High school sweethearts get married 45 years later

Love is that powerful force that makes this world go round.

When two people fall in love, they’d do anything to be together. But what happens when the society is judgmental over the choice you made about whom to spend the rest of your life with? I guess these days, many wouldn’t even care what others say of their relationship, but back in the day things were quite different. When Howard Foster and Myra Clark fell for each other, the surrounding said no. Why? Because these two lovebirds had different skin color.

Howard was well aware how his relation to Myra would only bring troubles for her, so no matter how much he adored her, he knew it was for the best if the two split. When he recalls those high school days, he says how this decision was the most difficult one he had to ever make.

“I remember just sitting in my car and crying, because it was not an easy decision. I really did love her,” said Howard.

The break-up was inevitable, and both remember how they felt when the time for that last goodbye came. As they went separate ways they waved at each other for one last time, but they somehow knew deep inside they would meet again.

“I really think that wave was, I’ll see you later,” she said.

Time passed by, and Howard and Myra continued with their life. Myra never got married as Howard remained her only true love. Howard on the other hand did get married, but it didn’t last long.

It is as though life wanted for them to be together again, because their love was honest and true, and their relationship broke because of the society and all those people who expressed racist beliefs.

It was in 2014, when Howard’s and Myra’s destinies crossed again. A mutual friend of theirs thought it would be nice if they reunite and reconnect.

That so much-anticipated reunion was full of emotions and resembled a script from the most romantic movie. They were by their side again and now they wouldn’t let anything or anyone stay on their way to happiness. Racism wasn’t something that scared them any longer.

“For me, the fact that I was sitting there holding her hands is something that I thought would never happen,” said Howard. “And I was not letting her go.”

A year after that faithful encounter that took four decades to take place, the lovebirds committed to each other and wowed to love and cherish until the rest of time.

The way Howard and Myra talk of their love with sparks in their eyes is the kind of affection we don’t see that often.


Little boy refuses to leave side of dog hit by car until help arrives – Then town honors him

Kindness and compassion are so rare these days that whenever we hear stories of people caring and being gentle to those around them, we hail them heroes. However, the dream that being nice to others and offering a helping hand to the less fortunate would became our everyday reality will never fade away. Individuals like the 8-year-old Hüseyin el-Hasan are constant reminder that our faith in humanity should never be lost.

This loving boy’s life was rough even from the start. Being a Syrian, he and his family witnessed gruesome acts and felt what it’s like to be in the middle of the war. During his life, Hüseyin has experienced more tragedies than anyone can endure. Luckily, the family found a shelter in the Turkish city of Kilis where they live as refugees.

One would believe that someone like Hüseyin, who had a tough childhood and was surrounded by meanness wouldn’t know how to be compassionate, but this sweet boy never lost his goodwill and the ability to show love.

Recently, Hüseyin stumbled upon an injured god that was helplessly lying at the side of the road. Whoever hit it with their vehicle didn’t take the time to pull over and check on the dog. Luckily, this sweet boy was there to make sure it would make it until help arrived. He even went home, took his only blanket, and covered the dog with it wanting to keep it warm.

When animal control service finally arrived they could see Hüseyin next to the shivering dog. He never though of leaving it’s side. Unfortunately, due to the severe injuries, the animal passed on its way to the hospital.

It was devastating for Hüseyin to learn of the loss of the dog he wanted to save so badly. He was however happy to know it didn’t die feeling alone and not cared for. That poor creature’s last moments of life were full of compassion and sympathy.

After this story reached more people, among which the city’s mayor, he decided to personally pay the brave boy a visit and thank him for what he had done for an animal in need. Hüseyin was given a new blanket and some other presents and was told his action that day represented the best in humanity, and we all need more of that in our life and our community.

People of Kilis, as well as Hüseyin’s family are all proud of this little hero. He is a proof how we should all live by the values young kids possess.

Dog Chases Google Street View Camera and ‘Ruins’ Every Frame

Google has proved many times that its products are very useful and handy in the everyday life. Google Maps and Google Street View in particular are the two Google products that are not just useful, but sometimes quite essential for finding your way out of a certain location problem.

However, Google Maps and especially Google Street View give us the pleasure to see something more than a map. Unintentionally, Google Street View lets us see some everyday personal things, violent captured moments and even some hilarious situations. The story from Kumage, Japan is equally hilarious and cute.

The moment one little dog saw the Google Team’s van on the street, it immediately ‘fell in love’.

And what does a dog do when it sees something interesting?

It gets the initial position…

… and starts chasing! I mean, real chase!

The moment you think the chase will be short…

…is the moment when you are mistaken. The dog does not give up!

These photos amused thousands of people on the Internet. The dog’s interest in the vehicle and his decision to ‘get the van’ is so cute. This unexpected ‘intruder’ in the camera’s frames is just adorable. People’s reactions are excellent.

See how ‘stubborn’ this dog is!

The dog’s plan was apparently to follow the car up the end of the street.

Luckily, the street is a dead end.

Now the dog can relax a bit.

Dogs, and animals in general, pleasantly surprise us. This situation in Japan is an evidence of that. No wonder why dogs are one of the most loved pets in world!

Daughter makes miraculous recovery after parents kiss here

You never know when the tragedy will hits your family. One moment you enjoy the beauty of life, and the next you struggle with the a deadly threat. Those moments are difficult, and knowing that there is nothing you can do is even more painful.

This is what exactly happened to Moore-Williams family and that shook them like nothing else by then.

Lee and Francesa’s love resulted with giving birth to two beautiful kids, Bella and her brother Bobby. Until Bella turned 14 months, everything was perfect and lovely. But, then, something terrible happened. Bella was diagnosed with Mitochondrial disease.

