That's really touching, and eye opening. What an incredible selfless act.

There's a mediation practice I sometimes do called Metta, which involves wishing well to others in your life. It's incredibly calming to even imagine helping others. My first thought was that Jon must be a very happy person.

When I heard that he did this it totally blew my mind. You hope there are people like him out there but don’t see them very often. Separately, I’ve tried Metta! I haven’t been able to get over my own self-consciousness when I do it though.

Love this story. Your friend is a role model, nay, a saint.
