There are countless videos shared online every day, but only a few manage to truly touch hearts. Among them, one clip stood out this week, a simple, wholesome moment that spreads joy for all the right reasons. It shows two waste pickers going about their routine work, but what happened next left viewers smiling.
The short video depicts an act so small but so full of happiness that it reminds everyone how much happiness can be found in the simplest things. Without fancy cars or luxury, it’s the story of a man who found pure joy in a neglected game.
A healthy moment for the waste collector on duty
The video begins with two waste pickers arriving to pick up the trash. While loading trash into the truck, someone noticed an old toy car lying among the trash. Although dusty and worn, it still looks functional. The man pulls it out, dusts it off, and puts it on the ground.
The man puts on his military uniform and hat, then sits on the toy car and takes it for a short ride near the truck. He is so excited driving the little car before returning it. He even gives a cheery thumbs up to his colleague, who watches with a wide smile. This moment, filled with laughter and childlike excitement, perfectly captures the joy of finding happiness in the little things.
