Bluewolf 7,137 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Is Life getting you down??? Do you wonder when all the madness will end?? Tired of reading all the bad news and heartbreak on social media everyday??? The injustices, The Crime, The Worldwide Conflicts??? The Cruelty, The Environmental Issues??? Wonder why you even bother getting out of bed someday's???? Is there any hope for any of us anymore??? Well... There are still people out there around the world digging deep and fighting the tide of adversity.. Sticking up for the weak and defenseless, doing what's right, Sometimes they tread silently doing their good deeds and charity work while others are thrust into the media spotlight, Some acts are heroic but they don't run around wearing capes... People putting others first with little or no thought for themselves.... Any stories or tales of Good Deeds, Charity work, Justice being served, Bullies being beat down or any kind of decent acts of kindness or bravery need to be in here big or small... Pets and other animals included I will start with this because I still remember it... The homeless man with nothing sharing the pizza he was given... A lot of good hearted people sometimes find themselves rock bottom but it does not stop them being kind hearted... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beelzebub 2,492 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I saw this video on facebook of a man who saved some 600 kids from Nazi camps and than relocated all of them to new families. He had a diary in which he wrote about all the kids from their past families to the address of their new family. That mans grand children took that diary and arranged a reunion contacting each and every kid he saved, all of them now in their 50s 60s and the man was now in his 90s.

Think I know which clip you're on about. He had no idea who he was sitting around and they ended up surprising him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bluewolf 7,137 Posted January 10, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 10, 2019 I did enjoy this story this week as well... This bloke made a bad mistake thinking he could rob UFC Fighter Polyana Viana and got his arse handed to him on a plate... ”When he saw I saw him, he sat next to me,” Viana recounted. “He asked me the time, I said it, and I saw he wasn’t going to leave. So I already moved to put my cell phone in my waist. And then he said, ‘Give me the phone. Don’t try to react, because I’m armed.’ Then he put his hand over [a gun], but I realized it was too soft.” ”He was really close to me. So I thought, ‘If it’s a gun, he won’t have time to draw it.’ So I stood up. I threw two punches and a kick. He fell, then I caught him in a rear-naked choke. Then I sat him down in the same place we were before and said, ‘Now we’ll wait for the police.’” 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluewolf 7,137 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger The Pilot who along with his very calm and very capable crew used all their skill and experience to guide a plane down on the Hudson back on January 15th 2009 saving everyone from what could have been a terrible disaster.. All 155 of them survived the experience.. Ten years later, these are the things that stay with me: the professionalism of the crew and air traffic controllers, the cooperation of passengers, the bravery of the rescuers and first responders, and the enduring love of my family, and I celebrate them every day. #Flight1549 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
