Why the mankind still exists. Part 2.

I want to begin my first blog in 2015 about something nice and positive. This year began great therefore would be good to see it the same farther also.

I like to read about kind acts very much. People who make them are awesome and they inspire me. They show that our world can be saved from rage, envy and greed. I`d like to list those good deeds which were remembered to me more than others. Those acts which caused admiration tears inside me.

The name of this elderly woman is Lilian Weber, she`s 99 now. Every day this American lady sews one dress for the needing African girls.

She lives in the State of Iowa, USA and spends 3 hours with sewing machine every day. Lilian tries to create original dresses, that any dress didn`t repeat.

This social experiment was directed on showing whether people are ready to share the food with other person or no. Guys approached those people who ate outside and asked about food. All people refused and looked at guys as at mentally ill people. Then they bought a pizza to homeless man, having presented by the charitable organization. When a man started eating, one of participants of the experiment came to him and asked to give him a pizza slice. Homeless man shared the food without fluctuating. Having eating pizza, guy thanked the homeless dude and gave him money for his generosity. Man understood that it was experiment, closes eyes that nobody saw he`s crying.

This experiment shows that you shouldn`t be rich if you want to help somebody.

World Cup-2014 in Brazil. Fan from Netherlands had excess tickets for the match between Holland and Spain. Instead of selling them for the good sum, he presented those tickets to poor Brazilian boys. Look at this happy boy`s face! :)
P.S. The Dutch has the same happy face, probably kindness makes happy not only those people who receive it, but also those people who make it.

Two Pennsylvania teens are being hailed as heroes after they chased down a man in a car who had snatched a five-year-old girl from her grandmother's front yard - on their bikes .



A  5 year old girl, was missing for two hours yesterday when Temar Boggs and a friend saw the child in a car near Lancaster Township and gave chase.


After Boggs, 15, and his friend had been tailing the vehicle for 15 minutes, the driver let the little girl out of the car and sped off.



The  girl was playing in the front yard of her grandmother's home on the 100 block of Jennings Drive in Lancaster Township when she disappeared at about 4:35pm Thursday. 
The family notified police and officers sprang into action, blocking off streets and scouring the area with canine units. Police showed the child's picture around the neighborhood and Boggs and his friend joined more than 100 first responders searching for the girl.
Boggs spottted the girl in the abductor's car and he and his friend began to follow the car.  Boggs and his friends kept after the kidnapper. “We chased the car for fifteen minutes.” Eventually, the kidnapper, apparently unable to shake Temar Boggs and his friends, gave up his victim.
“I guess he got scared that we were chasing him, and he let her out….She ran to me and said she needed her mommy.”
Boggs put the girl on his shoulders and carried her while riding his bike, but he decided that that was too dangerous, and so he carried her the rest of the way.
'If he wasn't going to stop, I was probably going to like, jump on the car,'.

The charitable organization Degage Ministries decided to show on example of the homeless veteran Jim Wolfe that to do good acts is easy. They decided to show that street tramps are the same people as we as well. Care of appearance-and homeless veteran turns into stylish, modern gentleman. Yes, it won`t save him instantly but will help to look at himself in a new way and try to change his life to the best.

Animals who are traumatized or are born with mutilations, are doomed to death in the nature: they can`t care of themselves independently, so, sooner or later they will die from the illness or hunger. But under supervision of vigilant volunteers and loving owners even hopeless, apparently, disabled animals get the second chance.

Serbian Renato Grbic was out fishing on the Danube with his brother when he heard a big splash. At first, he thought somebody had thrown something off the bridge.

