She Knew Her Job Was Over

By Angel on May 28, 2013 / 2,823 views

Casey wasn't the most popular dog in her owner Carol Baird's neighborhood of Dalton, Ga. A huge, burly Alaskan malamute, she had a heart of gold but a nose for trouble. She'd slip out the Baird family's back door and trot down the street without a care. Most people gave her a wide berth. That was hardly surprising. From a distance, Casey looked a lot like a wolf. She behaved like one too, or at least had an...

Walking Into Heaven

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 28, 2013 / 5,650 views

I love sunrises. I always have ever since I was a little boy. There is something so wonderful about walking outside at the break of dawn and seeing that glorious light drive out the darkness. That is why last Winter during the darkest part of the year, I bought a calendar full of sunrise pictures. I wanted to be able to wake up in the morning and gaze at that lovely light, even if it was still dark outside. When...

My Most Inspiring Business Moment...

By Stephanie Adams-Nicolai on May 26, 2013 / 7,334 views

My most inspiring business moment... Has nothing to do with business. My most inspiring business moment has been waking up to see my toddler son sleeping peacefully and knowing that all the businesses my husband and I own are spiritually motivated by our love for him. The first year my husband and I were married, he endured a near fatal accident when I was pregnant. It didn't help that I too suffered from an...

Today I Left Money At The Pump

By Chris on May 24, 2013 / 2,236 views

Before I left to get gas today, I wrote a little note on a post-it and stuck it to a $10 bill I had in my wallet. I folded it up and placed it inside the gas pump for the next random customer to find. I didn't stick around to watch, I just left with a smile on my face. If you are reading this, your mission is to keep it going! Leave a note and whatever you can afford, $1, $5, $10, or even $20!! Make sure to...

Dream Trip To Italy

By Kate on May 21, 2013 / 7,693 views

So my mom and I have been working the same waitress job for 5-6 years now. She had been waitressing years before, but this is recently. Anyway, about… 15 minutes ago this guy she waited on left and told her to take care. Just that. Prior to this she had talked to him about Italy. Her people are from Florence, this and that, and she said she's never been. She's got 8 years of art education and she's working a...

New Social Network Inspires Users To Get Happy

By Jenna Watson on May 20, 2013 / 2,546 views

Why is it that bad news is so unavoidable? While the occasional sad story can be inspiring, unhappy news is everywhere, and it's nearly impossible to filter it out. Until now... Spiritual Teacher, Lisa Eve realized that the world was in need of a giant pick-me-up, and she wasn't satisfied with any of the options available. This simple fact inspired her to create The Happy Channel, the world's first social network...

Do What You Can

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 20, 2013 / 9,103 views

I was in a rush to get my power bill payment in the mail today. I pulled my car into the post office parking lot, hopped out, and started quickly walking towards the entrance. Then I saw something green on the sidewalk. I looked down and saw a hummingbird laying on the concrete with her wings spread out. She was breathing slowly in and out but not moving otherwise. I squatted down to take a closer look. She appeared...

Never Judge Anyone..... Because U Never Know How Their Life Is & What They're Going Through"

By KOKOB G. on May 14, 2013 / 5,270 views

A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes & went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy's father pacing in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him, the dad yelled: "Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have any sense of responsibility?" The doctor...

Tears

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 13, 2013 / 7,980 views

It had been a rough week. A steady stream of bad news had battered my spirits and stressed my soul. Everything seemed to be going wrong at once. My fearful, worried mind wouldn't rest and my tired feet kept pacing through my house carrying my body along with them. "If only I could clear my head", I thought to myself. "If only I could calm my heart" I had turned the radio on earlier but its music had failed to...

Hello From Heaven

By Joseph J. Mazzella on May 08, 2013 / 8,104 views

I saw my first butterfly of the Spring today. I was carrying some groceries into my house when suddenly the little lady flew right down in front of my face. She stayed there for a long time gently floating on the invisible breeze. She was so beautiful that my eyes filled with tears and my heart beat with love. Then she departed to dine on some delicious dandelions growing in the meadow behind my house. After she...

A Wet Face And A Warm Heart

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 29, 2013 / 8,154 views

I woke up with a wet face again this morning. Five minutes before my alarm clock was set to go off my little dog, Snoopy jumped on my bed and licked my face until my eyes popped open. I was startled by the slurpy wake up call but didn't have the heart to scold her. Even though my face was wet, my heart was warm with the knowledge that I was loved. There is no better feeling than being loved. Snoopy's morning...

A Simple Dog Walk

By Chris on April 26, 2013 / 10,038 views

It was a beautiful, sunny day so I decided to take my dog, Tater, out for a nice walk. It finally feels like spring now as the sun shines down onto my face and the grass is growing tall and green. Tater gets so excited when I grab her leash as she waits by the door knowing she's going outside to play. As we walked down the street, all I could think about was how Tater reminded me of my childhood. She is so...

The Hand Of God

By Joseph J. Mazzella on April 23, 2013 / 9,367 views

I think that most of us go through our days here with our eyes half-closed because we so seldom see the Hand of God working in our lives. It happens in countless ways every single day. Let me give you an example. Two years ago several of the Hawaiian shirts that I love to wear had become worn and threadbare. I really wanted some new ones so I saved any extra money I had for several weeks to pay for them. Finally, I...

A Little Bit Of Heaven

Luci and I were greeted warmly by the Activities Director of the Alzheimer's Facility we visited yesterday! Luci was excited and ready to meet and say 'hello' to every resident who wanted to meet her! She leaned on several of the men's legs as they petted her. Don't know who enjoyed all of the interaction, the residents or Luci! One lady asked me, "Pleazzze, let me keep her?" "I would take good care of...
