A couple that was married for almost 50 years was lying in bed when the husband started doing something that really caught the wife by surprise. She felt his arm on her body as though he was about to give her a massage.
She didn’t say a word as he continued touching her, starting from the neck down her back. He then proceeded to her shoulders and the stomach.
The wife felt nice as her husband carried on moving his hand gently to the side of her body going down her buttock and then her inner calf.
Then he did it all over again but now to her other side of the body. It was one hell of a massage.
As he was slowly placing his hand near the most sensitive part of her body he suddenly stopped and turned around not saying a single word to his wife who at this point was quite excited. She was now even more surprised by his behavior and said: “Honey, that was really amazing, why did you stop?” to what the husband replied: “Because I found the remote control I was looking for”
If this joke made you laugh SHARE it with friends.
Living with anxiety can be terrifying. People who experienced it describe it as a strong feeling that won’t let them enjoy moments of their life in a way they would love to.
It can’t be easily controlled and it may come when they least expect it.
During these rough times, it’s of crucial importance that these people have by their side a person who understands what they are going through and help them cal down.
For a young woman named Nikki Pennington, that special and comforting person was her mom.
So, when her mom said the last goodbye and left this world, Nikki felt like she had lost a part of herself. She feared there will be no one to help her during her anxiety attacks.
But even after her death, Nikki’s mom made sure her loving daughter would be well taken care of. Before she died she did something truly amazing and her girl is forever grateful for that.
Nikki shared her touching story on the Grief To Hope Facebook page, and it came as an encouragement for everyone who battles anxiety.
You can read her full post below:
Anxiety has been a part of my life for as far back as I can remember.
It’s been there for so long that I don’t really recall a time in my life without it.
If you have anxiety then you know you have that one person. The one person that knows just how to help calm you down in the midst of the anxiety fog.
That one person for me was my Mom.
She knew just what to say, how to say it and the right moment to say it to help bring me back to reality. Her words and comfort were always stronger than my anxiety.
I always just assumed she would always be there to be my person but that all changed.
It was a few weeks after my husband and I were married and my anxiety kicked in, I said, “I have to call my Mom” he paused and said, “How about you talk to me instead? Just give me a try and see if I can compare.”
So I did, I gave him a chance to help ease my anxiety and it was as if I was talking to my Mom, it was as if I was talking to my person.
The calls to my Mom when my anxiety was in full force became less and less. She never asked why, never asked about it once. That’s because Moms like mine are few and far between.
The day my Mom died I called my husband. I said, “My person is gone. The one that knew me and loved me with all my flaws. The one, the only one who could calm my fears, she’s gone.”
Then he began to tell me a story about my Mom. A story that I never knew about her before because she didn’t want me to know.
You see on our wedding day, my Mom gave my husband a note. A note that was just for the two of them. A note with the title that said, “How to be Nikki’s person.”
It was a step by step guide on what she would say and do for me when my anxiety was taking over.
Step 1: Just listen.
Step 2: Listen a little more.
Step 3: Don’t try and solve the problem.
Step 4: Tell her you understand.
Step 5: Keep listening until she’s sorted it out on her own. She will, she always does.
She doesn’t know it yet, but she’s had it figured out on her own all along,
My Mom gave up being my person not because she wanted to but because she wanted my husband to know how to be when she was no longer here. She gave up being my person so that she could make sure I would always have one no matter what.
Well Mom, you will still forever be my person.
On your wedding, the day should be full of love and laughter, and plenty of tears of joy too. The expectation of weddings we have now are ever increasing, but sadly the marriage between David and Heather Mosher was nothing but ordinary.Facebook / Heather LindsayDavid and Heather had love at first sight back in 2015 when they first met, they completed a dance course together and knew straight away that they were right for each other there and then.
