Social media is not always the bad negative place that we know it as. Sometimes, it can also be the knight in shining armour for someone in distress.
This story about a man who lost his necklace at an airprot will regain your trust in social media. Nikesh Shukla, who is an author, recently lost his necklace, which contained some of his mother’s ashes at the Heathrow airport. In the hope of getting back his necklace, Nikesh took to Twitter to ask for help in finding it.
He tweeted saying, “Hi. I lost the necklace shown in my profile pic today at Heathrow airport terminal 2. It contains some of my mum’s ashes and is extremely dear to me. Any chance of a RT in the slim hope it’s found?”

Hannah Sheppard@YA_BooksReplying to @nikeshshuklaI feel your pain. About 5 years after my dad died, a charm he’d given me fell off my necklace while I was out and about – I’d worn it every day since he died. Devastating. Hope yours comes back to you.

Joelle Mae@xJoelleMaeContact the airline you flew out on! Agents usually go above and beyond. My mom (an agent) has looked for similar things at her airport and even mailed them to the owner when she found them.

DeborahFrances-White@DeborahFWReplying to @nikeshshuklaThis is very sad but maybe someone will return it! If not, it’s a beautiful object but its meaning will always be with you. You can never lose it and no one can ever hand it in. Xx

The best part, after close to 10,000 retweets, the internet managed to save the day by getting Heathrow airport to respond to his tweet and finding the necklace for him. Their response is winning the internet.
