Woman gets into a fight with a complete stranger and throws her dog on him – The poor animal ends on the ground crying

A video posted on Twitter by a person that goes by the name @Mulaflare has gone viral these days after it showed a woman throwing a puppy on him.

The poor animal ended up on the ground and wouldn’t stop crying. The woman was acting in a strange and crazy manner and many believe she was under the influence.

Although the video starts after the confrontation which is taking place in broad daylight had already started, it’s obvious the man got attacked by the woman for no reason. He could be heard saying, “Let me get in my car,” but the woman, who is still not identified, refuses to do so and walks back and forth in a disoriented manner, speaking nonsense.

In another video of the same incident, the inner “Karen” of the woman pops up and she could be heard saying, “You’re black.” The man is in disbelief and asks her to repeat what she had just said, to what she says, “I said, you are black.” The man now gets really frustrated and says, “So what? So what if I’m f****** Black?” to what she replies, “So what if I’m f****** white?”

As he reminds her that she was the one who attacked him, he asks her whether the puppy she is holding very uncomfortably and with just one hand is hers, to which she goes completely mad and throws the poor animal at him.

The dog then rushed to the man as though she’s asking to be saved from the maniac.

The crazy woman then approaches once again and asks to take the dog back, but it’s a no, no for the man who knows the animal is definitely not safe with her. And as attacking him and yelling at him wasn’t enough, she goes on to accuse him of stealing the dog from her.

The man took the dog with him and the sweet animal is now under his care. He even opened an Instagram account dedicated to the pup now named Movie which has over 204K followers.

A GoFundMe page was also set up and people are donating for Movie. So far, over $6,000 have been raised.

We are glad the poor animal didn’t suffer any serious injuries and is now around people who truly love her.

Passenger in first class approaches a soldier on plane and says, “Sorry ma’am, I’m in your seat”

When we think of soldiers and military men and women, the first thing that comes to our mind is the sacrifice each and every one of them makes for the country. These people don’t have it easy as they are very often deployed overseas and spend long months away from their loved ones. The good thing is that we as Americans know how to pay these people the respect they deserve. I don’t think there is a citizen of our country who wouldn’t thank a soldier for their courage, devotion, and commitment to keep America a safe place.

Recently, we stumbled upon a story that restored our faith in humanity and melted our hearts. A woman named Jessica Titus wrote it for Love What Matters and we couldn’t help but share it with you.

She starts by saying how she was taking a flight recently when she spotted an Army soldier walking in front of her. In the next moment, as the soldier tried to take her seat in the economy class, something truly amazing happened. A man from the first class section approached the Military woman and said, “Sorry, ma’am, I’m in your seat.” The soldier got pretty confused and replied, “What? No—I’m in 31B.” The man then insisted that the place was his and let the soldier take his comfortable seat in the first class. He believed it was the least he could do for someone who was willing to put her life on the line for the well-being of the whole nation.

Titus was deeply touched by the man’s generosity that she decided to do a generous act herself. On a small piece of paper, she wrote a thank you note for the man and put a $10 bill.

Love What Matters via Facebook
Apparently, he refused the money, but was glad to accept the note that reminded him just how much change he made for a soldier and for the rest of the passengers who witnessed his act of kindness.

People agree how everyone should treat any member of the military the same way as this man treated the soldier on his flight.

One person commented, “Respect is never wasted….lead by example….live by good deeds… love unconditionally and never be afraid to step aside to honor others. Lessons are taught through actions not just words and none of us are too old to learn.”

Teenager who was reported to be skipping lessons was hiding in the school toilet for three days to escape from bullying

What is it that makes young children treat their classmates with disrespect and bully them? I could never understand how someone who is supposed to be innocent, as a child, feels the urge to hurt someone whom they are supposed to love. I guess those who turn to bullying are simply weak people who fail at solving their social problems and managing their emotions. But because of their personal insecurities, their victims become insecure as well, and that feeling of weakness and of lower value is sometimes present for life.

Sadly, the schools, where most of the bullying takes place, don’t always take these matters seriously and don’t do enough to protect the victims.

The parents of a teenager from Cotham School in Bristol, UK, who wanted to stay anonymous, got a call from the school about their son who was skipping classes. According to the teachers, he didn’t show up at school for three days.

His mom and dad were surprised to hear this because their son would get ready and go to school on those days the teachers said he wasn’t present.

After speaking to him, the boy admitted how he went to school but was staying in the bathroom, hiding from his bullies. This was a huge shock for the parents.

