Faith Hill and Tim McGraw have been together for 24 years, and they are an example that love can be eternal in the world of fame. They are both huge country music stars who first met while on tour. Today, the musicians have three amazing daughters together and their family is always on the top of the list of their priorities.
They once admitted that when they tied the knot, they promised one another to never spend more than three consecutive days apart.
The oldest daughter of the celeb couple, Gracie is 23, Maggie is 22, and the youngest one, Audrey, is 19. The girls all resemble their beautiful mom and their parents have always tried to provide them with a normal childhood as much as it is possible.
Audrey was born eight weeks premature, on December 6, 2001, and now the family says they start the Christmas celebration a bit early ever since she was born.
“Seventeen years ago, this little precious jewel came almost eight weeks early to us!” Tim wrote on Instagram two years ago. “So tiny, but so strong!” Faith also spoke of her daughter’s birth and Christmas and told Good Housekeeping in 2007, “So this time of year just feels extra-special to us. And now, every year, to celebrate Audrey’s birthday, we decorate the tree on the sixth.”
“It’s a little bit of a challenge, keeping a live tree fresh for the entire month of December. But there’s no other way we’d do it: We decorate on the sixth, and it has to be a live tree.”
Faith and Audrey were spotted together at the Versace Pre-Fall 2019 fashion show and everyone agree they both look incredible, with Audrey being the spitting image of her mom.
Garage sales are fun and exciting because you never know what will you stumble upon. Lots of times, among the piles of things, there are objects that are worth a lot more than what we pay for.
When a couple from Texas went to a sale like this, they could never imagine their purchase could be so significant that it will make one mother shed tears of both sadness and joy.
As they were going through the items, Walter Brown noticed a large American flag that was for sale. As he took it in his hands he noticed there was something written on it. And that’s when he knew he had to have it. He only paid $5 for it, but he was aware its sentimental value was way bigger.
YouTube
The flag was full of hand written messages as a tribute to a marine who lost his life. The heartfelt words were from his fellow military members and it belonged to the family of Lance Cpl. Fred Maciel. Walter knew that it got at the market flea by accident, and he also knew that the family of the fallen marine would be happy to have it.
YouTube
Walter Brown’s son is a marine himself, and that was another reason why he felt even more compassionate for the loss of the marine’s family. He and his wife decided to do the right thing and bring the flag where it belonged. So, they tracked down Fred’s mother and were willing to hand deliver it to her. When she got to hold her son’s tribute flag again after 9 years, her reaction was priceless. She is forever grateful that her son is not forgotten.
In my humble opinion, those people who work with children and help shape them into independent and respected individuals should get all the praise for their work, yet, teachers are underpaid and most of them are forced to work two jobs in order to be able to provide for their families. This speaks a lot of the flaws of our society.
For most teachers, seeing their students succeed is enough reason to continue do their hard work because no money can ever buy that satisfaction.
One retired teacher from Pearland, Texas, named Barbara Barbin has recently found herself in an unenviable position after her credit card was declined at Walmart. She was together with her 13-year-old grandson who is legally blind. After they took everything they needed, they headed to the register, but she was unable to pay for the groceries.

She started feeling anxious and embarrassed and told the cashier to give her her card back so that she could try and withdraw some money from it through the ATM.
“(I told the cashier) let me go to the teller machine to try to see if I can get it to work,” Barbin told ABC13.
However, at that moment, four men who were standing behind her decided to step up. One of them approached closer and put $140 in Barbin’s hand. She couldn’t believe that perfect strangers could do something so generous for her.

These man saved the day and spared her and her grandson from feeling embarrassed and wondering what the rest of the customers thought of them.
Barbin didn’t have to leave the store empty handed all thanks to the kindness those men offered.
“In times like this, me being a black woman, they were four white men,” she said. “They just came up because they felt the need.”
Once home, she decided to share her story and track down the people who helped her. Although she didn’t succeed in learning who her angels were, she still wanted to thank them for their unselfish deed.
One thing that this story teaches us is that no matter how big or small, every act of kindness goes a long way.

Every child is special in their own way. But some are a bit more exceptional, just like this pair of twins named Kamis and Kachi. If you wonder what is unique about them, it’s their skin color. While Kamis is dark-skinned, his sister Kachi is totally white.
Their mother, Nigerian-Canadian photographer Judith Nwokocha, shared the brother and sister’s story along with some cool photos of them and they became sort of celebrities.
Speaking to The Epoch Time, Judith recalled how she knew she was carrying twins, even when the doctors told her she was having only one baby. Later, when it was determined she was having two babies, doctors assumed the siblings would be born with Down Syndrome.
The twins, however, were welcomed into the world perfectly healthy, with baby Kachi having white skin. “I was shocked- I thought they had handed me somebody else’s baby, I didn’t believe she was mine,” the mother said.
At the beginning, she had a hard time accepting that her children were different.
“Gradually, worry turned to sadness and I started questioning God, wondering why he would put me in such a situation. I worried about her future, how society would treat her, how she’ll be accepted…
“I envied other black babies and thought, ‘Why me? Why was I the one to have an albino baby? How did I get black and white twins?”‘
Over time, she learned how to focus on the positive side and that was that her baby was happy and healthy, and that was all that mattered.
“I began to see the beauty in her condition. I began to admire her gold hair, her brown eyes, her pink lips and everything about her,” the mom wrote for Love What Matters.
“I noticed how attractive she was to people whenever I took them out. People admired her a lot and she is usually the one who gets all the attention.”
And yes, she says that her girl looks exactly like her.
This loving mother teaches her daughter that being different is a good thing and tells her not to be affected by the stares from random strangers she meets on the steet.
“It took me a while to realize I’m going to be raising an albino- I was really concerned about what people were going to say, it’s not a very usual thing to have an albino and a black baby,” Judith said.
“I was also sad, I was worried about how she is going to go through society, how people are going to treat her.
“I’m not sure she’s aware of her uniqueness at the moment, but eventually she’ll know, and it’s my responsibility to educate her and teach her to love herself no matter what.”
Kamis and Kachi are not only a brother and a sister, but also best friends who love spending time together. They don’t feel like they are different from one another, because they may not share the same skin color, but they definitely share many traits and love the same things.
We say they are very beautiful the way they are, each on their own way.
With a huge number of iconic hits and as many awards under his belt, Sir Elton John is one of the most influential musicians in the music industry. Throughout his long and successful career, he treated the world with music pieces which seem to become more and more popular as time passes by.
He is one of those superstars who took the world by storm and has remained on the pedestal for a very long time.
Elton’s love for music started when he was very young. At the age of just 4, he learned how to play the piano and knew that music was his calling.
“As a child, I got approval and love when I sang at family gatherings or weddings, and I felt safe and happy. Then I came off stage and, again, I had to deal with what was going on in my life,” the singer told CBC.