The disease devastated the family and made the kid suffer a lot. She started losing hair, she got chest infection and Bella even started losing her abilities to move. All of these things added to the doctor’s announcement that they do not expect her to survive crushed the family. Francesa recalls:

“We were told three times that it’s not looking like she was going to survive, so every day we were sat at her bedside praying.”

After several unsuccessful attempts to take Bella off the ventilators, the doctors gave up. Francesa adds that those moments were “very traumatic and we had the whole family by our sides”.

As the end was approaching, their saying goodbye to the little angel was inevitable.

The family gathered around the young patient and took, what was supposed to be, their last photo with Bella. Soon afterwards the ventilator was switched off, they kissed the girl and were left in tears.

However, a miracle happened in the next 30 minutes. Bella started moving and crying.

Bella started showing signs of life and the hopes were back on. Doctors examined the girls once again, now without her being attached to the ventilator, and they stated that the girl will indeed survive.

That was the best piece of news they got in their lives.

Francea says:

’30 minutes later her oxygen levels were back up to 100 per cent and the traumatised parents were later told Bella would survive.’

Bella’s recovery is still ongoing. However, the life-threatening conditions are long gone. With the help of the pills, she may continue enjoying her life with her lovely family.

Bella is a fighter and she proved that love can do miracles. Her parents’ last kiss provoked some higher power that gave her life back. We hope for the best!

“She’s about eight months behind where she should be but doctors are confident she will pick up quite quickly. She’s at nursery and to look at her you wouldn’t think she’s been through what she has” – says Francesa.

Baby Annoys Passengers On Flight, But Mom Hands Them Something Out

Being a parent means undertaking responsibilities and putting actions into work, whenever there is need of them. You always have to be prepared to find your way out of an unpleasant situation that you kid, especially baby, might put you in.

When you are home you can easily solve the issues concerning your kids. However, when you travel and you have to move around the globe, even the minor problems can be embarrassing or even quite serious. All of these things were taken into consideration by a young mother that traveled from Korea to the United States.

This story would not have been known to us if Dave Corona did not share the story and the images on Facebook. The normal regular flight from Korea to the States turned out to be quite uncommon and very surprising. The flight from Korea to the USA lasts 10 hours, which is very long for a baby. Therefore, the mother came up with some unique ideas of settling her fears that the baby will disturb all the passengers in the plane. All passengers on the plane got, believe it or not, a bag full of candies and a very interesting note. The note says: This impressed and pleasantly surprised all the passengers. They marvelled at the mother’s attention to details and care for other people’s comfort. Buying all those candies, printing and cutting all those notes is a time-consuming task, but the mother endured all of that just for the baby and passengers’ well being. Incredible! Since Dave was a cameraman, he shot some photos and shared the story on-line. This story amazed thousands of people. Even though the baby was calm and did not cry during the flight, the gifts and the note were still recognized and appreciated by all passengers. Their surprise was obvious.

There are not many people like this mother in the world. She deserves all words of compliments and admiration. Well done!

Military career requires a lot of dedication and sacrifice. It is not unusual for the military personnel to spend substantial amount of time on military base or some other defence camp.

This affects the personal lives, and families have been experiencing difficult times dealing with such a situation. Enduring those difficult moments is a crucial for keeping the family together.

While Haley is playing her instrument during the school’s Veteran Day’s show, she is asked to drop the instrument and step forward. Unaware of what is happening, she obeys the requests. She stands up and she starts reading the paper she got from the organizers. At the beginning she thinks it is just another paper prepared for the Veteran’s Day, but she soon finds out it’s her father she is reading about. That astonishes her. By the time she finishes the paper, she sees her father in front of her. Haley cannot believe what she sees.

The emotional meeting in these unusual circumstances is just adorable. The father-daughter hugging and overflow of emotions warmed millions of people’s hearts.

Emerald Belles high kick routine astonishes crowd

Everyone who has seen a dance group performing an act is left thrilled. But, watching a dance group performing a dance that includes high kicks, then the thrill turns to amazement. Adding to this the Emerald Belles you have the perfect show for the dance lovers.

The Emerald Belles took part in the Showmakers of America Dance Competition, and they did a wonderful job. Learning from experience and past competitions, our expectations for the dance team is nothing less than high. Once again the team deserved every single cheer from the crowd.

Showing up in blue tights, the ladies immediately started forming the initial position. The triangular formation quickly transforms into their well-planned movements and postures. The extremely well planned movements and synchronisation with the music was just mesmerizing. Even the toughest haters could not find any mistake or missed beat. They were simply wonderful.

Dances that include high kicks are not an easy act to perform. These types of performances require speed, high level of concentration, extremely good team work and excellent synchronisation.

Skipping one move or just slight alteration of a well planned position can destroy the whole act. People usually enjoy watching these types of dances because of the energy the team spreads across the crowd. You can feel the energy wave just by watching the show.

High kick moves can be detected right away. The regular sharp lines of the formations, the energy, the fast movements and the incredible synchronisation with the music thrills millions of people. We have often seen such dances, not only during dancing competitions, but also during sports games. Famous dance groups, like Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, have been entertaining people for years.

The challenge of having a perfectly synchronized high kick dance is a difficult task. It requires a lot of practice, remembering the moves and following the instructions that are given. A minor ‘change’ of the plan can result in a disastrous chaotic performance.

The outfit of the dancers is adding an extra touch to the act. The universal outfit of the dancers usually tries to reflect the mood and the energy of the dance itself. The Emerald Belles again nailed it with the outfit and they prepared a wonderful show for the audience.

We recommend you to watch the video below and enjoy the great Emerald Belles’ performance.
