Published on Leave a comment on Wild Baby Kangaroo Still Comes Home to Hug His Teddy Bear After Release

By Sheila Key -Aug 17, 2015

After they leave the nest, parents always hope their kids will come back and
visit. Even when that kid is a kangaroo.
Australian mom and wildlife rehabilitator Gillian Abbot rescued this baby roo when it was two months old and raised the orphan, giving it a teddy bear to cuddle with.

Baby Kangaroo Comes Home To Hug His Teddy

Now almost fully grown, Doodlebug, as he was named, is making another life transition, what animal-rescue folks call a “soft return” to the wild.

He comes and goes as he pleases now, and every time the eastern gray
kangaroo returns to his homestead, he empties the food bowl and hugs his
teddy– just like old times.

The family shared a photo of the young marsupial holding tight to the teddy
bear, which has been thoughtfully tied up to dangle at a huggable height.
Abbot is a licensed ‘wildlife carer’ in New South Wales and a member of the rescue organization WIRES .

Published on Leave a comment on Healing From Neglect As A Child: Find Keys – This Will Make A Difference!

By Janet Vargas - Owner Of This Website

Was there some way you felt unnoticed in your upbringing? Some of us experienced that with Teachers, an Aunty and Uncle, a big Brother or Sister but others have had rough beginnings with their Parents - believe it or not - who took very little notice of them and did not show much affection. This is something I've felt very passionate about since the 80's.

If you were neglected in some way as a child - unnoticed or lacking affection - I really feel for you because I experienced a sudden change at a young age of a different but similar nature, that left me decidedly empty and unfulfilled. Parents, please give each child your best in life. You may not have much else to give them materially speaking but please give them the "Best of You!" Lots of hugs, some undivided interest each day and some laughter in the Home are the Best Gifts and Start in Life you can give them - other things are not so important.

You need to apologise to your kids and change your ways if you don't.…

Published on Leave a comment on This 10-Year-Old Walked 2,800Kms With His Dad from Italy to England For a Hug With Grandma

By Judy Cole Good News Network

I JUST LOVE THIS STORY AND KNOW MANY OF MY VISITORS WILL TOO.

Visiting loved ones during the pandemic has become a daunting task.

Even so, when 10-year-old Romeo Cox decided what he wanted more than anything else was a hug from his 77-year-old grandmother, he didn’t let a few little bumps in the road—like quarantine, or that she was 1,700 miles away and there were no flights from his new home in Sicily to his native U.K.—stop him from making the journey.

“I hadn’t seen Granny for a year and a half, so [during lockdown] I planned in secret to go see her,” he said in an interview with The Times of London.

Romeo’s parents took some convincing, but Romeo finally talked them into letting him make the trip. “I asked my parents and they said no more than 50 times,” he told The Daily Mail.

“Eventually they agreed—provided we planned everything was Covid-safe.”

With his folks’ blessing, Romeo turned his plans into action. “I drew a map. I would walk and take boats and do it naturally to help the planet,” he told the Times.…

Published on Leave a comment on Why Some People Tear Others Down – Need A Few Clues? And What To Do.

I knew someone who has experienced this with someone at her church for some time believe it or not. There are a few gossips and busybodies there too. It is evident to me that none of these offenders have a real relationship with Jesus – to be acquainted with Him is reflected in love for others and appropriate conduct. If someone has unseemly behavior, something is wrong – sometimes you have to ask yourself if they really know Jesus? Maybe not!

The Following Advice "in quotation marks" is from James George (The rest is from me) He is a caring person with some good insights.

"No matter what we do in life, there can be someone at some stage who has something negative to say but some people like to tear others down, not just you – please remember this. Sometimes they find every fault that you have and exploit it to make you feel bad about yourself. They want to demolish someone’s confidence. It’s frustrating to hurt your feelings and it makes you feel like you’re insignificant. So why does this happen? Why do people feel like they have to tear others down and make them feel bad?"…

French Post Workers Help The Elderly

“It’s lovely to see the postman as I don’t usually see anyone else all week,” says 81-year-old Janine. She’s enjoying a French postal service initiative that’s helping elderly people living in isolation far from relatives.

Under the scheme, called “Watch over my parents” (Veiller sur mes parents), families can pay from €20 a month for postmen and postwomen to check on their parents during morning rounds.…

Published on Leave a comment on The Science Of Making, Breaking And Replacing Habits

ABC Science By science reporter Belinda Smith

4th January 2021

Welp, after what felt like the longest year ever, it's 2021. And with the new year often comes resolutions — maybe more so this time round.

Perhaps you want to lose some of those "corona-kilos" or simply maintain the good hygiene behaviours drummed into us during the pandemic.

There are ways to develop good habits — and make them stick — that are backed by scientific evidence.

And it all begins — where else? — in the brain. But first: what even are habits, and why do we need them?

We Really Are Creatures Of Habit

A substantial chunk of daily life is made up of habitual actions. This is the stuff where once you get going, you pretty much run on autopilot.

A classic example is driving to work (back when regular commuting was a thing). You might remember getting in your car and then suddenly, you're pulling into your office's car park.

But the first few times you drove to work were a different story. They required more brain power: planning and memorising the best route to your destination, paying attention to your surroundings and thinking harder about your actions and their consequences.…

By Jade Scipioni from CNCB.COM

HE IS A CULINARY TEACHER. PLEASE READ HOW HE ACTED ON NEWS HE HEARD FROM STUDENTS ATTENDING HIS CLASS AND HOW HIS FAMILY GOT INVOLVED. THEY ARE PASSIONATE AND CONSISTENT TOO. THE CARROLL FAMILY ARE TO BE COMMENDED INDEED FOR THEIR BENEVOLENCE AND TIRELESS EFFORTS. IN A WORLD WHERE SO MANY PEOPLE TAKE ALL THEY CAN GET AT THE EXPENSE OF OTHERS (So Selfish) IT IS SO GOOD TO HEAR MORE REPORTS ABOUT THE GIVERS. BESIDES, GIVING, EVEN IN SMALL WAYS CAN BE SO ENRICHING. THIS STORY IS REALLY INTERESTING READING AND A GOOD EXAMPLE TO ALL - ENJOY!

While assigning meal prep and homework to his culinary arts students during the shutdown, Kelly Carroll learned that many of his students didn't have access to food in their homes. Instead of just talking about homework assignments, he began asking his students if they were in need of food; the area where they reside has no local food bank. They began feeding about 10-15 families a week and, with the help and support of the community, they are now able to serve more than 200 families weekly.…