Then he saw a man flailing in the water.
"We hurried and pulled the man out," Grbic recalls. "I remember telling him: Such a glorious day and you want to kill yourself!"
It was the first time Grbic saved a life. From that day 15 years ago, his own life would never be the same. The bright-eyed, tattooed restaurant owner from a shabby industrial zone on the outskirts of Belgrade has rescued 25 people who tried to kill themselves by jumping off the tall bridge over the Danube.
Always on alert in his little wooden motor boat, the burly 51-year-old has pulled people out of the river's muddy waters without asking for anything in return.
"I couldn't turn my back on them," Grbic said. "They are desperate people."
Grbic has been dubbed the "Superman of the Danube" by his admirers and awarded a hero's plaque by Belgrade city authorities. But even "Superman" can't save everybody who jumps off the 18-meter- (60-foot-) high bridge: At least as many as he had saved have killed themselves at the spot since Grbic's first rescue.
"When I hear that someone has jumped and I wasn't there I really feel bad," he said. "My eyes are always on the bridge."
The Pancevo bridge became a favored suicide spot because it is Belgrade's only bridge over the Danube, which is bigger and colder and has stronger underwater currents than the city's other river, the Sava.
The first person Grbic pulled out of the Danube turned out to be a mental patient. Grbic took him ashore, gave him dry clothes, hot tea and cigarettes. Later, an ambulance came and took the man away.
"That was it," Grbic says. "He didn't speak, they never do."
On one of those days, in mid-January about seven years ago, Grbic was just preparing to turn his boat to shore and go home — when he heard a scream.
An 18-year-old woman going through a mental crisis had burst out of her parents' car at the bridge, taken off her jacket and jumped, shouting: "Goodbye mom!"
The girl, Grbic said, is the only one who has stayed in touch.

Grbic said something had made him stick around: "It was a very windy day, a few minutes later and I would have gone."
Every January she comes to his fish restaurant to celebrate her "second birthday." She is married now and has a child. Grbic was invited to the wedding reception.
"My heart leaps every time I see her," he said.
Grbic has little or no information about what happened to the others he saved. It would be nice, he says, if they came to tell him how they were over a brandy at his restaurant.
"I gave them a second chance and it was up to them to use it well."

In a close-knit Utah town where time has become a precious commodity for one family, the Christmas lights are already up and Halloween is in full swing 10 days early.


The town of West Jordan has come together to ensure that a 4-year-old boy with only a short time to live gets to make the most of it. Ethan Van Leuven has been battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia for more than half of his life, and doctors have declared that his illness is no longer treatable.

"So the doctors basically said, he's got two days to a couple of weeks left to live, and so that's when we thought we would make the most of the last days he has remaining with us,'' Ethan's father, Merrill Van Leuven, told Joe Fryer on TODAY Friday. 

On Tuesday night, the community of West Jordan celebrated Halloween 10 days early as Ethan put on his Superman costume and went trick-or-treating. Two days later, the town held a parade in honor of Ethan's fifth birthday, one month before the actual day.The week of holidays will continue on Friday when the community celebrates Christmas Eve, with everyone on the block putting up Christmas decorations.

The family and community are aiming to make every moment special for Ethan in his final days. On Saturday, they will celebrate Christmas, Ethan's favorite holiday. 


"It's a really difficult time, but this just makes it a little bit easier just to see how many people love and support,'' Jennifer said.

The Swiss charity foundation Pro Infirmis made the social advertizing devoted to physically disabled people. Pro Infirmis replaced usual "perfect" dummies with specially made figures of real disabled people in the shop in Zurich.
Words "Because who is perfect?" became a slogan of the company about which 13 million people have known after this advertizing.




Kindness-is a great force.
If we will do more good things, more small miracles will happen all over the world.
We all aren`t perfect but if people are capable of such good acts, it means kindness is not lost.

The small blog about important role of travel in our lives :)

Sorry, but I hadn`t the inspiration the whole month. Probably it is an influence of Russia and of that situation in which I live. It is impossible to create something when the city presses on you from all sides. Saint Petersburg is a very strange place: sometimes it inspires you and praise to skies, sometimes it makes you depressed and lowers, as though reminding that it is Russia after all and nothing perfect can exist here. I went crazy the whole month but people thought that I`m ok and all is nice. This summer is very unclear-I spent the beginning in Gomel, and everything was cool there, but then I returned to St. Petersburg, "plunged" into terrible cold and stayed at home about warm days. I hate cold especially in june and (the most awful!) at the beginning of july. It seemed to me that something invisible exhausts the life and all my forces from me. }

But fortunately now the heat is here, a wonderful weather, and my mood is great too. Sometimes crazy events occur in Russia. It was a couple of days ago:

My foreign friends were schoked when they saw this picture. They don`t make crazy acts. maybe it is good that Russia is such, who knows. You will never be bored here because you`ll become mad of these people or you will laugh like crazy because of them; or you will have maaaaany problems and nobody will care how you will solve them. Very funny...

