There Are Multiple Ninjas Cutting Onions in Front of Me

This moved me to tears. A special needs student given a chance to play with 90 seconds left in the last game of the season, and the player on the OPPOSING team, passes the ball to him for the last shot of the game.

Worth the watch and a good reminder for the day that there are things far more important out there than your first world problems...

Nothing but pure awesome sauce. I saw this one last week.....amazing. Good parenting fosters the golden rule. I would bet that the parents of the kid that gave the ball away were never prouder. Golf clap to mom and dad.

Getting my 2.5yo daughter to share her Unicorn Stuffie is a bit challenging at the moment, but we're working on it.

wish they reported this sort of thing more often than...well you know, the usual crap. A little re-enforcement of the kindness of the human spirit wouldnt be such a bad thing to report every once in awhile now would it.
