Teen annoys older guy with the same name on Twitter, wholesome turn of events has them becoming pen pals: '[He] found our wedding registry and gave us $10!'

In a world full of tragedies and disappointments, we tend to grab on to anything that gives us the tiniest spark of happiness. Sometimes we have to search really hard for it, but other times it is presented to us. Just a simple act of kindness can really change someone's entire day. So if you are presented a spark of happiness, hold on tight to it and maybe even try to spread it around.

Take, for example, this person with a unique name. We don't know the name, we just know that it is not common in the slightest. This guy is older and he was able to get his own name as his social media handle. One day, surprisingly, he got a message from a much younger guy with his same unique name. The guy was begging him to give up his Twitter handle so he could have it. The old guy ignored it, but the kid kept messaging asking. Eventually, he changed his tune, however. Instead of asking for the older guy to give up his Twitter handle, he just started sending him life updates. The younger kid was sharing that he graduated high school, saying happy new year, and things like that…

The older guy of the same name, started slightly interacting. He liked a few photos here and there, send happy new year back, etc. They started to become wholesome pen pals. Guys with the same name have to stick together, after all! The kid even found that the older guy was about to get married and sent them $10 to their registry saying "for his pen pal."

They're still in wholesome correspondence and we are here for it! Gotta love an unlikely friendship.
