I think this story here really captures the “American spirit.” This is who we are – giving, happy, and joyful, not this hateful, awful, terrible country that the media and Democrats like to portray.
So, when I saw this story, I knew I had to share it with you – I hope that it touches you the same way it touched me.
Here’s what happened:
A young self-taught musician walks into an antique store and sits down at a piano and plays Journey’s “Don’t Stop Belivin'” and his life changed forever…
He became a viral sensation.
The owner of the store, who didn’t get the young guys’ name at the time, was on a quest to find the “piano man” who dazzled his employees and customers.
He went on local TV to talk about the young kid, and finally, John Thomas Archer, the 23-year-old “piano man” who tickled the ivories, saw the story and contacted the store.
And that’s when the real magic happened…

An antique store in Massachusetts has given a mystery man a piano after he dazzled with an impromptu performance of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin.'”
On Saturday, 23-year-old John Thomas Archer asked employees at ReMARKable Cleanouts in Norwood permission to play a piano that was out on display.
One worker showed the store’s owner, Mark Waters, a recorded video of Archer as he wowed a small audience.
“I saw the clip and said, ‘Wow, that’s fantastic,'” Waters told “Good Morning America.” “He just lit up and drew a crowd.”
Waters, who opened ReMARKable Cleanouts a decade ago, said he was able to track down Archer and offer him a Steinway model piano simply to make his day.
“He went into tears and it brought tears to my eyes,” Waters said. “It was one of those feel good moments.”
“I just wish there was more stories like this with everyone opening their hearts,” he added. “I’d like to donate something every day if it brought people into a good mood.”

While the Dems and the media want to paint America like this awful place filled with hate and racism and intolerance, I will believe in this America here – a place filled with love, and hope, and a surprise around every corner.
We’re not perfect – no country is – but there’s a reason why people risk life and limb and come to here…America is magical.
Don’t stop belivin’.
