Sometimes we just need a little reminder in this world that everything lovely and warm and sweet isn’t dead or dying.
If you’re having one of those days when that sounds like just what you need, here are 12 pictures bound to do the trick.
And away we go!
#11. It’s not just a rock.
It’s a promise. Or something like that.
In 1983 I told my 14-year-old girlfriend to “just get me a rock” for Christmas. She did. I married her. 35 years later we are still together, I still have it, and it is the most precious gift I have ever received.

#10. Everyone needs a smile now and again.
This gal will keep them buzzing for years!
A cute amazon review I revisit just for a smile. An 88 year old woman and her 92 year old husband attend a Halloween party. Btw they liked the bee costume.

This is the best reason for closing.
#12. The best of both worlds.
Old school cool, right there!
My parents, both Polish immigrants, soon after meeting in Chicago in the late 70’s. They recently moved back to Poland for retirement after 40 years living the American Dream.

#2. Life is a series of moments.
These two are amazing!

#1. True love is alive.
So amazing to see love like this!
Be the light that illuminates the world, and people will love you not just for the brightness you bring, but the warmth you inspire.
Or something like that.
Alright… we want to hear from you. Which one of these really tugged at your heart strings? We know at least one of these had to melt those cold, icy centers of your soul, right?
We kid, but we’d still like to hear your thoughts.