Dave got on one knee, it was 23rd December 2016 to ask for Heather’s hand in marriage, under the cool ambiance of the lights in the street, while they just happened to be in a horse-drawn carriage.Facebook / Heather LindsayHeather gladly said yes to him, the couples’ great news would soon be sadly overshadowed!The very same day the two of them became engaged, Heather told David that doctors had found a suspicious lump in her breast and that it could be cancerous.Five days after that, she was given the heartbreaking diagnosis: regrettably, she had a strange and rare form of aggressive breast cancer, the prognosis at this stage was really bad.Facebook / Heather LindsayThe two of them had planned to get married on December 30, 2017, however, because of this cancer’s unusually fast growth, they soon came to realize that they would have to bring the date way forward.It is more often than not the presence of metastases, or daughter tumors, that decide the severity of a patient’s cancer. In Heather’s instance, it was a fast road to the worse kind of outcome.Happily though in December 22, nearly a full year after Dave proposed, it was time to do it and tie the knot. The amazing wedding went ahead, Heather was laying in her hospital bed surrounded by all her family and friends.Instagram / Christina Lee PhotographyOne of Heather’s best friends said:
“She was determined to marry her soul mate”
Her body was so slight and delicate at that stage that her family just draped the dress over her body like a sheet…She did though, eventually, manage to get the dress on, in the hospital’s chapel, and so the ceremony was ready to get going.Still, every breath, every action, and every moment was hard for Heather. She fought for the strength to speak her vows proudly…Instagram / Christina Lee PhotographyThese words would be her last, and maybe that’s not such a bad way in the end…
Christina said:
“It was a miracle …Even when she raised her arms and realized she would die, she was happy. She just wanted it to be a party.”
“Everyone cried …We all knew that this was the last moment with her and we would treasure every second.”
David’s day was sad and deeply hard, with pain and true heartache, but not just that, it was also filled with love admiration.David said:
“She was beautiful and she felt safe …I saw her illness. I saw her pain but she did not give up until she married me. It’s unbelievable how much you can love a person.”
Heather took her last breath only 18 hours after she said “Yes” …She was just 31-years-old.On December 30, the actual day Dave and Heather had originally planned to get married they held Heather’s funeral, it was the same place the couple had chosen for their wedding.
Christina said:
“It was a really hard day …The world lost a wonderful person.”
Christina has shared the photos she took of the lovely couple during their wedding since that day. They really have touched hearts right around the world.Instagram / Christina Lee PhotographyThis has turned out to be a really heartbreaking time for everyone involved, however, we are pleased that this story can be used to give hope to many more people.Hold on to your dreams Love will out and follow your heart!If you felt touched too then SHARE this lovely story with your friends and family!
Some of us are not so keen about bees, they feel that they just bother us and disturb our lovely picnics, but in reality, these little insects are dying out of existence slowly…These are critical as these little insects are responsible for feeding 90 percent of the world’s population, we really can’t live without them!
It’s not the case that you have to be a tree nut to respect the environment, not at all and happily there is some amazing stuff we can do to help the planet.A single person can’t do everything, but all of us together can help, and we all have a responsibility to do something to preserve the beautiful world we live in, for our future generations.
Zoologist and author, British, and best known for his work as a television presenter, you would definitely recognize his voice if you heard it…Facebook / David AttenboroughHe said on Facebook:
“If bees were to disappear from the face of the earth, humans would have just 4 years left to live”
David Attenborough is not the first person to give this grave warning to us, but his post is a real reminder that it is a real issue and we all should take it very seriously.They might well seem small and unimportant, but bees have a huge task, nearly a third of the food we eat is pollinated by these little insects
David Attenborough writes:
“In the last 5 years, the bee population has dropped by 1/3”
The situation is not hopeless at all though, one thing we can all do, an idea growing like wildfire…David Attenborough gives us a simple little tip that every one of us should try: Mix some sugar and water in a spoon and then leave it in your backyard. It really could help save your life!David Attenborough writes:
“This time of year bees can often look like they are dying or dead, however, they’re far from it. Bees can become tired and they simply don’t have enough energy to return to the hive, which can often result in being swept away.”