However, the school refused to believe such thing happened, which raged the parents even further. “They don’t take the situation very seriously or the well-being of [my son], who has been in the toilet for three days,” the teen’s father said.

Cotham School

After the parents made it clear they won’t be dropping the subject just like that, the school decided to launch an investigation.

“We take allegations of bullying and the well-being of our students very seriously and are working with this family to investigate,” a spokesperson of Cotham School was reported saying.

“We are, of course, saddened that one of our students felt unable to go to lessons after registering in school or to approach one of our excellent and well-trained pastoral staff for support. When we were made aware of the allegations of bullying only very recently last week, senior and pastoral staff met with the family and we immediately launched an investigation into their concerns.”

Cotham School

We can’t even imagine the fear this teenager is feeling each day. We hope the school will solve the matter as soon as possible so that he wouldn’t worry for his safety any longer.

The educational institutions should be places where our children feel safe and secure, and that must never change.

Father who posted pleas to be with daughter battling COVID-19 asks for prayers after teen suffers setback

Just as the whole world was hoping the pandemic could be coming to an end, the number of people affected by Covid-19 has increased in most of the countries. The number of cases since the start of this craziness that shook every single person on the planet is over 37.5 million, with over 1 million deaths worldwide.

The reality is that no one is spared. It can affect grown-ups, elderly, and children. Some researches even suggest that animals could get it and spread it too.

Charlee Swearingen is a 16-year-old girl who contracted the virus two weeks ago and her story went viral after her dad, Kevin Swearingen, took to Facebook to chronicle his daughter’s journey. At the beginning, Charlee, who is in a wheelchair and nonverbal because of a rare genetic neurological disorder known as Rett syndrome, was feeling okay, but soon after, her condition changed for worse as her oxygen levels dropped alarmingly. The teen was rushed to the Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston where she was placed on life support.

Charlee’s treatment consists of receiving the antibodies from Covid-19 survivors to help her fight the virus.

Initially, one parent at a time was allowed to be by her side, but that policy changed at the end of September and Kevin’s wife Jana was the only one to be able to be by their daughter’s side.

Kevin was posting pleas on Facebook every single day and was spending his days outside the hospital, right under his daughter’s room’s window. He was asking for the policy to change so that he could be able to enter Charlee’s room even if he had “to wear a NASA suit.” Eventually, the hospital allowed two caregivers per patient to be able to enter the hospital and he was reunited with his girl.

Kevin is still posting about Charlee’s condition, which sadly worsened. Doctors are now putting her back on a ventilator after they used tubes to inflate her lungs which are “still full of gunk.” He’s asking from people to pray for his daughter and says the messages they are getting from people from all over the country and beyond is what gives them the strength to endure during these hard times for the family.

Charlee, we pray for you to get well soon and go home with your mom and dad who love you unconditionally.

Everyday objects with fascinating stories behind their designs

Have you ever wondered why there are small holes on lollipop sticks, or what’s the purpose of the drawer under your oven? In case you have, we’ll try to answer the questions of the stories behind everyday objects.

Hats with Pom-poms

Wikipedia Commons

These hats look fluffy and fashionable, and make a great addition to the overall winter outfit for many, but the truth is that they were first introduced by the French sailors back in the 18th century to protect their heads from the low ceilings below deck.

The hole on Lollipop sticks

When we were little kids, I remember using these sticks to whistle, so I was convinced until today that it was the reason why they are even there in the first place. But, other than providing joy for children, the hole’s purpose is to keep the candy fixed to the stem. Small part of the candy fills the holes and that keeps the lollipop more stable.

The patch on the backpacks

This patch, which is usually made of leather, is used for tying or hooking things on the back of your backpack. Like your shoes, maybe?

The little hole on the smartphones

The hole placed between the camera lens and the flash might be super tiny, but its function is big. Believe it or not, it’s a tiny microphone, but not an ordinary one. It’s a noise cancelling microphone, or a rear microphone which helps improve the quality of audio recordings.

Number 57 on ketchup bottles

This one is quite interesting indeed. “57 Varieties” used to be an advertising slogan for the H. J. Heinz Company. The number is believed to be the founder’s lucky number and is now on each ketchup bottle. However, according to what the company’s spokesperson told TODAY Food, it serves a function that can come in handy. “The sweet spot to tap on the Heinz bottle is the 57 on the neck. All you need to do is apply a firm tap where the bottle narrows, and the ketchup will come out easier.”

The “pocket” in your underwear

Did you know that the pocket in the crotch of women’s underwear is called the gusset? Although it does look like a pocket, it’s definitely not used for storing anything. No matter what material the panties are made of, this tiny part is almost always made of cotton and the reason why is to provide extra comfort and allow breathing. One side is not sewn because an extra seam on that spot would make things very uncomfortable.