Speaking of his childhood and his relationship with his mother and father, Elton revealed in an article he wrote for the Guardian: “My dad was in the RAF so he was away from home a lot, and when he got back, he tried to impose new rules about everything: how I ate, how I dressed. That would set Mum off. I got the feeling they were staying together because of me, which just made things more miserable.
“The best way to escape it was to shut myself in my bedroom with my record collection and my comics, and drift off into an imaginary world, fantasizing that I was Little Richard or Ray Charles or Jerry Lee Lewis. I made my peace with it all years ago.
“They divorced when I was 13, both remarried, which I was happy about, although my relationship with both of them was always tricky. I was closer to Mum than Dad, but there were long periods when we didn’t speak. And my childhood is one thing I’m still sensitive about.”

At the age of 17, Elton started performing with a group named Bluesology, and in 1967, he met the man who became his best friend for life and with whom he achieved great things and reached for the stars. The first ever encounter between Elton and the person behind almost all of his songs, Bernie Taupin, happened when they both saw an ad in a local newspaper for Liberty Records.
Bernie was the perfect lyrics writer, and Elton was the best at making music, so they made the perfect match.
Iconic Crocodile Rock, Island Girl, Bennie and the Jets, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me, Nikita, I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues and Candle In The Wind, among the rest, are just some of the songs the two worked on together. Pure magic, one would say!
Speaking of his eccentric performances, his huge glasses, and the costumes he wore on stage, Elton said it was that what gave him a sense of freedom. “Suddenly, I could dress how I wanted,” he said. “I could do what I wanted for the first time in my life.”
During a performance in Auckland, New Zealand, in 2020, as part of his final three-year tour Farewell Yellow Brick Road which he announced in 2018, Elton lost his voice. He was visibly distressed and told the audience: “I’ve just completely lost my voice. I can’t sing. I’ve got to go. I’m sorry,” and left the stage.
Elton revealed that he suffers from walking pneumonia, a type of lung infection, often caused by bacteria or viruses.

As he put his tour on hold because of the pandemic, Elton could focus on his health while at home.
“During lockdown I’ve really gotten fit. I’ve walked in the pool, I’ve played tennis,” he told People. “I just wanted to come out the other side not overweight and feeling that when I go back on tour I’m going to be the fittest I’ve ever been.” The singer is working out and feels great.
How would you react if bullying takes place right in front of you? Would you step up for the victim and confront the bullies, or would you not interfere at all?
The truth is that different people react in a different manner when they find themselves in such situations. John Quiñones, the host of the TV show What Would You Do? observes how orinary people react when they face situations which impose the dilemma that requires from them to either take action or simply walk by. Everything is filmed using hidden cameras so each of the reactions is genuine.
In one of the episodes, a bagging clerk with Down Syndrome, played by an actor, is getting offended by rude customers, who are also actors. The filming of this particular episode took place at Kilroy’s Wonder Market within New Jersey. As customers were waiting for their turn at the register, they commented how slow the clerk was, with one even wondering why would anyone hire him in the first place.
Some of the customers are taken aback by the behavior of those who offend the clerk and decide to intervene, while others opt to ignore the entire situation and mind their own business.
The reaction of one particular customer, however, is what caught our attention.
An elderly woman, the one in the red shirt, sympathizes with the clerk and helps him with the packing, not wanting others to accuse him of being slow. She even gives him a hug before leaving the store.
These series, and videos like the one below, in which we see strangers stepping up for one another teach us that humanity is still pretty much alive, and we are so touched by that fact.
It doesn’t come as a surprise this emotional video has been seen by over 11 million people.
It’s so heartbreaking to know that it takes a little for many to be forced into homelessness. With the economies going down because of the ongoing pandemic, a huge number of people who have lost their jobs fail at making ends meet. When one is a single parent, it is even harder.
Suzanne Burke is a regular at the Dunkin Donuts drive-through in Mount Healthy. Over the years, she has always been greeted and served by 33-year-old employee and a mother of three, Ebony Johnson.

During the last couple of weeks, Burke noticed that Johnson wasn’t working. She got concerned and could feel something was wrong. Then, one day, Johnson was at her job again and Burke couldn’t help but ask if everything was fine.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t. As it turned out, Johnson and her kids got evicted and were now homeless. Despite her personal struggles, Johnson has always greeted her customers with a smile on her face, so not many people were aware of her condition. But since Bruke felt like the two became sort of friends over the years, she was aware of how devastated Johnson was.
“I wanted to give up,” Johnson told TODAY “I cried. I come to work every day and nobody knows what I’m going through because I always try to have a smile for our customers.”
Source: YouTube/ WCPO 9
Having working with social services her entire life, Bruke offered to use some of her connections in order to help Johnson get new lease of life.
Around nine months later, just before Christmas, Bruke managed to provide a new home for Johnson and her kids, all thanks to different organizations. She also received help from a number of local businesses that were more than happy to furnish the apartment.

