If you are a kind and big-hearted person, there is nothing more beautiful than saving an innocent life. It is a wonderful feeling… one that is difficult to put into words.
One fine day, as a father and son walked along a mountain road in Del Rio, Texas, they never imagined the opportunity to do that would present itself.
Suddenly, they heard loud cries coming from beneath a rock. Realizing what it was, they sprang into action without hesitation.
That day, they were destined to save a life.
Just A Baby
As soon as these two big-hearted people heard the cries, they approached the source of that heartbreaking sound. After they investigated it a bit, they realized that the poor animal was stuck under a rock.
They immediately started breaking the branches that were blocking the way to the rock and were eventually successful.
The boy noticed that the rock was very big and heavy, but he also saw two forelegs sticking out. The heartbreaking sight motivated these two good souls to do anything in their power to save the helpless being.
Luckily, they quickly realized that it was necessary to only move some smaller stones to reach the animal, which the father soon did. Peering through the cracks, they finally spotted a trapped goat.
The father gently grabbed the little one, worked him through the gap, and carefully lifted him to freedom. He was just a baby, crying out loud and still not realizing what was happening to him.
The father and son, as well as the mother who appeared later, were so happy when they saw that they had saved the life of such an innocent creature.
Back To His Buddy
The baby goat was still crying while the father was holding him in his arms and examining his body for potential wounds.
However, those heartbreaking sounds did not only come from the baby, but also from another goat. When they turned behind them, they saw a slightly larger goat, which was probably his worried friend.
At that moment, they knew exactly what to do, but before they let him go into the mountains of Del Rio, Texas, the boy took the baby goat in his arms and hugged him for the first and last time before saying goodbye.
Soon after, a woman appeared, probably the boy’s mother, who let the baby goat out of her arms, after which the goat quickly ran back to his buddy.
On that day, these good people had the privilege to experience what it means to save a life. We can only imagine what it feels like when we, who only see it on video, feel this good.