The spaces between the toffee treats made of caramelized sugar or molasses along with butter are used to help you reach your favorite sweets easier. Just press your thumb and forefinger on two diagonal holes to push up the candy.

Metal brackets on shopping carts

Doing grocery shopping can be as exhausting as much as it can be fun. Now, if you have troubles with your products spilling from the bags, simply hang them on the metal brackets behind the child seat on a shopping cart, just like on the photo above.

Switch on rear-view mirror

Someone was curious to learn what the purpose of the switch on their rear-view mirror was and took to the Internet community to find their answer. Quora users said “That little switch works like a dimmer switch. If you look at it on an angle you will see it’s not just a mirrored piece of glass. It actually has angled slats inside of it.” It means turning the mirror to anti-glare mode will protect the driver from being blinded by the headlights of a car behind.

The little arrow-like symbol on a car’s dashboard

Do you struggle to remember on which side of your car the tank is? You don’t have to be bothered with that any longer as it turns out that the arrow or the triangle placed near the gas gauge shows exactly that.

The holes in the handles of utensils are perfect for hanging the pots and pans on the kitchen wall, but they serve another purpose as well. As it turns out, the holes can be used for holding ladles and spoons while cooking. The good thing? Your counter won’t get messy.

Bride-to-be skips engagement photos to share memorable moment with her dying father

Many girls believe that “even if they find their prince one day, their daddy will always be their king” and this is very true because fathers always have a special place in their daughter’s heart and life. 

Becky Carey’s boyfriend popped the question and that made her the happiest girl out there. However, her joy was not complete because she knew that her loving father who was diagnosed with cancer wouldn’t probably make it for her wedding. 

U.S. Air Force Colonel Timothy Carey fought against the disease as much as he could and prayed to see his daughter in white on her big day. Becky was determined to make his dream come true so instead of taking engagement photos with her fiance, she decided to spend the time with her father instead. The two danced and had the time of their life and the photos are there to always remind this girl of how lucky she was to be having such brave and caring father. 

“We whispered to each other this was just practice,” Becky Carey told Good Morning America. “But I choked up at the end, realizing how important it was.”

The person behind the emotional photo-shoot, Bonnie Turner of Bonnie Turner Photography said how she felt blessed to witness such touching moments between a father and a daughter. 

“Photos are everything you have when people are gone, it’s what we have to look back on to feel that person with us,” she said speaking to GMA.

Turner even started a GoFundMe page to help the bride-to-be with the expenses around the photography and the wedding which helped raise more than $8,000. 

“I shared their heartfelt story on Facebook and so many of you have given a tremendous outpour of love. You all have asked to donate to her engagement photos and wedding expenses,” Turner wrote. 

The incredible photo-shoot took place on Oct. 14, 2018, and Becky’s wedding was scheduled for September 2019. She was grateful she had the “just in case” dance with her daddy because he lost the battle with cancer on March 2019. 

Becky’s wedding started with a video of her and her dad dancing. The guests were overflown with emotions and couldn’t contain their tears that kept rolling down their faces. The two danced to their favorite song, “Unchained Melody.” 

“He fought cancer harder than anyone. He should have died at least seven times prior. I know he was holding on for me,” the bride said.

Throughout his career of 30 years, Becky’s father earned many honors and took part in many military missions. His life ended just four days after Becky’s engagement and she’s forever grateful he was part of it. 

“I had been in chosen denial about how sick he was. We were able to talk and laugh,” Becky told Inside Edition.

“He started crying, so of course I started crying,” Becky recalled when she spoke of the day of their last dance. “It was sad. But it was also beautiful.”

Col. Carey passed away in his home. 

“We found him at 7:30 in the morning,” his daughter said of finding him in the exact position he had been in when they tucked him in the night before. “He didn’t move. I think it was very peaceful.”

This touching “just in case” dance will make you call your dad and tell him how much you love him, of course in case you are among those lucky ones who still have their ‘king’ in their life. 

Boy bullied for being overweight has the last laugh after dropping 184 pounds

Bullying can take place anywhere and can affect anyone. However, bullying kids for their appearance is the most common reason of this type of harassment.  

I am sure that you can think of someone who has gone through the ordeal of being mocked and made fun of because they were obese. 

Sadly, young Ethan Taylor was one of those people. But his story isn’t a sad one. It has a happy ending and serves as an inspiration for anyone who has ever experienced bullying because of the way they look. 

