If you know of someone who is contemplating suicide, if you even suspect they are, there is something you can do.  o Ask directly if your friend is thinking about suicide. o Be willing to listen . Allow their expressions of feelings, and accept those feelings. o Be non-judgmental. Don't debate whether suicide is right or wrong, or whether feelings are good or bad. Don't lecture on the value of life. Focus on being present with their feelings. o Get involved. Become available. Show interest and support. o Check in with your friend regularly. Schedule times to talk for the next week when you will both be available, to see how they are doing. o Don't act shocked. This will put distance between you. Be patient with yourself and the situation o Don't be sworn to secrecy. Seek support. o Offer hope that alternatives are available but do not offer glib reassurance. o Take action. Remove means, such as guns or stockpiled pills o Get help fro...

Death.  No matter what shape or form it takes it triggers intense emotions.  Even if we barely knew the person or never met the person we each feel something when we are told of their passing.    And the deep pain of sorrow we feel when an animal passes, be it our pets or an animal in the wild,  is something we all share. With some it's a deep sense of loss.  With others it is a wake up call.    Bottom line, with each passing, be it human or a beloved pet, Death reminds us how precious and how very short our time on this earth really is.  It touches us down to the very depths of our inner core.  Consciously or unconsciously. Many often wonder if there was more that could have been done to prevent the death of another.  Especially, and most in particularly, when it comes to suicide.    Sadly, suicide is still considered taboo.  It is a subject everyone knows about, but very rarely discusses o...

When I hear of things like this it actually renews my hope for the future of mankind! *** Robertson began making the daily trek to the factory where he molds parts after his car stopped working ten years ago and bus service was cut back. He's had perfect attendance for more than 12 years. "I set our attendance standard by this man," said Todd Wilson, plant manager at Schain Mold & Engineering. "I say, if this man can get here, walking all those miles through snow and rain, well I'll tell you, I have people in Pontiac 10 minutes away and they say they can't get here — bull!"

Gather yourselves together.   Your tribes, your families, your friends and those of like mind.  Gather yourselves together and be as one.   Stop struggling to reach the masses.  Step back and embrace those you are already reaching and those you've already reached.  Do not concern yourselves with those that have not been touched by your light.  Do not chase after those that do not appreciate what you are offering.     If it is meant to be, those that have not already found you, will most certainly find you .   Stop believing in the adage "the squeaky wheel always gets the oil ."     The oil is used to silence the squeak, but is not always taken seriously.  And the results seldom yield lasting results. Many of you  have now discovered,  it is the quiet and unassuming, the softest of voices,  that brings about the long lasting results.   As you were living as the squeaky wheel ,  you slo...

Another Act of Random Kindness ... This is the kind of dash cam video we usually see – police chases and general mayhem which makes this dash cam video remarkable and unforgettable.  Saturday afternoon, Rosenberg Police Sergeant Ariel Soltura was on patrol, driving through an apartment complex parking lot when he saw a young man. He slowed down. “And I saw he was throwing up a football and I could tell that was actually playing by himself - he wasn't just waiting for more kids to arrive,” he said. Soltura could have continued driving but instead, he stopped. “I literally got out of the car - I did like this which is the universal sign of throw me the football and at that time you just saw his face just lit up and he was ready to play,” Soltura said. And so they did. Two men as Soltura says – playing football on a perfect day. The Rosenberg Police Department posted it on Facebook. Hours later, it had a about a quarter million likes.  Truth be told Soltura says, it's part of...

This is a wonderful story that should be passed around as much as possible.   SheKnows Home & Living Editor Kelli Uhrich shares her moving experience with a stranger who offered her kindness. Please share and cross post on all your Social Networks!   *~*~*~*~* Dear Stranger, Today we stood next to one another in line at the Phoenix Sky Harbor airport, waiting to move through the security checkpoint. You probably don't remember me, but I will never forget you. I was the woman with the frazzled hair, the sweat-dripping brow and the large plastic bag — the latter of which was clearly unplanned. I was the woman in the back of the line who thought she had adequately prepared for her business trip but quickly discovered she hadn't. You, on the other hand, were composed, collected and early  for your flight. You owed me nothing. You didn't have to help me, but you did — and I don't know how else to say  thank-you . You see, this all began l...

An Afghan kitten strayed into the life of a soldier. When they locked eyes on each other, he knew he had to help bring her home to America. “Somewhere in the middle of in all this little Kitty came up to me one day. She was not like the other strays. It was as though she was trying to say something. Not giving it much thought I reached down and picked her up. I took her to my room and feed her some of the cat food I’d ask for months ago. We visited for at least 2 hours,” the soldier wrote. He then sought help from Nowzad, a charity that helps rescue animals in the Afghanistan area. “On Ms Kitty’s last visit, I entertained her for over 3 hours. She convinced me she was ready to go and off she went. When she showed up the next mourning I knew it was meant to be. Everyone in my platoon knows of Ms Kitty… She gave companionship no human could understand and now I want to take her home to America.” Read more by clicking HERE OR just copy & paste this URL...