“Oh my God, it was so amazing, I just busted out crying,” Johnson said of her family’s new place. “I never had a full furnished house. I never had help like this. I had been asking God to put us in a home before Christmas, and He really did. I’m just so thankful,” she told TODAY.
We are so glad this lovely family would get to celebrate Christmas in the warmth of their beautiful home.
Sometimes, being in the right place at the right time isn’t enough to make things right. Often, it also takes courage to show you are ready to stand for those in need and for the vulnerable.
What seemed to be a night out like any other turned into an experience these four young boys will never forget. Arnaud Nimenya, Carsyn Wright, James Hielema and Starlyn Rives-Perez were skateboarding in an underground parking lot when they saw a quite unusual sight. A young girl, around 15 years old and intoxicated, had been forcefully dragged through the place by a well-dressed older man. This alarmed the boys who could feel something wasn’t right. The girl’s condition was pretty bad. She was so drunk that one of the boys recalls how “she was screaming and yelling. She just wanted to be out of there. She was all scuffed up and dirty.”
But, after the boys approached closer in hopes of helping the girl get rid of that man, he claimed he was her father. She didn’t really say anything regarding that so they decided to step back.
“You don’t want to really think of the worst in somebody like that. You don’t want that situation to be real, so you just brush it off and hope for the best,” Wright said.
However, the boys’ somehow knew he wasn’t telling the truth so they decided to turn around and check on the girl once again.
CBC News
It turned out it was a decision that would help save this lady’s life.
Having returned back, they were completely shocked by the gruesome sight. The man was sexually assaulting the young woman who was helpless and couldn’t defend herself.
“You walk in, and you see something like that, and you freeze. You don’t know what to do,” Nimenya, one of the young men, said.
They knew they had to act as quickly as they could so they ran towards the attacker. He started running and attempted to escape the parking lot.
“He was trying to walk out and walk away from us,” said Nimenya. “He pushed me aggressively out of the way, kinda like just gives me the smile, like, ‘I can do this. You can’t do anything about it.’”
These young heroes wouldn’t just let the attacker off the hook so they were determined to catch him. This ended with a physical confrontation after the man started hitting the boys with one of their skateboards. Luckily, the police arrived just in time.
The boys were glad the woman was now safe and sound. The police officers, however, wouldn’t allow the boys’ heroic deed go unnoticed so they decided to thank them for their bravery and courage by inviting them to the Chief’s Awards Gala where they would be presented with awards and the public recognition they deserved.
We are so proud of the way these young men handled the situation. They even risked their life for the well-being of a vulnerable and defenseless lady. You guys are our real life heroes and a true inspiration.
The Armed Forces are, sure enough, a challenge, and having a son or daughter who are in the Armed Forces is both amazing and equally if not more so challenging in every way, especially about their safety and longevity. Which is why you take every chance to see your child as much as you can at every opportunity!
Heather Almond has this realization every single day because her son Gavin recently enlisted in the US Army and is currently going through the basic training there!
Heather jumped at the chance to spend a weekend with her son, of course, and quickly made her way to Fort Benning in Georgia to see him.
Just like any proud mother, she took her son out to lunch closeby at a sushi restaurant, but when she asked for the cheque something completely unexpected happened!
What happened nextshe just had to share on Facebook:
“This weekend I went to visit my son at Fort Benning with my daughter and mother. He is at basic training and it was a family weekend.
He loves sushi, so we found a Japanese restaurant.
We probably ordered $100 worth of food and when we went to pay, the waitress said that the people at the other table had picked up or bill and they said to thank your son for his service.
They were gone before I found this out, but I happened to snap a picture of my son that had one of the people in the background.
I don’t know who she is, but I can tell you that it meant the world to us. We will find a way to pay it forward.”
These kind people have seen that Gavin was spending time with his family, in between basic training, and without even going over to them, wanted to help out.
Gavin’s family really will remember this moment for all time!

Every dog needs a friend with whom they can have fun and goofy around. Unfortunately for Cash, a 12-year-old Golden Retriever, his best furry friend passed away.
The two were inseparable and would spend their days running around together, but now, Cash was all by himself. Although his human parents love him to the moon and back, it was obvious he missed Rosie very much.
Marie Ahonen, Cash’s mom, decided it was just about time to bring another dog in the house. With Cash always being the good boy he is, that would be his ultimate Christmas present. Plus, they will provide a puppy with a forever home, which means they’ll grant the wishes of two dogs this year.

The family made sure to capture Cash’s reaction on tape. As they brought the box with the puppy in the room, the big brother could feel something was going on and felt curious to check it out. Just as he approached to sniff it, the lid opened and a tiny head popped up.
Needless to say, the bond was instant. These two are bound to become best friends.
Check Cash’s reaction in the video below and make sure you share it with a dog lover.
Bravery knows no age and quick-thinking can surely save lives. Carlos, a 7-year-old boy from Los Angeles possesses incredible heroism and exceptional intellect, two things which helped a dire situation end up with a positive outcome.
One day, as he and his family were inside their home, armed men entered the place. They held Carlos’ mom and dad at gunpoint while he and his little sister managed to hide in the bathroom.
Without hesitation, Carlos dialed 911, just as his mother taught him, and asked for help. On the other side of the line was 911 operator Monique Patino.
Source: YouTube/ CNN
She could hear Carlos explaining how some bad guys had guns and wanted to kill his mom and dad. “There’s some guys! They’re going to kill my mom and dad, can you come please. … Can you come really fast? PLEASE, PLEASE,” Carlos kept saying.
Patino, who is doing her job for many years said that out of all the calls she has ever received, this one was by all means the most “horrific” one. She was very scared for the boy’s safety and kept assuring him that police were on their way.
“Bring cops … lots of them!” Carlos begged.
Source: YouTube/ CNN
As Patino was doing all in her power to calm Carlos down, she suddenly heard loud screaming. “Once I heard the screams, I’m holding the phone and shaking, in tears. All I can hear is them screaming,” she told CNN.
The armed people heard noises coming from the bathroom and broke the door down. When they saw Carlos was on the phone, they demanded to tell them who he was talking to and he wasn’t afraid to tell them straight away that he called the police and that they were on their way to his house.
In the next moment, the gunned men fled the house without hurting anyone.
Source: YouTube/ CNN
The Los Angeles County sheriff’s department praised young Carlos’ bravery. If it wasn’t for him, God knows what would have happened. His parents must be proud and very thankful for saving their lives, especially his mother who knows that the emergency lessons she taught her son weren’t time wasted but came in handy when they needed them the most.
Life can be unpredictable. The truth is that we can never know what tomorrow brings and that is why we should never lose hope that things could turn for the better even if we believe that there is no way out.
The story of an 8-year-old boy named Aaron Moreno who had high hopes and dreams teaches us exactly that.
It turned out that this bright boy loved having Cheetos and ice-cream, two of his favorite snacks, but his mother had a hard time providing for the family. Being on her own, with children and jobless, she could hardly afford to buy her children ice-cream, so whenever the ice-cream truck would stop by the shed in which they lived, her heart broke into million pieces.

