Patrick Stewart is just a super awesome human being. He proves it time and again. He never stops. Check out this photo of the man behind Jean-Luc Picard and Professor XÂ hugging a young fan at Dragon Con. Cool right? Wait until you hear the whole story.
The moment was captured by photographer James Barker, who posted the photo on his Facebook page with the following explanation:
This is my favorite Dragoncon 2014 photo. The Make-a-Wish foundation made it possible for 10 year old Dawn, who has a life threatening illness, to meet Patrick Stewart backstage. He was about to speak to a packed room of 2000 people, but they sat down and he really focused on her; they talked for about 15 minutes. As things are winding down and she and her family are getting ready to go, Dawn unexpectedly throws him this huge hug, and you can see the happiness in both their faces. Bravo Sir Patrick! #classact #patrickstewart #dragoncon
Honestly people, this is the best thing you will see all day. We should all try to live our lives a little more like this man does.
