This past week my 10-year-old granddaughter and I have given to a man standing on the road holding a sign that says “hungry”. She handed him the 5 bucks. We then talked about hunger and how terrible it would be to be hungry and have no food or money to buy food. Then we went…
I’m so proud of my kids! They have done things from serve food at a local church, to help build community gardens, to educating kids about the importance of eating healthy and how to grow your own garden, to raising awareness and money for breast cancer, to putting together “necessity bags” for the homeless as…
My daughter Brianna is 11 years old and just graduated from elementary school. She’s four years younger than her brother Joseph but always has been like a “big sister” to him because of his Autism. She had an assignment at school to write about something she would change in the world to make it a…
The day of your passing, I was sitting in MedExpress waiting for my X-rays to be put on a disc before I went to work at Costco in Winchester. There was an older couple sitting in the waiting area with me. The wife went to the check-in window and the staff gave her a hard time…

I want to share something positive that happened today that confirms my belief in humanity due to the unselfish act of a total stranger. There seems to be so much negativity in this world, but there are good people out there and sometimes we are made aware of them when we least expect it. My…
I lost control of a vehicle on an icy road coming home from a thanksgiving weekend at my brother’s family’s house.
When I had just had my first daughter we were doing it a little tough and my partner at the time played a lot of online computer games. He was in a “clan” and had met a few people from around Australia. One of them was an IT guy and had a pretty good wage…
This is the most incredible thing someone has done for me! I am always posting about kindness and helping others. I try to teach my son and we do things often to help him understand the importance of helping others.
I know a young lady in year 10 this year who wasn’t planning on going to the year 10 debutante ball. Instead, she was focused on her year 12 graduation as her parents were paying for it and she would not have to stress. At the start of this year, she noticed a friend of…