“When I lost both my jobs in March because of the corona-virus pandemic and we had no option but to live in a shed, this kid was always asking for Hot Cheetos,” Aaron’s mom, Berenice Pacheco, told CNN. “It’s just $3, but when you have kids and you don’t have a job, it can make all the difference.”
Seeing his mom struggle, Aaron decided to do all in his power to help her. He also wanted his family to move out of the shed which didn’t have any bedrooms, bathrooms, or air-conditioning.
Using his mom’s last $12, Aaron decided to buy succulents and resell them.
“Our shed was hot and crowded and I wasn’t happy,” Aaron shared with CNN. “I started my garden so my mom won’t be stressed because I don’t like seeing her struggle.”
On the first day, Aaron managed to sell everything. He made little profit and decided to invest it in more succulents thus try to start a business. Both he and his mom would take a bus to the flower district to buy the supplies they needed for the day. Most times, they were selling from their shed, but occasionally, they would create pop-up shops.
Being proud of her son’s hard work, Berenice shared photos of him and his garden on Facebook. The photos gathered the attention of many and a friend decided to start a GoFundMe page in order to help the family.
The initial goal was to raise $1,000. Believe it or not, they ended up raising around $56,000, enough for a new place.
With the money, they were also able to bring Aaron’s sister home from Mexico.
“The best part of what Aaron has done for us is bringing back his sister,” Berenice said. “It was so hard being without her and we are a whole family again. And I was so happy to see they still had their amazing bond even if they spent so much time apart. It’s such a blessing.”
The succulents business is growing bigger and bigger all thanks to Aaron’s hard work and determination to improve his family’s life. He is now selling more types of flowers. What a thoughtful young man he is.
The number of people who are forced into homelessness is huge. Their life on the street is beyond difficult, but most times, there’s nothing they could do to change their fate. Luckily, there are always those who do, just like two women named Jennifer Husband-Elsier and her friend Melissa Akacha who stepped up for a women in need and changed her life.
70-year-old Lynn Schutzman had a great life. She worked as a pharmacists her entire life and was involved in a happy marriage. Sadly, all that changed when her husband of many years passed away and her health deteriorated. As a result, medical bills started piling up and she couldn’t make ends meet. Unfortunately, this loving woman ended up on the street and was forced to live in her SUV for over two years. The only companions she had were her two dogs.
Source: YouTube/ WBUR
One day, Jennifer Husband-Elsier took a notice of Lynn. In the days that followed, Jennifer saw Lynn parked at the Target parking lot multiple times and realized she was living in her car. The sight broke her heart and she knew she needed to do something.
The first thing that came to mind was to reach to the rest of the members of the community.
“Does anyone know anything about the elderly woman with 2 dogs that has recently been living in her car under the covered part of the Target parking lot? I spoke to the police and they said she’s been living like this for over 2 years in different areas of [King of Prussia]. … It’s an awful scenario. Really, really upsetting,” she wrote on the social media.
Source: YouTube/ WBUR
In no time, she got plenty of messages from people who shared her concerns. Many offered food and clothes, and although that was all very kind, it didn’t help solve Lynn’s problem.
Jennifer and her friend Melissa went a step further and started a GoFundMe page.
To their surprise, many people donated money and they were soon able to raise enough for a two year rent.
Before they told Lynn the happy news, the community gathered and decorated the place.
Source: YouTube/ WBUR
Needless to say, when Lynn checked it out she was over the moon and couldn’t hide her gratitude and the tears of joy which kept rolling down her face.
However, the kindness of the members of the community didn’t stop there. They bring Lynn cooked food and a bunch of things needed in order for her to function properly. Some even offer to walk her dogs, and Jennifer invited her over to celebrate Thanksgiving with her family.
“It wouldn’t have happened without these angels,” Lynn told ABC News. “I just want people to realize that this can happen to anybody. … I had a good job. I had good retirement but I got sick and health insurance only covers so much. … I have no children. I have no family. .. I had nowhere to turn. Sometimes, you know, just the kindness of strangers just makes all the difference in someone’s life.”
Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. It is the time when true magic happens and miracles take place.
An employee at Costco named Eric Barragan was cleaning the aisles when a crumbled piece of paper caught his attention. He thought it was garbage, but he then noticed the handwriting belonged to someone young so he decided to take a closer look. It turned out it was a Christmas list.
Source: YouTube/ CBS Los Angeles
He expected the list to contain everything young children love, like toys, chocolates, or even fun games. And yes, the person who wrote it wanted some shirts, Minecraft figures, Hot Wheels (but only two), a horror video game called “Five Nights at Freddy’s”, a wallet, and a Gamestop gift card. However, it wasn’t all. There were two things written down that not many children would ask for; “Bringing peace and joy to the world” and “Just love.”
Barragan was astonished. “Most kids don’t ask for those things, and I thought that was pretty special,” he told CBS 2.
Source: YouTube/ CBS Los Angeles
As the list warmed his heart, he decided to track down the young person who wrote it and give him some of the things he wanted for Christmas. Well, at least those he could buy.
The only problem was that he had no idea who that list belonged to, he only knew the name of the kid because it was written down. Barragan could go through the camera footage, but that would take quite some time, so he decided to share the list on his Facebook page.
Soon after, he got a message from someone who knew the boy’s family. The list belonged to Julian Huey, who had no idea Christmas would come early for him.
Source: YouTube/ CBS Los Angeles
Barragan bought a bunch of presents, including everything from the list, and paid Julian a visit.
The boy was over the moon. He was so happy that he had a hard time hiding his excitement. His parents were as thrilled by the kind gesture. Julian’s mom explained how the family had a hard time make ends meet because they were relying on just a military pension.
“I think I spent the first half of the last 24 hours just in shock,” the mother told CBS 2.
Sweet Julian said, “All I want, mostly, my biggest thing is a big heart to love everyone and bring joy to the world.”

