There is so much news out there, so many stories, that are designed and exist just to make us angry, to shock us, or that hope to call us to action. Those emotions are always there, bubbling right below the surface, ready to be set loose by the next horrible story.
That’s why I absolutely love sharing images and micro-stories like these 15, which put a lump in my throat with their completely beautiful transformations.
Take a scroll that will hopefully put a smile on your face, too.
