Ah this is where the repubs gather with their make believe stories and vague untracebable statements about others . Welcome ya'll. I hope you learn a thing or two about being a decent human while you are here. :)
@@Rh0dan1970 Go live in NYC or London (I split my time). Homeless people who need help, usually with mental health issues are everywhere. There are also plenty of con artists. Keep your politics and lecturing out of the conversation please
Thank to both of these people for saving each other 👍👍. The people who have the least in their lives are the first to help others.
This video was such a heartwarming story an amazing. And yes you should never turn your back on someone that needs help you never know when you’ll need it in return. He was nice enough to give him her the last 3 pounds of the money he had to get a taxi for her. And expecting nothing in return you need to be kind hearted to other people and if you can help help them. I know that’s what it is with me if I know that a homeless person needs my help I may not help a lot I don’t have much but I give them something to eat and then tell them God Bless you and be safe ok 🙏❤️
Beautiful story, touched my heart. Also thank you for producing content that shows the warmth, generosity and kindness of humanity, it is very much appreciated!
Homeless people are the most humble and friendly people you can ever find in life..
Go Robbie this is what the world needs nice people like Robbie and never judge a book by it’s cover.
I think that is awesome! I have been homeless before so I know what it’s like. Robbie found a guardian angel! We all have them, and they show up when you most desperately need them especially, when you yourself are a guardian angel and you don’t even know it yet! A good lesson learned❤️👩🏻
The good you do to others will always come back to you in triple times!!
be thankfull there are people like Dominique to make this a happy outcome for both people - wonderful - pay it forward
That was a wonderful story. Both of them were wonderful people. God never forgets, what people have done in their lives. God bless them
Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic heartwarming story! It made me very happy. We will all strive for getting a better loving world.
I live in Canada and because of mental health issues I very nearly wound up homeless after being evicted from my long time rental. It was through the kindness of strangers and friends that I was able to become re-established in my own home and return to work. The good deed you do today can have an ripple effect that can become a miracle. I loved this story.
As a point of interest for any Brits on this channel an employer cannot give an employee a bad reference it is illegal. See citizens advice if you experience this problem.
They can answer the question of would you hire this person again however. And a no answer might as well be the same as a bad reference. So it is still a bad idea to burn bridges if possible.
You can easily give a bad reference without actually giving a bad reference. And it doesn't seem likely that a boss who accuses someone falsely of fraud would care that much for law anyway.
THEY CAN SAY ; WHETHER YOU ARE PUNCTUAL OR NOT , AND IF YOU TAKE MUCH TIME OFF . IF THEY LIE YOU EFFING SHAFTED .
If I wanted to give an awful ex-employee a bad reference and let the next employer know what they were potentially letting themselves in for I'd just offer a phone reference instead of a written one, you can say what you like then.
This is not true all it states is
"The reference has to be accurate. Your employer can’t say anything that’s not true.
They also have to be fair when they decide what to put in the reference. For example, they can’t say you were investigated for stealing if the investigation decided you hadn’t done it."
and it is on the person giving the refrence to prove the truth. You cant simple state "he was always late" as there may be unknown reasons that would not affect them in their new role. But if they have been given a written warning for abusive language in the office for example, then you can put "he has some times stuggled to control his language around the office".
You can give a bad refrence but unless you word it very carfully you can leave your self open to getting sued and can be very hard to defend and costly to your career. So generaly not a good idea.
I do believe that if people would be more like this girl and Robbie that this world would be better
Omg this is wonderful God bless
This is amazing i wish I can meet both of them
Good on ya Mate, and that young lady, she's one of the good ones. Wish there where more people like that in the world.
This is just so wonderful to see how far kindness can go even if you are not looking for something in return! amazing!
There’s a lot of bad in the world and yet there’s just as much Good ppl who do their best to weed out or help combat the bad by doing selfless acts and kindness to others. Amazing story. Love to here this
Makes me feel happy watching that humanity still exists 😍😍😍
God Bless both of these amazing angels!
God bless them both! And all the people who helped.💯🙏🥳😻
That was very thoughtful of her to help him.
What a nice story to sit and listen before bed.
great story; back when I was a raging alcoholic I got the reputation of being a soft touch(someone who will fall for a good sob story) amongst the hobos that came into the bar. One night a guy came in and talked for a couple of hours and by the end I gave him 20$ and he left. About 4 yr. later I was there( I was like Norm from the show Cheers) and a guy came in wearing a three-piece suit looking very sharp well-groomed. He came up and sat down and said "You don't remember me do you" I said no I don't he told me that 4 yr's ago I gave him 20$ and it got him home and my advice had gotten him to back to school. He said he had passed the bar and was now a lawyer. At the time when I gave him the money he asked how he was going to pay me back, I told him to pay it forward, he had but came back just to let me know. yes this is a true story, it was about 1982 so a long time ago.
