Every year, the graduating 8th grade class votes for superlatives. The teachers add up the votes. When 'Jordan A' was announced for Most Inspirational, teachers were in tears to see our entire class who never get along, give a standing ovation. He died in a fire in fourth grade and we still consider him part of our class.

            	<A class="fmllink" href="http://www.givesmehope.com/view/Amazing friends/2076">I suffer from severe depression. I try to keep that part of me away from friends because I'm worried they'll judge me for it. After revealing this to a dear friend via email, he went silent. I went to bed feeling worse than ever. Early the next morning, there was a knock at the door. He had driven all night to see me, just to give me a hug. GMH.</A>

            	<A class="fmllink" href="http://www.givesmehope.com/view/Random acts of kindness/6913">One of my classmates in high school had leukemia, and he was really depressed after his first round of chemo when he came to school with no hair.  When they found out about it, all 70+ members of the varsity football team shaved their heads too. Their yearbook picture is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. GMH</A>

            	<A class="fmllink" href="http://www.givesmehope.com/view/Random acts of kindness/9785">My family & I got seperated in New York City when I was little. Scared, I sat crying on the sidewalk as tons of people passed by. A homeless man picked me up, comforted me, & carried me to a police officer, who found my parents.  He had a long beard & I asked if he was Jesus. He laughed so hard he cried. He GMH.</A>