Ethan has been a chubby boy for as long as he can remember. However, his classmates thought it was enough reason to treat him with disrespect and make fun of him. 

This affected his self-esteem but he never stopped excelling at the school subjects. 

Although his high-school life was a tough one and affected his self-esteem because of the bullying he experienced, Ethan was able to attend the college he wanted because he was an excellent student. Unlike him, the bullies had to satisfy themselves with low paid jobs and a lost opportunity to graduate from college. 

Well, if they were focused on studying instead of making other students’ life a living hell maybe they would have accomplished something. 

Ethan moved places and was now miles away from his vicious classmates, but the effects of what he had gone through wouldn’t fade away. 

That and being away from home in order to attend college made Ethan eat junk food and drink heavily. On top of that, he started skipping lessons and lost interest for studying. 

In just a couple of months, he gained a lot of weight. As the pounds went up, his will to change things for the better went down. Ethan weighted 368 pounds at his heaviest. 

Seeing that number was a turning point for this young man. Something clicked inside of him and that changed his life forever. 

The New Year came with a new restitution. To lose half of what he weighted. 

But was that possible? Even if the answer was yes, Ethan was well aware that accomplishing that goal would require total dedication and staying on track. 

The first step towards his new life was joining the local gym. 

Ethan’s work-out included running outside, too. He also ditched his old habit of eating fast food. Greens, fruit, and vegetables were now on the menu. 

It was now time for braver decisions so Ethan decided to sign up for the Chicagoland Spring Half Marathon. 

Luckily, Ethan wasn’t alone in the plan to become healthy. His family was there to support him and his brother worked-out with him every step of the way.  

The marathon took place in May 2019 and was a huge success and an additional motivation for Ethan as he managed to finish it. In fact, he said that he loved it and wold definitely do it again. 

Even though he reached his goal of shedding half of his weight, Ethan still makes sure to eat healthy. He doesn’t plan on going back to fast food i]or drinking ever again. 

What’s most, Ethan didn’t only change his life for himself but for all those students who are victims of bullying because of their obesity. 

He is now planning to run a full marathon and that way help raise money for the charity organization Action for Healthy Kids. 

This young man’s dedication is such an inspiration.  

5-year-old child with autism hugs classmate, causes criminal investigation

Even though things started moving forwards when it comes to acceptance of children with autism and their place in the society, there is still a lot that we need to learn about their needs and interests and how they perceive the world around them.

A 5-year-old boy named Nathan who has autism found himself in trouble only because he showed affection towards his classmates.

Despite his condition, Nathan has grown into a loving and caring boy. His guardian, Summery Putnam, has dedicated her life to teaching him the right values he should live by. Among the rest, she taught him to show appreciation whenever someone does something nice for him.

The thing is that Nathan does it by offering hugs and kisses. You may think that it’s very sweet of him to do that, but sadly, the school he attends, East Ridge Elementary, thinks differently.

Feeling the need to show them his love, Nathan would hug his classmates. But, instead of saying thank you or something, they made fun of him and complained that he was making them feel uncomfortable.

He couldn’t really understand why his friends laughed at him when he would offer his affection, so he wouldn’t stop hugging them even after the teacher and the rest of the staff told him not to do it any longer.

What the school did next was outrageous. Instead of reaching Summer regarding the ‘problem’ her son was causing, they filed a criminal report against Nathan with the State of Tennessee, labeling him a sexual predator.

When Summer heard of that, she was beyond angry. But no one cared to listen when she was telling them how Nathan had autism and was doing things differently,

Summer did her best to explain to her son how hugging his classmates was not allowed, although he couldn’t understand what was wrong in doing so.

Nathan’s grandma, Debi Amick, was shocked as well, so she decided to share her grandson’s story on Facebook, wondering how on Earth could a 5-year-old autistic boy be accused of sexual harassment.

Among the rest, she said, “He shouldn’t be treated like this. The kid doesn’t even understand what sex is.”

Only after his caring mom and grandma spoke up for little Nathan, the injustice was corrected.

The school admitted they had gone too far but justified their action of filing the report against Nathan by saying it was based on the school’s policy of reporting such cases to the Department of Child Services.

Thankfully, Nathan’s record that said he was a sexual predator was cleaned and he was enrolled into a special education class.

Sweet Nathan had to go through an ordeal only because he wanted to get along with his friends.

We honestly hope he would be able to forget this ‘incident’ and will show amazing performance at school.

We are glad he was given the chance to start over and be around new friends who understand him way better than those who hated his innocent hugs and kisses.
