This man comes into my job almost every day with a free frosty coupon. He’s homeless, and he’s also of the nicest homeless people that come here. He just made me want to hug him when I saw him mixing ice in what was left of his frosty, just to have a bit more. Smh, I’m giving him another free one. This is saddening me, seriously. I went up to him and offered him one, he smiled and said “naahh” I said you sure? Is there anything I can help you with? He laughed and shook his head in a polite way. One of the most humble people to come through here… Every other one is usually rude, and angry. But this man still keeps his joy. This tells me I should never have a reason to frown, if he can still manage to smile.

This is Matthais Steiner. He’s a German Olympic weightlifter in the highest weight category. He once made a promise to his wife, a promise that one day he would win a gold medal in the Olympics and be the strongest man in the world. He trained for years for this, and just a month before he would go on to compete, his wife tragically died in a car accident. In order to break the record, he’d need to lift 20 kilograms more than he’d ever lifted. This is the video of his attempt at the gold medal.
