Man Tries to start KKK Rally and Gets Kindness PHOTOBOMBED!!

Tanya’s Comment: Those kids in the picture were really brave to pose in front of that man! Brave and wise beyond their years! They could have done anything- beat him up, yell at him, etc. But they stood there and smiled! What better way to show you are above hate!

Moments of a Lifetime

Tanya’s comment: To practice self-compassion is to forgive yourself for your mistakes; to stop saying “I should’ve…”; to stop criticizing yourself for things you can’t change. Seeking to improve one’s self is a great pursuit, but constant self-judgement is not productive.

Nature’s Tonic~

Tanya’s comment: I’m sharing this post because I think it’s so important to slow down and just be still sometimes. Stop and focus on one thing, like water, even if it’s just a picture.

Kindness Blog

Four stray kittens were discovered hungry and covered in fleas in the Great Meadow Correctional Facility in upstate New York.

Kittens in Jail

The staff then came together to buy food, and inmates created a kitty condo in the facility’s carpentry shop.

On weekends, the convicts pitch in to help care for the kittens.

According to VetStreet.com, the kittens have each been given names associated with the prison: Doc (an abbreviation for the Department of Correctional Services), Comstock (for prison’s location), Annie (for Fort Ann) and Meadow (for Great Meadow).
