A traveller who discovered an “adorable” note tucked into the pocket of her aeroplane seat confessed she “can’t stop smiling” after sharing it online. Taking to Reddit, she uploaded a photograph of the heartwarming handwritten message from a “kid who wants to make the world a nicer place”.

The note began: “Hello, I don’t know who you are but I sat in this seat before you. I hope you have a good day and a good flight.

“However, if you are vomiting in this bag I feel for bad for you. I’m writing this message because I am a kid with a goal to make the world a nicer place”.

The youngster’s sweet message went on to ask that the “act of kindness” be passed along to establish a “chain” of goodwill. “So please, do an act of kindness today out of the good of your heart and tell the person to pay it forward,” it read. “This way we can start a chain of good in this world. Have a good day.”

The notion clearly resonated with countless other Reddit users, one of whom declared: “This is absolutely adorable, that kid has an amazing goal! It’s one of my goals too.”

A second exclaimed: “What a great kid! That is the most wholesome note. Hats off to the parents. The world needs more of this.”

A third individual agreed, writing: “Very sweet. Even the kids feel that the world is rotten.

“Let’s all regardless of our origin heal the world. Let’s all be nice and kind, and it won’t hurt or take anything away from any of us.”

While a fourth person gushed: “That’s lovely and also good to see when we live in a world where there is so much selfishness and evil.”

The note inspired others to follow suit, including on Reddit, where users shared photographs of their own similar acts of kindness.

“Hopefully this helps someone in a bad spot at 30K feet,” they penned. “I was inspired by the internet (thanks Reddit) and wrote a letter on a Barf Bag. Hopefully someone eventually sees this and it makes someone’s day.”

They subsequently added: “It felt really good to put positive vibes out there. Hopefully someone sees it and it brightens whatever mood they are in.”

The note contained words of wisdom for those enduring difficult times, urging readers to “hang in there”. It went on to say: “This sucks but will be over soon. Everyone will be able to relate to the misery you are going through. You can do it.”
