Thanks, Frank!

By David J Brunson on April 01, 2019 / 3,360 views

My wife sent me this picture this morning. She was in Johnston, SC and ran over something in the road and got an immediate flat tire. She called Triple AAA and me, but before either of us got there, this nice gentleman stopped and had it changed in less than 20 min. She was very relieved and thankful, and so was I. Want to give a shout out to this man who took the time out and...

Store Angel

By Terri Rimmer on March 31, 2019 / 4,923 views

I wrecked my car this week and now it's at the collision shop. They're determining whether it's totaled or not. I was waiting a long time on a ride today and there was this red-faced homeless woman sitting outside the store with two bags, so I started talking to her. I told her my name. She had a really sad, tragic story which made me very humbled and grateful for what I had....

Spreading Love For Good Dogs

By Ariel on March 31, 2019 / 3,509 views

This just recently happened to me. A bit of backstory that's important: my family has always been poor, but we are a very close knit family, who loves our animals above any possessions. Now this January, things went south for our family, taking us from just poor, to homeless and having lost everything everything except for our animals. It was a cold winter in ND and we had no choice but to move south, and...

Running Home

By Joseph J. Mazzella on March 29, 2019 / 3,625 views

My daughter and her little dog Lexie have a special bond. I can still remember the day we rescued her from the animal shelter. Lexie squirmed in my arms when I held her but the second I handed this eight pound pup to my daughter she settled down and snuggled in. My daughter cried tears of joy holding her on the way home and Lexie happily licked them away. Since then she and my daughter have been inseparable....

Go Slowly

By Joseph J. Mazzella on March 25, 2019 / 4,551 views

I tend to go slowly when I drive in the mountains of my home. I am never in much of a hurry. The forest scenery is beautiful no matter what the season. And it is easier to miss the potholes which spring up like dandelions this time of the year. This morning I was driving even slower than usual because an early March snow had turned the roads slick and slippery. Going up a mountain road I had slowed down to...

Judge Not, Lest Ye Be Dead Wrong!

By Rick on March 18, 2019 / 6,450 views

My wife and I parked at a trailhead the same time as a young man with a distorted gate. He was covered in tattoos. I assumed he was on drugs, so we tried to distance ourselves from him. But he struggled hard to catch up and wanted to talk some. We slowed down. He said he was recovering from a bad time in his life. And yes, we found he did lots of drugs! We politely left him in the dust, heading up river. An...

The Brave Heart!

By Anjali Mohapatra on March 18, 2019 / 6,055 views

As the train picked up it's speed, the passengers slowly settled down on their seats. I reserved the lower berth, so that I could enjoy the beauty of out side from the moving train. I don't know why I always preferred to get the window seat. An elderly lady occupied the front seat of mine. I looked at her. She must be in her eighties, I guessed. At one point, we met our eyes. She smiled at me. With...

Self Help

By Nicholas MacIneskar on March 18, 2019 / 4,632 views

OK, here's the deal. I've just been run over by a car – been in an accident. Except they say you can't use the word 'accident' because it implies blame. But what the hell, I have been in an accident and, oh boy, am I blaming someone. I didn't get a good look, of course. It happened too quickly. A step off the sidewalk, a rush of wind, something blue and metallic coming...

Thanks Kai

By Joseph J. Mazzella on March 18, 2019 / 4,163 views

The first time I saw Kai she was sitting in my front yard, hugging my dog, Harley. She and her husband Sean had just moved into a tiny home down the hill from us. I think she was drawn to Harley's friendly personality just as he was drawn to hers. From the second I talked to her I knew Kai would be a cherished friend. Her smile and good cheer made me feel better just being around her. Her high voice was...

I work at bar in the evenings, and I'm also fluent in sign language. Tonight a deaf man sat alone in my section, so I chatted with him in sign. The table next to him noticed and asked me how long I've been signing, etc. then I found this on their table. I will be paying this...

Angels Came To My Rescue

By Bruce Van Natta on March 14, 2019 / 4,387 views

My name is Bruce Van Natta, and I love to work on trucks. I'm a self-employed diesel mechanic; also a Christian family man living out my power truck dreams and providing for my wife and four children. I never gave a second thought to the danger of working on engines that weigh thousands of pounds, until November 16, 2006. I was working on a Peterbilt logging truck about an hour from...

A Wagon Will Do

By Rick on March 12, 2019 / 4,338 views

For weeks I worked repairing the outside of a run down home and kept noticing the same man riding an old bike pulling a make shift cart, often filled with cans and junk. Eventually his bike broke, and for days I saw him struggling to walk the bike and loaded cart up and down the road. I asked if I could help by fixing his bike (it was beyond repair). I noticed he had some sort...

At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach...

Begin Again

Ring! Ring! Ring! It was early in the morning and I knew who was calling as I dejectedly reached for the telephone. I was a new substitute teacher struggling to earn enough to support my young family. Each morning I waited for a call that would take me to a different classroom that day. The last three of them had all been determined to test the teacher and see just how much bad behavior they could get away...