“If you find a tired bee in your home, a simple solution of sugar and water will help revive an exhausted bee.“
“Simply mix two tablespoons of white, granulated sugar with one tablespoon of water and place on a spoon for the bee to reach. You can also help by sharing this post to raise awareness.”
Here’s yet another way that will help bees and mankind thrive: plant flowers on your balcony maybe even let wildflowers take over a corner of your backyard. Your local bees will really love it!Facebook / David AttenboroughBess can save our planet, together we could save the planet SHARE and let’s spread the word
Listerine is a popular mouthwash used for fresh breath, fighting gingivitis and whitening teeth. But this awful tasting liquid is so much more than that…
There are at least 15 other uses for Listerine.
1. Stop Toenail Fungus
Photo Credit: Namibiauraniuminstitute.com
Toe fungus is no joke! If you feet are in terrible shape try soaking them in Listerine. To rejuvenate them and get rid of the fungus and stink, add some Listerine to lukewarm water, and dip your feet in the solution. It may take a few soaks but it’s worth it!
2. Clean The Toilet
To get rid of nasty germs, just add a cup of Listerine to water and use this solution to clean off your kitchen tops, sinks, toilet seats, floors, and practically everything.
3. Cure The Itch
To save yourself from the pain caused by a bee sting, pour some Listerine on a cotton swab and put it over the bite or itch. The pain would diminish considerably.
4. Back-Up Deodorant
Soak a cotton ball with some Listerine, rub it on your armpit area, and odor will be gone all day long.
5. No More Dandruff
A little alcohol is great for your hair. Just add a cup of Listerine to water, rinse off your hair with it and get a lustrous mane sans dandruff. You’re welcome.
6. Flea-Free Pets
Now nobody likes it dirty. Okay, some might, but your pet definitely doesn’t! Keep them happy by getting rid of the fleas that breed on them. Just add a cup of Listerine to their bathing water, and save them from pests.
7. Facial Cleanser
The alcohol in Listerine is a great way to save yourself from embarrassing zits. Just apply a small amount of Listerine to a cotton pad, apply it to the directly-affected areas,
8. Toothbrush Cleaner
Listerine does keep your mouth clean so it only makes sense that it would also keep your toothbrush clean too! Dip your toothbrush in a jar of water and Listerine solution and make your toothbrush bacteria free.
9. Screen Cleaner
Listerine is also handy to do away with all those grimy fingerprints on your TV, laptop, or cell phone screens. Mix some of it with water, pour it into a spray bottle. Spray onto cloth and use it to wipe away the dirt.
10. De-Odorize Your Trash
You almost expect your trash can to stink but after this you won’t. Just dab a cloth or a tissue in Listerine and drop it in your garbage can. Not only will this keep your garbage stink-free, it will also add a minty smell to your kitchen.
11. Stop Lice
Lice is no reason to SHAVE your head as some thought in the past. All you need to do is soak your hair in Listerine, then let it sit in a shower cap for a couple hours. Then wash your hair, and you’re good to go.
12. Remove Ticks
No one wants to be stuck with a tick. If you find one, simply place a paper towel that has been soaked in Listerine on the surface of the skin. It should let go after just a few seconds
13. Use as a bug spray
You can set off a bug bomb in your house but then you are left with the nasty odor. We like using Listerine instead. Spray some Listerine in the air just use a spray bottle. And as a bonus, it would give a super minty smell.
14.Use as an After Shave
If you happen to have cuts and itches after you shave, you can apply a small amount of Listerine to calm that fire.
15. Soothe Toothaches
Listerine also helps in getting rid of the pain caused by a toothache. Just dab a cotton with some drops of Listerine and keep it on the affected area.
Each and every year the same problems seem to crop up, whether its animals or humans, the hot summer claims many lives.How often are people told about the carelessness and extreme danger of leaving a living breathing human or animal inside a hot vehicle, under any circumstances at all?Sadly it is a huge issue that has claimed countless lives, this particular guy left a one-year-old in the car, the little girl was found dead on the Wednesday in Nashville, Tennessee, inside a parked pick-up truck.
