My BF Grew Up Incredibly Poor. When He Was A Child, He Wanted A Charizard Lunchbox – He Felt If He Had It At School, He’d Feel Normal, Like Everyone Else. I Found The Lunchbox On Ebay, 18 Years Later
My boyfriend and i were at Walmart recently, and he recounted a story to me from his childhood. He grew up incredibly poor, his mother being a single mom raising two kids on her own, his father abandoning them when he was very young. He and his mom would “window shop” at stores, just to pass the time and look at stuff they knew they couldn’t buy. When he was little, when pokemon was really big, Walmart had a Charizard lunch box. He thought it was the coolest thing; Charizard was his favorite pokemon, and how often did you see things with just Charizard? The lunchbox wasn’t necessarily expensive, but with the threat of no power or running water, it might has well have been a billion dollars. His mom put the lunchbox on layaway and said he’d get it for his birthday, but my boyfriend knew that it wasn’t going to happen and it was definitely more of a gesture. It was so much more than a lunchbox. He felt if he had this lunchbox at school, he’d feel normal, he’d feel like everyone else.
His birthday is in December, and after much eBay stalking I found the lunchbox he yearned for, 18 years ago. It was in amazing condition. This was the moment it really started to sink in. He cried for a LONG time. He finally got his lunchbox he could never have.

Friendship Finds A Way
Where there is a will there is a way. Calebs buddy Ike missed him very much, I went to the kids room earlier today and played with Ike for a bit, he asked how Caleb was doing and so did Caleb's other friend Casey. We said out goodbyes and I headed back to Caleb's room. Ike rolled over in his wheelchair and knocked on the door and wanted to come say hello. Caleb is on double doors and is unable to leave the room so I grabbed some rubber gloves and a controller and gave it to Ike outside the glass, now they are having a blast playing Call of Duty. Love seeing these guys smiling and just being kids.

Chicago Christians Showed Up At A Gay Pride Parade To Apologize For Homophobia In The Church And The Reactions From The Parade Were Priceless
Josh D 8 years ago
Ivan, I greatly disagree with you. I am a christian and I used to be, maybe not homophobic, but very judgemental of anything that varied from my faith. As I have grown older I have come to realize that I am no better or worse than anyone of any belief system or orientation and that my goal in life should be what Jesus wanted it to be, to love my neighbor as I love myself. I am truly sorry you feel that way about bible believing christians. People have done some pretty aweful things in the name of God throughout history, I won't disagree. Man though is quite good at grabbing power for himself and justifying it with one "righteous" reason or another, and not always for relgious reasons either. From the crusades to the holocaust, humanity will find one reason or another for hating others that are different from himself. We need to learn to hate the wrong and the injustice that was done by the person, not the person themselves. We have all done other's wrong, should we all be

This is why I think that community members directly helping each other is so much better than expecting the government to do it. Faster responses, no one is getting a cut of the money, and it promotes the creation of relationships with your neighbors.

Just had a thought - how about if everyone who gives this article an up vote goes out tomorrow and does one kind act to pay forward the good feelings this article gave us Doesn't have to be big, just one thing that is kind - leave water out for animals on a hot day or stop and talk to someone to make sure they are okay. Just something small to help continue to make life great :-)

Loving someone means being happy when they are happy, and wishing for their happiness above all... even if that happiness doesn't directly involve you in the way you hoped.

Hey, Bored Panda: when you have articles that are several pages long, give people the ability to jump to the page they want instantly, rather than having to scroll through, page by page. If I wanted to show a friend something that I liked on Page 15, I'd have to click through, one at a time, to get to it. That's annoying.