Have you ever filled the conveyor with your groceries then realized you forgot your wallet, that tremendously embarrassing “oh sugar” moment! Maybe even one stage further, getting told in front of a crowded queue of people that your card has been declined!
One guy recently had to go through exactly this scenario, but he really did not expect what happened to him after that…
Flickr/Steve Snodgrass
Standing in the Dollar General queue was Tim McKellar, he saw a real sight, a hardly believable moment that he would remember forever!
Tim was waiting to pay for his groceries and the cashier scanned items from the elderly Gentleman in front of him, he was ever so proud and wearing a veteran cap.
When the guy gave his card for payment, he couldn’t remember his pin, his card was declined, poor chap.
Tim posted to Facebook:
“He tried a couple different times when another lady offered to help him again with no luck.”
At that moment the cashier stepped in and changed the tone of the day completely for this veteran…
Flickr/Steve Snodgrass
Working at the Dollar store, Jacob Wittman, at the cash register that day decided that he could not watch the guy swipe and it not work again, so he pulled out his wallet …his wallet!
Tim said:
“That’s when the cashier Jacob Wittman pulled his wallet out and told the lady (who had been helping) to scan his card.”
The veteran, was a little bit confused what was going on, he asked the cashier, have you just bought my groceries?
Jacob said:
“Yes, sir I did. And, you don’t owe me a dime.”
Tim felt so touched by what just happened, that human connection he just witnessed, he felt the need to record it and share it online, the world needed to see it too!
He said finally:
“Now this kid obviously makes minimum wage or real close to it and probably didn’t have the extra money to spare. I thanked him for what he had done, asked for his name and took his picture.”
“Let’s give this Good Samaritan the acknowledgment that he deserves.”
Flickr/Steve Snodgrass
The post got about 3,000 positive reactions and has been shared over 1,400 times, that is certainly the acceptance and congratulations that were deserved!
Some comments Facebook said:
“Such an awesome act of kindness. Sending you a big hug and many blessings from miles and miles away.”
“Jacob, you are a good-hearted young man. Thank you for helping the elderly and veterans. God bless you!”
“God bless you, young man. So many people could learn from you, what it is to show kindness. You are an inspiration to us all. Thank you.”
It is really lovely acts of kindness like this, one human reaching out to another, someone in need that inspires us to make a real difference in others lives and to perhaps do the same for someone else too.

Living with any form of disability can be quite challenging, and sweet Ryder Kilam, a five year old boy who is in a wheelchair, knows that best.
In order to get to school, Ryan uses the bus, just like his friends, but the difference is that they can easily wait for the bus to make a stop in front of their home while still inside and simply run towards it when they spot it. Ryan, on the other hand, has to wait outside, at the bottom of the sidewalk, otherwise, he could easily miss it because his house is around 75 feet away.
No matter if it’s sunny, rainy, or showy, Ryan has to stay outside waiting.
His parents, who make all in their power to ease his life as much as possible, take him outside earlier, but when the weather is bad, that doesn’t seem like the perfect solution.
One time, they placed a patio umbrella at the bottom of the driveway in order to keep him from the sun and the rain, but even slight wind would negate the covering of the umbrella.
Unable to find a solution to their problem, Ryan’s parents decided to ask the community for help.
A construction class at Westerly HS learned a 5-yr old was in need of a sheltered area to wait to his bus in the morning. Ryder,can’t run outside like most kids and had to wait in the rain but not anymore thanks to the kindness of students who built him a bus stop! @ 5:30 @NBC10pic.twitter.com/cl4a3xKXJ7
It took a while, but eventually, the post reached just the right people. Professor Dan McKena from the Westerly High School who teaches construction technology though that getting involved in a project of building a “bus hut” for little Ryan would be of great importance both for the little one and his students. While doing a good deed, the students would be given an opportunity to put their knowledge into practice, so it seemed like a win-win situation.
“I think my first email was, absolutely we’re in,” professor McKena told WJAR. “We’ve done other projects before. I think it’s very important for my students to learn not only the aspects of construction but of being involved in the community dealing with people outside of the school environment.”
Home Depot also got involved in the project and donated $300 worth of materials. The rest of the expenses were covered by Ryan’s mom and dad.
The final result was a an ADA accessible structure perfect for the soon-coming weather!
Ryan’s dad said that his son loves his bus hut so much that he wants to spend time inside even when he’s not waiting for the bus. “He loves it, he actually after school makes us stay out here and hang out, now it’s his new fort.”
Thanks to professor McKena and his students, one sweet boy’s life became much easier. Thank you!
When these mom and dad were about to bring the newest addition to the family home, they feared of the reaction of their older son. Neither of them could help but wonder whether the boy would love his baby sister. Would he feel neglected? Would he be jealous?
Luckily, they had nothing to fear about. It turned out that their son couldn’t wait to hold his baby sister in his arms. He loved spending time with her and taking care of her. However, one very special moment the siblings shared is what caught their parents’ attention.
As they placed her in his lap, the proud and overly excited brother started singing a very special song to her; “You are so beautiful.”

Not many people are familiar with the story behind the lyrics of this iconic piece of music. It was written by Billy Preston and Bruce Fisher and celebrated Preston’s mother who was a stage actress. It meant a lot to the musician, so when he learned that Fisher used it during concerts to attract women’s attention, Preston felt appalled.
Years after it was written, musician Joe Cocker released a slower version of it and the song became his highest charting solo hit, peaking at number five on the United States’ Billboard Hot 100.
Until this day, it remains one of the most beautiful songs ever made, so the little brother singing it to his sister is beyond heartmelting.
We are so glad this emotional moment was caught on tape. You can take a look at it in the video below.
What makes a good friend? Is it someone you share similar interests or passions with? Someone who understand you and is there when you need them the most? Well. the truth is that friendship can sometimes happen between the most unlike friends. If you don’t trust us, just take a look at the following story.
A man named Seppo Laamanen from Finland, 65, got outside of his home one day just to spot a strange animal standing at his door. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he realized the creature was a wild otter. Clearly undernourished, it was obvious the otter was looking for some food.

Seppo was kind enough to give his visitor some warms and fish. Once the otter filled its belly, it went away. Seppo was sure it was a one time encounter, but he couldn’t be more wrong. The otter kept coming and started feeling more and more comfortable around Seppo.
Even today, the sweet animal pays its human friend a visit every now and then. Isn’t that adorable?

