There’s so much negative news in the world, some of us have chosen to stop reading / watching entirely.
I’d like to help change that.
Every Tuesday, I’ll highlight an article I find that focuses on GOOD NEWS. This column is called Good News Tuesday.
Spread the word.
This week’s entry comes to us Jack Shepard at BuzzFeed.
1o Photos That Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity
1. Chicago Christians who showed up at a gay pride parade to apologize for homophobia in the Church.
And the reaction…
2. Two Norwegian men rescuing a sheep from the ocean.
3. Sign at a book store.
4. This Ohio athlete stopped to help an injured competitor across the finish line during a track meet. She would have won first place, but chose to help her competitor.

6. A villager carrying stranded kittens to dry land during floods in Cuttack City, India.
7. Plaza Cleaners in Portland, OR, helped over 2,000 unemployed workers who couldn’t afford dry cleaning. The store’s owner estimated that it cost his company $32,000 dollars.
