Early on September 5, 1986, Pan Am Flight 73 sat on the tarmac in Karachi when four armed hijackers stormed aboard, and in the panic twenty-two-year-old lead flight attendant Neerja Bhanot stayed calm, slipping into the c**kpit to quietly punch in the hijack code so the pilots could escape through the overhead hatch before the plane took off; over the next seventeen hours she moved among terrified passengers, gathering American passports and hiding them under seats, in chutes, and even flushing a few down the lavatory to keep her fellow travelers safe, and when violence erupted she opened an emergency exit, guided people to freedom, and used her own body to shield three children from gunfire—her selfless bravery cost her life but saved more than 350 people, and at just twenty-two she left behind a legacy of fearless compassion that still inspires us today.

When Nathaniel Bunn spotted a flipped car in Pittsburgh he didn’t turn away but ran straight toward it and saw a terrified woman trapped upside down inside so he sat by her side when no one else could open the door and gently held her hand while reassuring her that help was coming even though she didn’t say a word and only squeezed his hand for comfort. He stayed with her through what felt like an eternity, watching others film instead of helping and feeling sad that so many chose to record rather than act. He didn’t leave until the paramedics arrived and later called the hospital to check on her, learning she wasn’t in critical condition even though he didn’t even know her name. He hopes she’s recovering well and that everyone who hears this story remembers that if you see someone in need, you should reach out and help instead of looking the other way.

Professor Sydney Engelberg was in the middle of a calm university lecture when the sudden cry of a baby broke the silence. The child sat in his young mother’s arms at the back of the room, and she stood up, red-faced, to hurry out and avoid disturbing everyone. Instead, Engelberg paused his talk, walked over without a word, and gently took the baby into his arms. Then he returned to the front and went right back to teaching as if nothing had changed, cradling the child against his chest while he spoke. The students watched in awe as he never missed a beat or showed any irritation. This wasn’t a one-time kindness—Engelberg has always welcomed student-mothers, encouraging them to bring their little ones, to breastfeed whenever needed, and to feel fully part of his classes. He often reminds everyone that no mom should have to choose between her child and her education, because teaching a mother teaches a whole community. A photo of that moment spread worldwide, a simple reminder that true learning includes compassion.

Michael J. Fox was signing autographs at New York Comic Con in 2018 when a fan brought a worn Back to the Future poster that once belonged to her late father. She told him how her dad had shared that movie with her every year—even through his long illness—and asked if he could write more than just his name. Fox paused, gently traced the creases, and then wrote, “To a father who made time travel real by sharing these moments with his daughter. With love, Michael J. Fox.” The woman held the poster, tears in her eyes, as he squeezed her hand. Later he said that moments like these remind him it’s not just about the movies—it’s about the memories and connections they create. Credit to the respective owner.

An elderly woman tied her mule to the hitching post and brushed dust from her clothes when a young gunslinger swaggered out of the saloon with a pistol in one hand and a whiskey bottle in the other, laughed at her, and asked if she’d ever danced; when she admitted she hadn’t, he fired at her feet until she was hopping around, everyone laughing, and then holstered his gun and turned to go back inside, only for the woman to calmly pull out a double-barreled shotgun, c**k both hammers so the clicks rang through the desert air, and quietly ask if he’d ever kissed a mule’s behind—in that stunned silence he swallowed and said no, but that he’d always wanted to; and from that day we learned never to be arrogant, never to waste ammunition, that whiskey makes you think you’re smarter than you are, always know who holds the real power, and don’t mess with old women—they didn’t get old by being fools.

When my youngest daughter first moved in with us at age five, Halloween filled her and her nine-year-old sister with fear whenever I mentioned it, and I eventually learned why: they had once been given candy only to have an adult sn**ch it back, eat it in front of them, and force them to chew the empty wrappers while they cried. Determined to give them a safe first Halloween in our home, I counted every piece of candy they brought back from trick-or-treating into labeled bags, and each night for weeks I sat with them as they marked off every bite until they finally felt able to relax. That was autumn 2014, and even now each October those old memories can still surface—until last night, when I caught my daughter rummaging in the pantry and she shyly handed me a paper-wrapped bag of her Halloween treats with a third-grade scrawl that said, “Mom, I want you to taste my candy so you know how much I love you.” In that moment I saw how far she has come.

My youngest daughter is fourteen and this summer she hunted down her second summer job all by herself she chose where she wanted to work, handed in her resume, called twice to follow up, then stopped by in person to check if anyone had looked at it and they invited her to interview on the spot and offered her the position. Now she covers every shift they need, volunteers on the bulletin board to trade days off for coworkers, washes dishes and cleans bathrooms, takes out the trash and mops floors, serves customers and handles the cash register, and even makes specialty coffees and smoothies. It’s hardly glamorous but she saves seventy percent of her earnings for medical school and uses the rest for a computer and time with friends. She’s fully committed, putting in the effort, and she amazes me every day...