BREAKING: 1-year-old girl dies after being left in a car seat all day in a pickup truck parked at the family’s East Nashville home. Adoptive father reportedly forgot about the child after dropping off her sibling at daycare… pic.twitter.com/JKcYxSeVez
— Metro Nashville PD (@MNPDNashville) May 24, 2018
The metro police said that the little girl had been left there, in the pickup truck outside the family home in East Nashville after her father (adopted, not her blood-related father) had taken her sibling to daycare.
It was claimed that he forgot about her there in the car and so she stayed in her car seat…The girl’s mom (also adopted, not her blood-related mom) found her in the truck in the Wednesday night, still strapped into her seat.She rushed her to the Monroe Carrell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, but it was way too late and they recorded that she was dead.It is unclear right now how long exactly she had been in the truck or if her adoptee father will face any charges for what transpired that day.
The investigation continues and the two parents have not been named until the police decide what will happen next, see the full story below:This really is a tragedy no matter how it happened, such a great shame and such a hard thing to even think about, taken before her life even had the chance to begin.It was most certainly the sort of incident that could have been avoided, and such a great and sad loss.
SHARE the love for this little girl who never got the chance at life!
Parents give so much to their kids…a home, clothing, cars, and college. Very few times is that sacrifice ever acknowledged. These four sisters made sure their parents know how much they appreciated them and all their hard work.
Karen and Chip Schoonover live in Conway, South Carolina. They have four daughters who are all grown up now, but they love their parents so much. When Karen and Chip went away on a week-long vacation, the sisters got together to give their parents a HUGE surprise.
They decided to give their parents’ house a makeover. Just after Mom and Dad departed the four girls snuck into the house and began to make changes. They headed to the local hardware store and started their video.
The first step was packing up over 30 years of ‘stuff’ and cleaning everything.
Next the girls started painting, even with these two things finished the place looked so much better.
They all pitched in day and night for the entire week. They enlisted the help of family and friends but they hustled to complete the job before their parents got home.
The moment of truth was finally here. Mom and Dad were pulling in the driveway. They waited patiently as their parents walked onto the porch giving them hugs and kisses.
As Chip and Karen walked in the door the girls caught the moment on video. The two were shocked and you will be too. Karen admits she was wishing someone would come clean while she was away but she never imagined this.
Man recently posted this online, describing a not-so-politically-correct move pulled by an airline attendant after a customer complained and insulted another passenger.
A 50-something year old Muslim man arrived at his seat on a crowded flight and immediately didn’t want the seat. The seat was next to an elderly white woman reading her Bible. Disgusted, the Muslim man immediately summoned the flight attendant and demanded a new seat. The man said “I cannot sit here next to this infidel.”
The flight attendant said “Let me see if I can find another seat.”
After checking, the flight attendant returned and stated “There are no more seats in economy, but I will check with the captain and see if there is something in first class.”
About 10 minutes went by and the flight attendant returned and stated “The captain has confirmed that there are no more seats in economy, but there is one in first class. It is our company policy to never move a person from economy to first class, but being that it would be some sort of scandal to force a person to sit next to an UNPLEASANT person, the captain agreed to make the switch to first class.”
Before the irate Muslim man could say anything, the attendant gestured to the elderly woman and said, “Therefore ma’am, if you would so kindly retrieve your personal items, we would like to move you to the comfort of first class as the captain doesn’t want you to sit next to an unpleasant person.”
Passengers in the seats nearby began to applaud; some even gave a standing ovation.
Did the flight attendant do the right thing? Share this post and let us know in the comments below.
The wife felt nice as her husband carried on moving his hand gently to the side of her body going down her buttock and then her inner calf.
Then he did it all over again but now to her other side of the body. It was one hell of a massage.
As he was slowly placing his hand near the most sensitive part of her body he suddenly stopped and turned around not saying a single word to his wife who at this point was quite excited. She was now even more surprised by his behavior and said: “Honey, that was really amazing, why did you stop?” to what the husband replied: “Because I found the remote control I was looking for”