Wow so beautiful love from Ireland well well done
It's one in a million. I sheltered 12 homeless persons. They robbed me and vanished but one. Now he doesn't look at me. My house is almost empty. I lost my job and my car, I eat three times a week because I struggle to pay my little house. I don't have the right to social help because I'm not homeless. My sons don't come to visit me any more. My family think I'm a looser. The only help I receive comes from my parents, moral help.
Being generous don't come back to you.
Phil, Belgium
no, its not one in a million, it's one in two. Life needs due diligence, and over time I figured out there's all kinds of people I shouldn't be "helping", like gypsy mafia or addicts. It's not that I judge them, it's that there are other, specific ways they can get help if they want, but usually they don't want. If you get them some food 5 minutes later it tends to be on the pavement. If you offer a couch you might be accused of the worst ulterior motives. Let people with 2 houses and millions in the bank offer high value things to the volatile groups
what a lovely story of kindness form two people who help each other in diff ways my father all ways told me it is long road with out a turn and he was so right god bless them both
Great story, great guy and great girl and great people. Just to remind everyone on earth, this story must be a while ago. You can't even get on a taxi with £3 now.
Very true and a little suspect considering Robbie is getting her a taxi to the nearby town of Lancashire, there's no such town village or city its a county
Love from New Zealand God bless
🙏🏻🇳🇿❤🇳🇿
I enjoy these stories very much. Folks helping folks makes this World go round.
I have done “Homeless” for 10 of the past 15 years. I haven’t been out on the street because people have stepped up and kept me busy, paid, fed, clean and sleeping comfortably.
I call myself the homeless homebuilder because I put my heart into my work making beautiful living spaces.
Seems there’s always need and needy souls.
We’re all better off when co-existing and doing our best to be helpful, trustworthy and respectful.
Thanks for sharing uplifting messages that do make a big difference to so many lives. Namaste.
What a great story and a great show of human kindness and care,
We could use a lot more of this in the world kudos to that young girl and the homeless man
Living literally just down the road from Preston, I'm not surprised by this generosity. Never heard of this story on the news though, maybe I just missed it.
cuz its just a story. 3 pounds for a taxi ride to the next town over?
Robbie lives within all our hearts, Robbie!...
Robbie!!
That has restored my faith in humanity just a bit.
Truly heartwarming story! Thank you for sharing.
Be kind, not for reward but because one kindness can make the world better.
I have never had a bad experience helping someone on the street. Some of the nicest friends I have ever met.
Awesome story of compassion and gratitude between two people. It is something that lacks in society today due to social media and all hatred that out there.
Beautiful. Thanks
This is a beautiful story 👏🏾👏🏾
Fantastic act off kindness on both parts the lady is a legend with the work she put in to help this guy 1act of kindness can go along way it's a shame the government's around the world don't step in and help the homeless instead of leaving it to charities and the hard work they put in I was once homeless myself and repaid the peaple that helped me hope this video is an inspection to other's
Both of them are beautiful souls...
Sad but wonderful inspirational story.
Beautiful story, thank you & God bless you.
God moves in mysterious ways.. we all need to help each other.
I new some people would try to claim this for their god.
@@TukikoTroy Relax Tukiko, one must certainly have alot of faith to believe there is no God. Does your faith in nothing trump another's faith in something? You know what ppl. say:Haters gonna hate! Have a wonderful day!
@@johncampbell829 Did I say that I believe there is no god? Did I say that I have faith in nothing? Did I say that I hate anything? You need to stop making assumptions. Read what I actually said.
we should not judge anybody , even homeless people. the best thing to do is knowing them, coz im sure some of them are nice people or decent people who just lost opportunity in life and not a bad one. spread love, coz in a way we need each other. anyway, this is a good story. i learned a lot from it. thank you Life Stories for this nice video.
This is an amazing story, thank you for sharing it
Unlike that story recently with the guy giving money to a woman, that ended up working together with him and her husband...this story is real. :D
Maybe.
