Title: These People Give Hope To Humanity
Post by: shahrukh on June 04, 2015, 06:24:24 AM
Let's take a break from all the bad news being reported. Take a moment to consider all the silent heroes who spend their lives doing good deeds every day. They show us all what it means to be a good person. They are a beacon of good and their role is to balance the scales. It is our role to learn their stories and pass it on, so it doesn't get lost in the chaos of other headlines.
