Something to Make You Smile, Cry and Love

In just the past couple of week I have come across some great videos, stories and images. I always share them on my Facebook, but for those who I am not friends with, I would like to share here.

Some of the following have special meaning, others I just thoroughly enjoy, but what I ask you is have you explored outside of your usual viewing habits to find something out of your norm? Have you recently listened to an artist you might not have thought to give 5 seconds of your day to and ended up enjoying what you heard? Or have you watched a video or read a short story that made you cry, feel really happy or just all out shocked you? Please always share because others will feel those same great emotions we all need to feel.

Enjoy the following because I know I have.

Couple Married 72 Years Dies Holding Hands - It is just like the movie, The Notebook, except it was real. Click on the link to read their story.

The following is true love of our era...




The night before the burial of her husband, 2nd Lt. James Cathey of the United States Marine Corps, killed in Iraq, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the casket, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. The Marines made a bed for her, tucking in the sheets below the flag. Before she fell asleep, she opened her laptop computer and played songs that reminded her of "Cat", and one of the Marines asked if she wanted them to continue standing watch as she slept.
"I think it would be kind of nice if you kept doing it" she said.
"I think that's what he would have wanted".
I am not sure what is more honorable: Being married to this faithful wife to the end or the Marine standing next to the casket watching over them both.

Something for the Halloween season - I know you have probably viewed the house during Christmas time that lights up to music from Trans Siberian Orchestra. Now how about this
.

Now for some more music - I just found this yesterday thanks to a great friend on Facebook. I love Adele, but I realllly like this version.



I know we have some animal lovers out there - This one will really prove that every animal has a heart. Still makes me cry.


And finally, I leave you with this. The goalkeepers from UNC Ashville are awesome. Look up some more of his videos if you have time.