Initial charge (0.5 miles)
£3.00
£3.40
£4.20

One mile £3.80 £4.20 £5.00 £6.20 £6.20
Every additional mile

£1.60
£2.80
£2.80 Those are the taxi charges in the UK... So unless she had extra money the taxi would not have traveled more than 1000M .... BULLSHIT STORY!!! Friday 8pm it's 4.80 until Monday 6am! YEAH IT MUST BE TRUE SHE MUST HAVE HAD A TAXI THAT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT WHAT HE MUST PAY HIS EMPLOYER!! who will work for a loss you do understand how taxi's work yes?
@@snylys She didn't even accept his money. But the story is true.

Humanity personified! The sacrifice of Robbie and the relentless gratitude of Dominique compliment each other to teach all what it means to be human. God bless you both for inspiring every individual on the planet.
what a beautiful story 2 beautiful human beings this is what we need in this world. 🙏❤
Wonderful, the milk of human kindness can flow from anyone, if they see a need, so great!
two beautiful people
The power of the "widow's might" resonates with this act of kindness and generousity. Love begets love.
widow's mite
What about the past employer who unfairly sack him
Forgive and Forget
There are many selfless people living on the streets all around the world. They just need a hand up, not a hand out. If you want to help the homeless, start by talking with them, not down to them and listen. Don’t judge, just listen. You may be surprised when you hear how they became homeless. No one choose’s to be homeless, but they do choose how they’re going to deal with being homeless.
My husband and I were homeless for 7 months, if not for the kindness and love of family, we would have had to sleep in our van. We would have had to give up our aquatic turtle, Murtle. We also had a beautiful kitty, Samson, who survived an apartment building fire. We lost 2 cat’s, a small aquatic turtle and all of our belongings. It was a miracle that we survived the fire! Thank God, the owner’s of our apartment building gave us the opportunity to show them that we were good tenants and that we had been unjustly evicted from our previous apartment. The fire was in November of 2009. We were evicted from our apartment in May of 2011. We’ve been in our present apartment, since November of 2011. When our 2 kitties pass away, my husband wants to give our aquatic turtle, Murtle to neighbors so we can live and travel in our van. I’m not sure about living in our van, but I love the idea of traveling around the country. We could visit our family who live in different states around the country. This may happen within the next 2 years.
this is why you should always judge people by their character not by what someone says about them
A person who's capable of getting and had a good job and is now homeless has made some bad decisions. btw a boss can't give you a bad reference in the UK.
Amazing .
Great story thanks for sharing
Thank you and thank God for the good in men’s hearts…
That moment, when I am waiting for the narrator to say that Robert and Dominique fell in love and live happily ever after.lol
There is a age difference
ME TOO
I'm actually glad in a way that wasn't the ending. I think we need to be able to have relationships that show we respect each other as individuals without there being a "romantic" outcome.
@@rexlapis1075 Age ain't nothing but a number if the romance is there .... but I see your point.
@@k.c1126 well this story reminds me of a certain comic ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Amazing..I hope everyone in this world will have the same attitude...Thank you for your amazing story and God bless...
Thank You ❤️
These Stories are a Step in the RIGHT DIRECTION
Reminds me on an incident where a young lady was scared to get off the train at night during the Yorkshire ripper's killing spree and we gave her our last five pounds to catch a cab....but this represented no sacrifice on our part we just empathized with her plight. Any half decent person would have done the same.
Stories stories like this to help encourage people to not to give up never the back down never let nobody take who you are from you regardless of your situation being a blessing is a blessing and many times of the day
Great Story!!! 💖💖💖
Having been homeless on the streets all over Southern Connecticut in my youth. I know how far a caring stranger's help can take a person down and out. I've run into dozens of homeless people who have been dealt pretty shitty blows. Most of them are kind hearted, generous people. I hope more people can find help like this.
A person should never loose his humanity, come what may.
Homeless people are lost souls and need are help. Every homeless man deserves a shelter over their heads.
What a wonderful story. Life is tough. No one knows what it is like when you you fall on tough times unless you they walk in their shoes.
God bless people like Robert !!
such a heart warming story that will warm up your soul
Made this 68 yr old mans eyes LEAK! - Still good folks around, many factors try to divide us, keep us "mad" and "angry" sad isn't it, life can be really simple when we just remember, treat others how you would like to be treated.
TY Life Stories, like a breath of fresh air in LA, cool water in death valley... love your channel, always makes me smile!
Amazing story
I have lived on the street for a short time in my life, i am such a food hoarder these days, but it does take acts of kindness to help you get back into society, more people should be like these 2
