“Couple days ago my kid was having a level 10, defcon 1, couldn’t-control-his-body meltdown at a restaurant. It happens. Poor guy was hungry as hell and overwhelmed. I was holding four bags and my 2 yr old. It was chaos,” Olivia tweeted.

Olivia went on to share that two strangers then came over to help her out.

“The place was packed and we were very much on display. I was in way over my head. I stayed calm but I was kind of crumbling inside. In the midst of the madness, 2 strangers, a young man and woman, approached and asked if they could help,” Olivia continued.

Olivia added: “I swallowed my pride and said yes, please, and they walked with us, placed my stuff into my trunk, and even put my daughter in her car seat, while I tried to soothe my son. I thanked them and they said, ‘hey no problem. We all have days like this.’”

Olivia then went on say how “moved” she was by this “simple act of kindness.”

“I’m so moved by this simple act of kindness. Their generosity profoundly effected my (and my kids’) reality that day. I can’t wait to do this for someone else. Humans are good. We can’t forget that. ❤️” Olivia concluded.

Over the weekend, Olivia Wilde filmed her upcoming movie The Ballad of Richard Jewell with Jon Hamm.
