Post something happy, positive, or uplifting!

I'll start:

AOL.com Article - Woman dances on her way to get breast cancer surgery

There is a truth that people who maintain a positive, healthy attitude towards illness will progress in their recovery far better than those who have a negative attitude. It is most likely that our thoughts influence our actions of course, so if we are positive about recovery, we will eat healthily, exercise, not smoke, and so that of course will help the body back to health. Whereas a person with a negative attitude might say 'what the heck, I have cancer anyway' and will adopt an unhealthy lifestyle that will cause more health problems. Anyway, nice move on her part. She won't be dancing for a while after surgery, so best get it done before.

This one always struck a chord for me. Maybe it's because they are serving food to the poor (and other people, too) that I would love to eat, too.

You don't say.

That tail! Such a happy dog tail wag. And when he sat down in that recliner she was talking to him boy. Where did you go? Don't you ever do that to me again.

Thanks for joining in, Saphire I know, that dog video! She was just hollerin' up a storm! "Daddy, where've you been? Daddy, hold me! Daddy, don't put me down! Daddy, I missed you!" SO precious. Anyone who says animals can't experience emotion... pish.

 

[SaphireOwl]

Really! A dog's tail wag shows their emotions start from head and travel all the way to tookus.
Animals experience emotions. And they think and communicate.
I feel sorry for people who think animals are nothing but empty shells here for their amusement. Or abuse.

Have you ever heard of this organization? Playing For Change

My hubby showed me one of their YouTube videos ("Stand By Me") last night, and I was fighting back tears the whole time.

If you need a pick-me-up, check it out!

So many pics and not a single one of the dog carrying the kitten in his mouth.

That is what Wheatley would do. It was his kitten and he raised it like his pup.

It was a bit frightening when a cat fight broke out in the back yard after the kitten was grown. Wheatly ran to help his kin. He did not slow down for the doggie door, it sounded like the door was shattered.

Rock on, Officer Benitez! And he says anyone would have done the same, but I have to disagree. He went above and beyond.
