What’s the good news?
If it’s Thursday, I must need therapy! Have you checked the back pages of your local paper lately? Do me (and yourself!) a favor and make it a point to find the good news that never gets the bold headlines. Pick a news source anywhere in the world or something great you’ve found on the web. Better yet, share a heart-warming first-person moment that gladdened your heart. Those little day-to-day moments that make us smile are the stuff of a happy life and worthy of sharing. Here’s your chance to recognize them for what they are and spread a little sunshine in the process. Post a link to your good news below. It can be a post on your own blog or to the source that made you grin. I’ll do a round-up later today (might be early tomorrow in your part of the world) when we SHARE THE GOOD STUFF!

Hi,
A few years I took my family on holiday to Spain. One evening we were all eating tapas, while watching the sunset over the Med. My son picked up a baby squid and asked what it was. “Squid” I replied.
“Oh..And what are these” he said, looking a bit bemused.
“Those are the Squids tentacles,” I answered.
At the end of the meal everyone was happy, even young Charlie. He had tried all the fish on the table and was feeling quite proud of himself.
My wife was telling him how well he had done and how not many children would try all those dishes. “Did you enjoy the fish?” she asked.
Charlie thought for a while and then said “Yes mummy, I liked the fish, but I won’t eat their testicles anymore.”
People at the nearby tables started to laugh along with my wife and I. Charlie was not impressed and went bright red.
Ah, good times.
All the best - John
