Some moments that may make you feel a tad bit better:

1. The parents who made their son's wheelchair into the best Halloween costume ever


13. And this brave kid who stood up against hate


18. The young girl who loves her dog unconditionally


20. The bros who worked together to save a cat


26. And every single time anything like this happened.

Those were darling reminders that life IS good. That last one with child and cat.... the cat looks like my "George". He has a pearly white underbelly of fur.

I especially like the two cat ones.

I had a cat for about four years who simply showed up in my front yard one day, starving and flea-infested. She was a wonderful cat.

My son has a cat he found in a drainage ditch several years ago. Another wonderful cat.

Some people have such imaginations. That is so clever and so cute.

When I get bummed out about the human condition, I go to youtube and load up on "The Best of YouTube." I put 'em on my iPod and laugh my head off. Humans are amazingly creative.

I'm generally down on the human race, but on occasion it does surprise me.

Thanks for the smiles, Are_grits_groceries.

I went and looked at them all. So very beautiful. It's easy to forget how astonishingly awesome humans can be sometimes.

Many thanks for this.
