‘Viral’ is not a very flattering adjective. In internet-speak, it covers everything from gratuitous celebrity shots to videos of heinous accidents to cats doing cat-like things. An eye-roll

seems like the most appropriate response to most things the internet decides to be momentarily fascinated by. Sometimes, however, the digital waves wash over a story of wondrous human warmth

to the shore. A stranger’s Facebook post about Ms Anita Singh’s kindness and sensitivity while dealing with an intellectually disabled kid on her flight is one such story.
