Can a single moment of truth or act of kindness or bravery change the lives and attitude of people for ever?
Apparently it does very little to rouse the unknown positive or sometimes even otherwise character traits of a simple, ordinary person.
Mice in Men by Anirban Bose, author from Ranchi (err my town), writes 10 tales of such men and women who rediscover their surprising character traits.

10 such tales with unexpected twists in the end.
