Stuff to thaw your icy heart.
Life these days has a tendency of making us all a little more cynical and cut off than we used to be. These
wholesome moments are here to remind you that it's not all bad. Quell that inner cynic, take inspiration from these pics, and go forth and spread more positivity in the world - make it the image you want to see.

My son had his gymnastics meet today. When his teammate didn’t get any medals, he offered to share one of his. “But I didn’t earn it”, his friend said. My son replied “You earned it by being my best friend.” Made me tear up, what a good little man.

8 years sober from heroin today and a week without cigarettes (though I’m having trouble). I don’t have anyone really to share with so here I am. Here’s to the future!

You guys… THIS IS MY DAD. He drove to my workplace and waited on me to arrive so he could pour a trail of salt from my vehicle to the front door of my building so that I, his 38 year old daughter, wouldn’t slip and fall on the ice. Love you, daddy.

I’ve made a commitment to stay sober and take my life back. I’ve made it 2.5 days, which is the longest streak I can remember.

Every morning, our cat patiently waits at my sons’ bedroom door for them to wake up. And it’s not to be fed – he just can’t wait to see them.