We tend to believe that young people are careless. The truth is that most of them are only interested in hanging out with friends and having fun. But there are also those who pay close attention to their lessons and gather knowledge on different subjects, something that comes in handy when they need it the most.
A teen named Matt Stauffer from Carbon County saved the day and the lives of his fellow classmates thanks to his quick thinking and the emergency-related lessons he had at school.

That morning seemed like any other. He boarded the school bus and headed to his seat when he noticed his friends had strange looks on their faces. It was obvious they were frightened and confused. Matt had no idea what was going on, but he then became aware of the danger that was lurking.
When he took a look at the bus driver, Matt knew trouble would be on the way unless he reacted quickly. The driver didn’t feel fine and was leaning out of his seat.
Speaking to ABC affiliate WNEP 16, Matt said, “So I turned around, and the bus driver was like leaning out of his seat and only his seatbelt was holding him up.”

He rushed to the driver’s seat and noticed his foot was still on the gas pedal. Matt reached for the keys and turned the bus’ engine off. He then instructed the students to get out of the bus and called 911.
“Once they saw I was taking control, they all listened to me and they got off the bus and they all stayed in one area,” Matt said of his friends.

Luckily, first responders arrived just in time to take the bus driver to the hospital. He’s now feeling fine and is home resting.
Superintendent Dr. Brian Gasper told WNEP 16, “It’s refreshing to know that the students paid attention and employed the skills that we gave them last week, but also just snapping into action and the focus that he and the other students exhibited.”
As the school district is planning on expressing appreciation to Matt and the rest of the students, the teen says his act wasn’t heroic, he just did what he thought was right.

We never know what plans God has for us, nor what life brings, but the only thing we know is that we should never lose hope that at the end things are going to turn just fine as long as we don’t stop believing in miracles.
This is the amazing story of Heather Crockett Oram of Utah, submitted by her. It’s about her life, her struggles, and her joys. She’s being honest when she speaks of her inability to become a mother of a child she would carry inside of her, which doesn’t make her less of a mother to the beautiful children who entered her life this way or the other. It’s so touching and sweet that you may not be able to hold your tears back.
“When I was 6 weeks old, I went to have an ultrasound for tummy issues and they noticed my ovaries were not hooked up right. The doctor at the time felt it would be best to remove them completely. When I was 13 years old, I found out I would never be able to have children. It was then that I started researching adoption. As I grew older my biggest fear was to have to someday tell a prospective spouse that I would never be able to birth our children. Then I met Jason. He was a single dad to 2 wonderful little boys and we fell head over heels.

“Before we got engaged, I told him the biggest secret of my life. One that only a handful of people knew about me. I sobbed as I told him. He then grabbed my face and told me it didn’t matter how our children came to us. They would be OUR children. Last June we were approved to adopt. After a lot of research, we didn’t want to go through an agency. There were too many shady ones out there and they cost close to $55K when all is said and done. So we set out to do it on our own. We ‘marketed’ ourselves online and through social media. We made a Facebook adoption page and paid for targeted ads. We had an Instagram page with pictures of our life and we also put our profile on adoption.com. We were contacted by a handful of women and most turned out to be scams. Then we got a message on Facebook. A young woman emailed us telling us that her friend was pregnant and looking for a family.
“September 1st we got a phone call from this woman in Missouri and we talked for an hour and a half. Over the next month we built our relationship and became increasingly excited. However, she never got us official proof of pregnancy. People can fake ultrasounds and blood tests online all the time. I was ready to commit because I trusted this woman, but my husband wanted to renew our adoption.com profile one more time. We renewed it on October 1st and on October 2nd we got a message from another expectant mother. She had been watching our profile and wanted to meet us. Two days later we met in a little diner 20 minutes from our house. Just when we thought she had stood us up, in walked a very pregnant girl and her mom. We hugged and she showed us the ultrasounds of a little baby boy. He then started kicking and she had me feel her belly. Towards the end of breakfast she asked us how we felt. She then asked us if we would adopt her baby and love him forever. Jason and I sobbed. In the middle of a diner. In complete shock. 3 weeks later we stood there and watched as our son Andy was born. I was the first to hold him and kiss his tiny hands. That was October 30th, 2017.

“As we took Andy home and adjusted to being new parents, I had continued to talk to the first expectant mom we had matched with. She had still never given us proof. She had also told us congratulations and that she found another family for her baby. I was happy for her and we maintained occasional contact over the next couple of months. In January of this year I received a phone call from this same woman. She told me she had just told the other family she did not feel good about them adopting her baby. She then told me that she knew this baby was supposed to be ours. I stood there holding my 3-month-old baby boy and she sent me pictures of an ultrasound of the baby boy growing in her stomach. I was speechless. But I also knew. Deep down I knew.
“Over the next two weeks my husband and I prayed a lot about adding another newborn to our family only months apart. The same resounding answer came again and again. Six weeks after that phone call we flew out with Andy to Missouri and met a woman and her three children the night before she was being induced. We all instantly connected. The next day we stood at her bedside and watched as our son Ellis was born. Jason even got to cut the cord. I was first to hold him and again kiss his tiny hands.

|Never did we imagine having 2 newborn babies only 4 months apart. Adoption is an amazing thing. Because of a woman’s greatest sacrifice and selfless decision, I became a mom. To 2 of the most perfect baby boys I could have ever asked for.

|We have open adoptions with both of our boys’ birth parents. We talk and send pictures and recently met up with Andy’s birth parents at a nearby park.

“Four months after Ellis was born we had a strong feeling to reach out to his birth mom and she had mentioned they were in a rough spot. Jason and I decided to then fly her oldest child out to visit us for 10 days so he could spend some time with Ellis. Sean had never been on a plane or been that far away from his home. We instantly fell in love with this sweet boy. 10 days eventually turned into all summer.

“At the end of summer, he asked if he could to watch his new friends try out for football. Before we knew it, he was talking to the coaches and asked if he could try out. Sean made the top football team for 8th grade in his first year ever playing an organized sport. He called his mom and asked her if he could stay. She said whatever would make him happy. Sean has now been living with us for 6 months and his football team made it all the way to playoffs.

