"My son was embarrassed to post his finished quilt because he's a man, be gentle with criticism, this quilt is simple but he wants to be a professional one day."
"This is Barnie. For nearly six years, he lived behind the bars of a shelter. No one chose him. Too big, too old, too “plain,” some said. But Barnie never lost hope. And he never let go of his stuffed monkey, his beloved plush toy that had been patched up by volunteers more times than anyone could count. It wasn’t just a toy—it was his comfort, his friend, the symbol of the home he dreamed of.
Years went by. Puppies were adopted, younger dogs found families. Barnie stayed. Until one day, someone really saw him—saw the kindness in his tired eyes—and decided to take a chance.
Now Barnie is home. Still carrying his toy, but no longer as a source of comfort. He holds it with pride now. As if to say, “I told you someone would love me someday.”"
"This is Caroline. She moved overseas with all her animals.She never wrote on Facebook "I'm giving up my cats and dogs because I'm moving"or I'm having a baby or I've had the animal a year, two years or more and now I suddenly don't have time for it or can't afford to feed it.So, when you get an animal, remember that it’s a fragile creature, part of the family and must follow you everywhere you go, otherwise don’t get one!!Be like Caroline"
"This Mom Planted 2 Million Trees To Fulfill Her Son’s Dying Wish. Yi Jiefang's only son died in a traffic accident in Japan. After a tragic loss, Yi, 67, honored her son's wish by planting a forest in his homeland."
"Jerome Horwitz, famous for playing CURLY in "THE THREE STOOGES", was known to all as a protector of dogs. Curly's contract with Columbia Pictures included a clause that allowed his dogs to accompany him on the studio lot. Columbia limited it to no more than two dogs at a time, this due to the puppies' unplanned on-camera appearances from time to time. You can still see those surprise dog on set invasions in the first few short films. Typically surrounded by various dogs, Curly was known to come home with a stray dog and foster it until he could find it a permanent home. When the Stooges were out on the road, Curly took it upon himself to find a new home for at least one stray dog in every town they visited. Curly is estimated to have saved and rescued more than 5,000 dogs in his lifetime. This makes him a man ahead of his time, with a very admirable concern for man's best friend. Dogs are family"
"David Gilmour, the legend behind Comfortably Numb, once sold his £3 million London mansion and donated every penny to a homeless charity called Crisis? He literally said, "I don't need all this luxury while others are struggling for a roof over their heads."
No media circus, no rockstar ego—just pure generosity. He cashed out and quietly helped change lives.
So next time you hear one of his epic solos, remember: the guy isn’t just a guitar legend—he’s also a hero offstage.
Cheers, Dave. You’re the real MVP"
"I had adopted her but she refused to come away with me. It was weird because dogs can't wait to leave the kennel. She was crying and stubbing her paws. I should have dragged her. But when I looked down I understood the reason and I had to make a CHOICE "When the time came to take her home she was just out of that cage, from that moment a new world awaited her, a wonderful life and a lot of love. Any another dog would have run into the embraces of her rescuers. But she did not. She stood still, sticking to all fours and refused to come out of the cage. In a corner a small Chihuahua Taco looked at her in fear. She understood that she was about to lose her her best friend. And in that moment a small miracle happened. The couple saw the whole scene and decided to adopt them both. They did the documents also for the chihuahua and all 4 went out the door of the shelter. was taken in the car, before leaving. Personally I would like to wish these two dogs a happy life full of love !. But above all so much happiness also to these two wonderful people"
"“When you see something like this, don't be afraid, don't call the firefighters or the police, don't move and don't k**l them, even if they’re a nuisance. These are just bees traveling and stopping for just 24 hours. Don't disturb them and avoid getting close to them, they won't hurt you. If you want to help, put a flat plate or tray with some sugar water. Bees will eat, gain energy and fly away. We all need to protect migratory bees, they are our survival insurance. Without bees, there will be no humans on earth."
"A man rescued an injured fawn, cared for her, and healed her leg. She later reunited with her mother and now visits his backyard with her family.He witnessed a mother give birth to two baby deer in his backyard. Unfortunately, one fawn had an injured leg and was left behind as the mother escaped into the forest with her other newborn. Knowing it could not survive on its own, he took the fawn home to treat its wound until it healed then to release it back to the wild. He made a leg brace from a cereal box and fed her every four hours while his dogs licked her to make her feel welcome. When the fawn was fully healed, he tried to release her several times to the wild but she followed him back. Until one day, the mother showed up and the fawn finally joined her family. Once in a while, he still sees the fawn and her family come back into his backyard"
”Went for a quick bite to eat today, and while standing in line, I was asked by a large group of bikers to cut in front of them. I declined, but they insisted. As I made my way past them they all thanked me and shook my hand, each one introducing themselves. When I got to the front, they asked if they could pray for me. Said a quick prayer for me and I did the same for them. They then tried to buy my lunch which I politely refused. Get to the counter to pay and the owner told me it was on the house. So I dumped all the cash I had in the tip jar. Was a nice change of pace to feel appreciated and respected instead of feared or hated. Thanks for making my day!!! ”

"Did you know, those little bees you see in the evening sitting on flowers are old bees.Old & sick bees don't return to the hive at the end of their day.They spend the night on flowers, and if they have the chance to see another sunrise, they resume their activity by bringing pollen or nectar to the colony.They do this sensing that the end is near.No bee waits to die in the hive so as not to burden the others.So, next time you see an old little bee sat upon a flower as the night closes in......thank the little bee for her life long service."
