Tweets of the Day: Renzo Gracie: 'The world is in great hands'

The randomness of social media is fascinating. When I usually write these 'Tweet of the Day' posts from various members of the MMA community, usually it's either about hilarious moments, online arguments, or fighters calling each other out.

Renzo Gracie has been featured here in the past, most notably when he was live tweeting as he handled two muggers in New York. This edition is a bit different, as the MMA legend decided to share a heart warming story as he was about to board his plane in New Jersey.

Check out the series of tweets below:

I seat to grab a beer.. Newark Airport, two beautiful ladies seat next to me. They just got married in Jersey, their happiness...

Can be seen from 100 miles away.. My plane is late, we talk for hours, they are from Sonoma, the wine capital of the USA, near San Francisco

The first place I came to in the US. They show me their wedding pictures, tell me their life history, 23 years in the making...

They were back and forward.. I ask about their family, what they think, how they see it... Every answer is positive, and great, they accept

Time for my plane to leave.. I got to go.. I give them a copy of the Gracies and the birth of Vale Tudo.. And tell them what I do

They give me a tight hug.. In a way that they would only hug those who back them up.. Tears fill my eyes.. I wish them an amazing life

As I walk to my gate my eyes glance to another amazing scene.. A woman talking to her friend through an iPhone's FaceTime...

She is talking through a sign language.. With her hands.. She is deaf... My heart fills with the noble feeling that if I die tomorrow...

The world is in great hands... In a much better hands than mine....

As for replies to his tweets, UFC heavyweight Stipe Miocic was one of many who responded to Gracie:

I sit here making stupid jokes and then read through @RenzoGracieBJJ time line and realize I need to do better.