“Never did we imagine one year ago that we would be adding 3 more children in under 9 months (especially all boys) to the 2 that we already had. I have not given birth to any of the 5 boys we have at home right now. But I am their mom. We have since finalized both Andy and Ellis’ adoptions. They are officially Orams. We share custody with our oldest two boys and their mom. And we don’t have a timeline as to how long Sean will end up staying. Family does not have to be made from blood. It can come in many shapes and sizes. Love is all that matters. So here we are. A current family of 7. We love each other deeply. And go on a lot of adventures together. It is not always easy. There have been many ups and downs and everything in between. But we wouldn’t trade it for the world.”
Pit Bulls are most undervalued animals. They have a reputation of being aggressive, but that’s far from reality. This breed is so sympathetic, loyal, and caring, that they used to be considered nanny dogs and were often left to keep an eye on young children. Over the years, however, they started being used in fights which led for them to be dubbed hostile.
Aladdin is a very special Pit Bull who seems to posses power to sense when someone’s feeling down. This dog had a very tough life. Someone starved him so much in the past that he lost 12 of his teeth and experienced severe orthopedic issues which left him with permanently damaged knees, and as a result, Laddy, as his new mom calls him, can’t bend his legs. Despite all that, he is always there for everyone in need of a friend and some love.

After Michele Schaffer adopted Aladdin, she realized he could be a great therapy dog, and she was right. Shortly after he became a therapy dog, Aladdin received an award from the American Humane Association for the work well done.
Schaffer shared that one time, as she and Laddy were among a group of people and he got petted, he suddenly jumped and headed towards a young boy. As it turned out, the little guy had brain cancer, and Laddy could sense that.
Aladdin’s life story is so worth sharing because he’s a proof that no matter how hard things get, we should always find a reason to live for and be there for those who go through struggles.
Make sure you watch the entire video. It’s going to melt your heart.
John Goodman, like most famous actors, knew that he wanted to be part of the film industry from very young age. At one point of his life, he even considered becoming a radio DJ, but the theater and film seem to always be his calling.
During his college years, Goodman excelled in sports but an injury prevented him from becoming a professional, so he decided to move from Missouri to New York and try his luck at the theater. He rented a tiny apartment with his brother’s help and worked as both a bartender and a waiter while doing his best to get any role in any movie. Things didn’t seem bright at the time, but he never gave up on his dream of reaching to Hollywood, the Mecca of film production. “I knew that if I didn’t, I’d regret it – if I didn’t at least try,” he said of his pursue of an acting career.

The number of auditions he went on led him nowhere as he couldn’t get a job. He was having no contacts and no agent, and according to him, things were terrifying at times.
“There were times when I’d run out of money,” he told The Guardian. One night, “I had some beans on the stove. I left them on the stove to simmer and I got locked out of the apartment so they were gone. And that was the last meal for a while.”
However, things started to change for the better for the aspiring actor. In 1977, he made his off-Broadway debut in the film Jailbait Babysitter. During the ’80s, he appeared in a number of movies, including Big River (1985), Raising Arizona (1987), and Antony and Cleopatra (1987). However, his breakthrough role which turned him into a star practically overnight was that of Dan Conner in the new ABC TV series Roseanne.
Back in the day, Goodman told People how he loved the role. “He’s like a lot of guys I know. In the wintertime they don’t work because construction is sporadic. I don’t want to have to stand for the American workingman, but if this guy’s gonna be one, I’d rather have him be semi-intelligent, not a dumb beast who sucks down beer all day.”
YouTube
He and the cast became very good friends and the on-screen chemistry between them transferred into their personal life as well, and it was probably one of the reasons why the series was a smash-hit and so much loved during the 9 seasons it aired. “We got along right off the bat,” Goodman explained. “We made each other laugh. That’s one of the keys to the characters: They really adore each other.”
Speaking of the fame he experienced, the actor said that he never really dreamed of being famous, all he ever wanted was to act. “I’m apprehensive about fame,” he told People. “I’ve known people whom it bothers a great deal, and I’m kind of a shy person. Lately people are starting to put my face with my name, instead of thinking I’m either somebody they went to high school with or did time with.”

In 1989, Goodman married Anna Beth Hartzog. “I went to this Halloween party, and she walked up to me and said, ‘Hi.’ I couldn’t figure out why anyone that pretty was talking to me,” Goodman told Elle.
They welcomed daughter Molly Evangeline Goodman in 1990 and the family lives in New Orleans, out of the public eye.
Throughout the years, mainly because there were times when he struggled to find a job, Goodman turned to alcohol and that led him to depression. He has also struggled with his weight most of his life. Whenever he was supposed to get on stage, he would experience panic attacks.
“Absolutely terrified, paralyzed. I couldn’t remember my first line,” he explained. “I was just sweating and I was about to say: ‘I’m sorry, folks, I can’t.’ And I opened my mouth and my first line came out and it [the panic] was gone, I don’t know where it came from.”