Recently my head is filled of different thoughtsб concerning my future. The I become more senior, the more I understand that I don`t need anything escept travel, my camera, iPod, books and writing-books for records. I don`t think about family, I don`t dream about cool husband, I absolutely don`t know where to work and what to do in life. The only thing of what I am sure it is that I want to write and travel. I have a desire to have my own house somewhere in the wood but not in Russia. I wanna fly to different places without bothering, as my many friends, what to make for dinner, where to find a sofa on a discount and where to go with children during the weekend. Such life is not for me, I understood it long ago already. In youth is necessary to be crazy, to find yourself, to develop, to live happily and travel-travel-travel. I don`t think that something is better than travelling. I`ll decay and I`ll go out if I won`t go to new countries and new cities.

The most awful thing it is that almost nobody understands me. All my friends think only about weddings and about family. If they want to go somewhere, usually it is: Paris, new York, London, Cyprus or Thailand. And I don`t understand: with whom I`ll fly to Iceland, to Brazil, to Easter Island, to Antarctica, to Valdes Peninsula?.. Probably, alone. I have huge plans about my future and trips are first in them. I can`t describe that feeling when you fly in the plane towards to adventures...When you buy a ticket to another country...Airports, people, luggage, stewardesses with trays, different languages all the time...It seemed to me that being in new place I get an orgasm each hour because I see around me something new, interesting and unusual. If you`ll ask what makes me really happy, I`ll answer without reflecting: travel.




Travel are very important, you don`t imagine how much. After travel and during them something changes in you. You will never be former anymore. It is like drugs: you will try it one time-and then you will want more, more and more. But travel is a good drug. It leads not to death, it leads to life.

I want to remember in old age what interesting youth I had. I don`t want to remember pampers, infinite cooking of breakfasts and dinners, quarrels with husband and childrens` marks at the school. It is not interesting to me. Mom considers me strange, friends consider me strange, all people try to overpersuade me and prove that family is a real happiness. But all these people have never been abroad and if even were, they visited only mean Turkey. Guys, never try to impose me your outlooks on life. I have my values and dreams which make me happy. You don`t imagine how happy I am when I go somewhere and how unhappy I am when I stand on one place. The worst thing for me is to live all my life as the majority of people live. It is silly-to buy iPhone that costs 600 euros because you can travel for these money. I don`t think that your phones, tablets and computers will give you that pleasure which you derive from travel. Advise to everybody who didn`t travel still-begin it! You won`t regret, it is 100%!

Nature inspires me. Travel inspires. Loneliness inspires. The inspiration overflows me. I want to inform to you that is the most important for me. It is necessary to change your places. And it is very useful also. I wish to find such person who will think in the same way as I do. I want to travel with him (or her) together, to find something new and unusual, to get to cool adventures. Unfortunately, I don`t have such people in my enviroment. I know one person but he lives in another country. But he is the first person in my life who loves to travel as much as me. Why everything perfect what is really necessary for us, is so far away? I don`t understand this world`s rules and I`m not going to understand them. It is necessary to change everything! ;) In the near future, to be exact, at the peak of youth I am going to visit absolutely different places: from Brazil to Japan, from Barcelona to Reykjavík and so on. Not important how much money I need for it-everything will be anyway. I always knew that travel is the best purpose for me but literally a few days ago I took that for the sake of them I am ready to refuse everything. And it doesn`t frighten me, and even pleases. Anything and nobody will hold down me and hold on one place!


Travellers see whatever no one can notice.
Tourists see what they want to see.

And what I should have in any way-it is my own house. I love moving but I need a place where I`ll be able to go back always. And the place which was built specially for me. Because only the place which has been picked up by me personally, inspires and calms me. I guess my dream house will look approximately so:




None of my friends doesn`t love loneliness and I go crazy when I am alone. All people try to prove that to be alone is wrong but why do you think so? Only because you hate being alone? Strange conclusion. I can`t wait when I`ll have my own house in a lonely quiet place where nobody will never disturb me. Where I will create and have a rest.
