HONY

This year flew by. There are many beautiful things in the world--books, animals, creative works, music, and PEOPLE! Too often, the crazies of the world detract from the good that exists in humanity. One site that inspires the good in people, fosters a community of hope, and fights against the despair of loneliness and misfortune is Humans of New York (HONY).

It goes without saying that I love to open my FB and see a picture of lovely individuals. Sometimes the smile on their face tells the story, other times its the wisdom in the eyes. For some, it is the person standing beside the interviewee who is the source of their happiness. The stories coupled with the photos reveal the truth that we are weak, silly, hopeless creatures traversing through life. Yet, through our wit and grit, we can and are resilient to the troubles that life throws our way. Together, we are strong, kind, productive. In order to meet my quote, I will probably upload as individual posts, five of my favorite HONY stories.