I spent several visits at the local shelter, wandering past row after row of cages filled with hopeful dogs and cats, but nothing felt quite right until I glanced into the corner one day and saw him—an odd-looking kitten with striped fur that didn’t match any template, markings that seemed almost accidental, and eyes that shone with a quiet curiosity. He wasn’t the perfect fluffy ball every newcomer dreamed of; in fact, his pattern was strange and his gaze just a little off. Still, something about him pulled at me, and when I sat quietly by his cage he hesitated at first but then edged closer and gently nudged my hand. That soft nuzzle told me everything: he belonged with me. I signed the papers without a second thought, cradled him in my arms as the shelter staff smiled, and brought him home. Now, every time he curls up beside me and purrs, I’m reminded that real beauty isn’t in perfect markings but in the heart that waits patiently for someone to see it. ..

When we were leaving the hospital, the doctor asked if we had any pets and I told her we had both cats and a blue-nose pitbull. The moment I said “pitbull” she warned me to keep our dog away from the baby, which stung, but I didn’t argue. Now our pitbull and baby boy are inseparable—proving that despite their bad reputation, pits can be the sweetest, most loving companions.

Rest in peace to our sweet Siamese friend, born September 3, 2014 passed July 26, 2025. Only last Friday we learned he’d been hiding a serious heart condition that led to fluid building up in his lungs. He must have had it for years he’d been tired all the time and gaining weight despite eating very little.

Friday afternoon started out normal, but by 1 PM he was struggling to breathe. We rushed him back to the vet, and the X-ray confirmed lung edema and heart disease. They gave him injections, but his breathing only got worse.

Through it all, he clung to me. Whenever I tried to rest, he’d leap onto the bed and gently paw my fingers—like he was begging me not to leave him alone. He trembled in the dark, so I kept the lights on to soothe him.

A couple hours before he slipped away, that giant tarantula we’d seen by his water bowl last week crawled back into sight. This time I caught it, and it felt like a final sign that his journey was ending.

It all happened so suddenly. If only we’d known about his heart sooner, maybe we’d still have him with us today. Thank you for the love and support you’ve shown our brave little Siamese...

Gone too soon, but forever in our hearts. 🌈💔😿

This is my friend’s 17-year-old nephew, Tanner. Yesterday, he was out enjoying the afternoon at Scissortail Park with his mom and younger siblings when something caught his eye—a person struggling in the water. His mom said he paused for just a second, looked again, and before she could ask what was happening, Tanner was sprinting toward the pond. He didn’t yell, he didn’t hesitate—he just moved. What he saw was a toddler drowning. And without thinking twice, Tanner jumped in and saved a 2-year-old’s life. In the process, he suffered a head injury that required staples, but he didn’t complain. The police, fire department, and medics all arrived, and the child’s mother broke down crying, overwhelmed with gratitude. Tanner didn’t do it for praise. He’s the kind of kid who’s kind, quiet, and deeply humble. He still doesn’t fully realize how his quick instincts and brave heart saved an entire family from heartbreak. He just knew someone needed help—and he became the help. Heroes don’t always wear uniforms. Sometimes they’re 17, wearing sneakers, out at the park with their mom. And they change someone’s world forever.

A 17-year-old jumped in without thinking twice—and saved a 2-year-old from drowning.
This world needs more Tanners ...❤️‍🩹

Today my daughter changed her profile picture. Not long after, I got a message from someone asking, “I didn’t know she was dating a black boy, did you?” I didn’t respond right away. In fact, I sat with that question all day, thinking about how I felt—not just as a parent, but as a person. And no, I didn’t send a reply back to that message. But here’s the answer I would give, to anyone else who “might not know.” Yes, I know. I’ve known. But the color of his skin isn’t what matters to me. What matters is the way he treats my daughter. What I see is a young man who walks into my house and calls me Ma’am. He talks to me about sports, he tells me goodbye before he leaves, and he treats me with nothing but respect. That counts for a lot more than skin color ever will. I see my daughter dating someone who treats her well. He takes her to games, to dinner, on real dates—not to clubs or house parties. I see her going to church with him, every single Sunday. He’s in the band there, and she sits with his family. I haven’t seen another boy make that kind of effort. He doesn’t lie to her, curse at her, make her cry, or raise a hand to her. And I’d never, ever trade that kind of love and respect just to say she’s dating someone of the same race. So if you’re wondering how I feel about it? I feel thankful. Thankful that my daughter is loved, respected, and cared for. That’s more than I ever had growing up. And I’m glad she has it now.

Some people still see color first.
I see respect. I see love. I see my daughter being treated the way every parent hopes their child will be...❤️