When he recalls the filming of Rosseane, Goodman says he remembers drinking on set.
“At first it was exciting,” he told Today. “Then it got frightening when I lost my anonymity. I got complacent and ungrateful. And after nine years—eight years, I wanted to leave the show,” he continued. “I handled it like I did everything else, by sittin’ on a bar stool. And that made it worse.”
Youtube/LateNight
Thankfully, with the help and the support of his wife, Goodman has been sober since 2007. He even went to rehab back in the day and managed to get control of his life.
Today, The Big Lebowski‘s star is leading a healthy life. With the help of fitness guru and personal trainer Mackie Shilstone, he lost around 100 lbs and is looking awesome. “This didn’t happen overnight — it’s been an ongoing process,” Shilstone told New York Post. There needs to be strategic planning. This time, he really wanted to do it.”
Goodman is one our favorite actors. He’s talented and versatile, and it doesn’t come as a surprise that his career lasts for so long.
This is the incredible story of a very special man named Michael J. Bowler who became a single father of a boy stuck in the foster system.
“‘I never asked for any of this!’ screams my sobbing eight-year-old foster son to his new therapist when he learns that, despite being on an adoption track with me, he must endure more therapy and more ‘services,’ which he’d been forced to be part of since the age of four,” Bowler recalled the star of his journey towards parenthood.
Instagram/Michael J Bowler
In 2015, he turned to Raise A Child event in Los Angeles in order to see if he could be an adoptive parent. Learning that despite being single he was legally allowed to adopt made Bowler’s heart skip a beat.
The boy he was supposed to welcome into his home was 8-year-old Ronald who moved from one foster home to another after he suffered severe abuse. He ended up in the system even before he turned 5, and his life was already hard even without the constant need to adapt to a number of foster parents.
After the first three hours spent together, Ronald asked for three more. When asked how he felt in the company of his potential adoptive father, the boy answered, “It’s like we’re the same person!” and Bowler felt exactly the same.
Instagram/Michael J Bowler
“Once he moves in, Ronald believes that, since he’s now in an adoptive home, he’ll be free of the constraints of foster care and, more importantly, that the adoption will finalize sooner, rather than later. It takes many weeks and numerous visits by his new team members before Ronald will even speak to them, hence the cry of anguish with which I opened this post,” Bowler continued his story.
Ronald experienced trauma after one of his foster fathers forced him to rewrite mathematical standards for hours, so the boy felt repulsive towards both math and writing.
On top of that, Ronald would hoard all his toys, even those which were broken. Bowler found out that it was a result of yet another trauma. Apparently, a former foster parent would accuse Ronald of lying and would cut up all of his stuffed animals as a punishment.
Instagram/Michael J Bowler
“Ronald is now eleven and his adoption was finalized, at long last, in January. After such a lengthy wait, with numerous roadblocks thrown into our path by his bio mother and a court system that sadly, puts the wants of irresponsible adults above the needs of children, his dream of the past seven years finally comes to fruition,” Bowler wrote.
“He told me when we first met, ‘I’ve wanted to be adopted all the time I’ve been in foster care,’ and, in his excitement, barely sleeps the night before that dream is to become a reality.
“On Adoption Day, I wake him early so we can get ready and make the hour-long drive to the courthouse. He sits up at once, grabbing me in a tight hug, gushing, ‘Today’s the day!’ I know him well enough to notice the look on his face and slight undertone to his voice – he’s been in the system too long to believe in the adoption until it actually occurs. We dress in matching suits and ties and Ronald, like most young boys, complains about his tie being too tight, while also beaming at the reason for wearing it.”
Instagram/Michael J Bowler
At the courtroom, the soon-to-be legal father and son were met by Bowler’s sister and nephew as well as Rich Valenza, founder and CEO of Raise a Child.
“When finally called upstairs, we enter a quiet courtroom with the judge examining paperwork on his desk. He doesn’t acknowledge us, but merely waits for our attorney to speak. This man has been an intimidating force in Ronald’s life since the age of four and has watched my son grow up in his courtroom over the years as he approved Ronald’s move from foster home to foster home. Not once does the judge speak to my son, congratulate him, try to put him at ease after all those terrifying court appearances in the past. As the judge reads out the declaration that Ronald and I are now a family, my son hugs me. I feel choked with emotion and he looks ready to cry with happiness,” Bowler continued.
On the way home Ronald told his dad that it was the happiest day of his life. It was definitely the same for Bowler.

The adoption was celebrated with a huge party attended by everyone who supported Bowler from day one. All of his family and friends were there, including Ronald’s friends from school and some of the foster care workers and social care workers who knew Ronald from the day he entered the system and did all in their power to help him find his forever home.

“As other friends arrive, they play giant Jenga, darts, beanbag toss, and Nerf wars in the backyard. Hearing the laughter and good cheer coupled with smiling happy faces, pulls my heart tight in my chest with happiness. We have food and a huge cake, which he cuts and dispenses to kids and adults alike. He opens presents and notes with amusement how many people have given us photo frames with the word ‘Family’ emblazoned on them. I remind him that today is a celebration of our family and he grins broadly.
Instagram/Michael J Bowler
“We have photos on display from the adoption, alongside a commemorative gift I gave him on Adoption Day: father-son bobbleheads depicting me as Batman and he as Robin (though I told him the “R” on his chest is for Ronald). Written along the base are the words “Family is Forever.” The artist custom-made these bobbleheads so the faces look exactly like ours and they will remain a fun reminder of the day we became an official family, even though he was my son from the moment he walked through my door and has never been treated as anything less.”

As the party was over, sweet Ronald told his dad that it was his second best day ever. Those words meant the world to the new father who embarked the adventure of parenthood.
No matter how fast societies develop, it looks like it will take quite some time until we learn to accept those that are in any way different than us. As soon as we realize that being different isn’t something bad, but on the contrary, something unique and special, this world would become a much better place for those that now feel like they don’t belong there.
Meet Adhara Pérez Sánchez, a 9-year-old girl from Mexico City who has a higher IQ than that of Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking.
adhara.maite.perez.sanchez / Instagram
Adhara has always been quite different and not understood by those around her. Luckily, that didn’t include her parents who realized that their girl is somewhat special.
From very early age, Adhara was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, which is a developmental disorder included on the autism spectrum. As a result, she had a hard time fitting in and was often bullied by her friends. Her mom once witnessed how some of her classmates locked her inside a play house and started calling her “weirdo” and “oddball.” This broke her heart. She knew she needed to do something in order to protect her daughter. After all the teachers accused Adhara of not being interested in the lessons and with everything that was going on with the kids at school, the most logical thing to do was pull Adhara out of the school and home-school her.
adhara.maite.perez.sanchez / Instagram
Being given the opportunity to spend a lot of time around their daughter, Adhara’s parents realized she was overly intelligent for someone her age.
One thing led to another, and soon, experts realized the same thing. At the age of 5, this sweet girl finished elementary school, and at the age of 6, she already graduated from high school. Currently, she’s attending Universidad CNCI in Mexico where she pursues two degrees, one in industrial engineering in mathematics and one in systems engineering.
Her dream is to attend the University of Arizona and become part of NASA, thus visit the space.
Currently, she’s studying English in order to be able to study in the States.

Adhara was featured in Forbes México’s 100 Most Powerful Women.
Currently, this bright little girl who was considered odd and unfriendly in the past is working on developing a special bracelet that would read emotions and would help autistic kids who don’t speak to be able to communicate. It would also prevent seizures and other outbursts.

For Adhara to thrive and for her life to change drastically, it only took someone to see beyond her autism and accept her for who she is.
We are sure this special girl would achieve everything she puts her mind to.
