Good News Anyone?
I don't know about you, but I am so tired of reading or hearing of all the bad news going on in this world. Surely, there is some good news out there in the world! If you've read of something good, inspirational, positive, heartwarming, humans being kind to one another ...anything good, how about sharing it with us all here. Let's flood this world with some good news for a change and keep this thread going with only good news. My good news for this day is about a six-year-old, who spends three days a week getting dialysis treatment at University Hospital in San Antonio. Because of this, Matthew, a triplet, isn't able to join his brothers in their first-grade class every day. You ask, what's so good about that? Well, Matthew's teacher is donating a kidney! Now that is awesome news! How about you? Do you have some good news to share, and it can even be good news you received in your personal life.Ha Peach Purple that is so funny. What a relief to I can imagine
I think it's the small things that add up that we maybe don't pay attention to. Not everything has to be over the top to show us the good in humanity. Often I think we feel that we have to be heroic to make a positive difference in the world. I think we just simply need to be kind.
For example, just today I went into town and people everywhere were just delightful. My son had been up vomiting since very early this morning and I had to go to town to pick up dramamine and other various items. I went to the first shop and after I loaded my car a man walked across the lot and said he'd take my cart for me since he had to go into the store anyway.
I went across town to the next shop and another gentleman insisted I go ahead of him in line because I had fewer items. Then of course the woman who was ahead of both of us was a nitpicker who had a zillion coupons etc. etc. you know the ones lol -
So we began chatting and he told me he makes it a habit to do 3 kind things for people each day because he believes that these things come back. I completely agree of course and these simple acts of kindness after a long night/morning with a very sick child were just the brightness my day needed.
Good news is all around us when we choose to look - and if we don't see it, we need to create it.Congratulations Mike
Here's a link that will make you all feel good.
http://happyplace.someecards.com/evil-b … -giggling/Farmers plant always not because they are an optimist but because if they do not plant, the cost for land preparation will double in the next planting season. So, there is a business side to it why farmers plant all the time. I am a farmer, south of Manila. I guess, having a knack for good news would depend entirely on the person not on anything else.
I recently self published a book, I knew the market was very niche as very few people enjoy reaading research on ancient board games, but I enjoy the work and am part of a group that has weird hobbies, so I figured I could sell enough to make it worthwhile (I was doing the research anyways). Well on Tuesday I donated two copies of the book to a friend who runs a small handmade medieval games company to use as perks for an indiegogo campaign to raise money to get the rights to print a reproduction. On Wednesday she contacted me to let me know that a friend of hers, who had already donated, donated even more in order to get a copy of my book. Well the guy then turned around and asked if her if she could ask me if I offered a distributors discount and said he'd by 20. He also asked me to come to an event he was putting on to do a book signing.... so that's my good news
The sun is shining here too! After weeks of relentless cold and frozen ground,we finally can see the light.
Next week is warming up and and this snow will be history!Great news! I think my first payout took longer.
Last Friday, my oldest son was targeted by a bully at school and he stood up to him and said I don't think so take it somewhere else. The bully kid hit my son in the arm - then immediately felt bad and apologized and they shook hands and everything. My son being a strong individual who makes me proud everyday forgave this other boy who has a bad habit of picking on people - and the bully, for once, had a conscience and did the right thing and promised not to pick on my son anymore. It gave me some hope that not all high school kids are little punks
lol.HP is about nine years old, anniversary in August if I recall correctly.
Yup! Looking at everything on and around the campus, I can't wait to go and really see it. The university has one of the oldest and largest forensic programs as well! I'm not sure if August can come fast enough.
My good news is that it is very refreshing to see a "good news forum post"
