Students Surprise Teacher Who Commutes Miles on Scooter With New Car

Often teachers are some of the kindest, most dedicated people most will ever encounter.One group of students saw a need, decided to help and give back to an educator who gives of himself daily.

As the video posted on YouTube indicates, Julio Castro is a math teacher at YULA Boys School in Los Angeles, California. He loves his family, and his students and sees teaching as more of a calling than a job. 

In the video, Julio refers to his students as “his kids” and only wants the best for them. He states, “I want you guys to be on my shoulders and just jump higher.” 

Julio is very dedicated to his students and their success. But he has a problem, he has no car and can’t afford one.

“He gets up at 4:15 in the morning,” Daphna said, the mother of one of Julio’s students. “Takes a scooter to the bus, sits on a bus for two hours to get into the city, goes on that same scooter to come to campus several miles. Works during lunchtime to help the kids, stays after school to help the kids and does the same reverse commute.”

Julio does not get home until 9:30 at night, long after his girlfriend’s children, to whom he has become a father figure, have already gone to bed. He does this every single day!

So, a group of students got to work. The students organized different events throughout their summer break to raise money to buy a car for their teacher. They put together a basketball tournament, had a movie night and asked businesses in their area for financial assistance. 

The students had a goal of $10,000 and ended up raising more than $11,00! Also, the CEO of the Change Reaction stated his organization would match the students' $10,000! 

After securing the money, the students went car shopping, but they came up a little short of the funds for the vehicle they felt was “the one.” But thanks to the car dealership's generosity, they did buy the vehicle.Julio would get his much-needed vehicle! 

The next step was setting up an elaborate plan that involved school administrators and a police officer to surprise Julio and his family with the new ride.

He also received a few added bonuses that will change Julio and his family’s life!

What a beautiful video about a group of kind and caring students who saw a need and acted!

Dick Van Dyke As Gnome Performs Frank Sinatra Hit On The Masked Singer

It’s hard to find an entertainer more beloved than the talented Dick Van Dyke. He has enjoyed a long and storied career that has included such classics as Mary Poppins and The Dick Van Dyke Show. The legendary actor popped up in another hit television show.

The gnome, one of the characters on this season’s edition of The Masked Singer, sported an awfully familiar voice. The person inside the gnome costume treated the studio audience and those watching at home to a performance of Frank Sinatra’s “When You’re Smiling.”

Several dancers jump around on the stage during the song while, what appears to be, flower petals fall to the ground. Balloons are also released, landing among the studio audience and the judges. 

Everyone is having a good time, including the judges, as the man in the gnome costume sings!

The person inside the gnome costume, who sang Sinatra’s hit, turned out to be none other than Dick Van Dyke. Unfortunately, the 97-year-old was forced to unmask and reveal himself after he was the first person kicked off the show this season.

When asked about his experience as the gnome, Dick responded with his trademark wit and humor.

“It was real dark in there,” Dick said. Oh yeah, you couldn’t see anything. I just loved it that they thought I was Robert DeNiro. I didn’t know Robert DeNiro could sing.”

One of the show’s judges, Nicole Scherzinger, was in tears after the gnome was revealed to be Dick. 

“I love you so much,” she said through tears. “We love you. The whole world loves you so much. It’s an honor to have you on our show.”

Ken Jeong told Dick that he was one of the reasons he went into comedy.

“Our greatest reveal ever,” Ken said to Dick.

Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brothers, whatever things are pure, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”

Skater Kurt Browning Clowns Around on the Ice

Who says you can’t have fun at work? One skater literally clowned around on the ice.

A clip posted on Facebook shows Canadian figure skater Kurt Browning taking the ice in a very unusual outfit. He’s wearing big, baggy pants held up with suspenders over his shoulders, a red and yellow striped shirt and a bright red clown nose.

Normally, figure skaters come out in intricately decorated, tight-fitting, beautiful clothes. Based on his appearance alone, Kurt has something special in store.

Even before the music starts, Kurt has the audience in stitches. His overexaggerated stretching movements make for a hilarious spectacle. 

Once his routine begins and the music starts playing, Kurt, while at center ice, must corral his legs as they keep slipping away from him. Of course, this is all part of the routine. 

Soon enough, after Kurt maintains control over his limbs, he skates and shows off his impressive skill on the ice. While picking up speed and giving those in attendance several more laughs, Kurt goes into a beautiful jump, landing perfectly on the ice. 

The audience loves it! Cheers and applause all around!

Again, following a few hilarious movements timed perfectly to the music accompanying his routine, Kurt displays his skill and athleticism. He performs another jump and spins in the air, which dazzles the crowd!

At approximately the 3-minute mark in the clip, Kurt sends the audience into another fit of laughter. He acts as if he’s lost all control of his body on the ice, contorting his body into a snake-like movement. He is literally face-down on the ice at times!

While performing another tricky skating maneuver, Kurt is heard screaming! Of course, this is all just part of his act. He pulls off the move with ease and finesse. 

But Kurt leaves his best for last. He ends his hilarious and beautiful routine skating backward, screaming as he heads toward and lands on the judges’ table.

Kurt is rewarded for his inventive and laugh-out-loud funny routine that shows off his technical expertise and showmanship with a perfect score from the judges!

Kind Barber Helps 7-Year-Old With Special Needs Overcome Fear

In the world, a little bit of kindness can go a long way and possibly even change someone’s entire outlook on life. One man who cuts hair for a living did just that for a young man.

Everyone has something they fear, which causes them to experience a rush of anxiety and apprehension. For 7-year-old Ellison, that which caused him panic and alarm was getting his hair trimmed. 

Text in a video posted to YouTube reads that Ellison, who has special needs, “would rarely smile in a salon chair.” The young man did not enjoy having his ears lowered. However, that was all before Ellison’s mother learned about Vernon.

Vernon, as the text reads, “takes extra time to cut hair for kids with special needs.” Now, because of Vernon’s big heart and kindness, Ellison has defeated and overcome his fear. In fact, the video mentions that “for the first time” Ellison looks forward to his next haircut. 

Instead of an unhappy and scared child, the video shows Ellison smiling and giggling as Vernon cuts his hair. Vernon playfully interacts with Ellison as he cuts the child’s hair. 

In the video, Ellison tells Vernon when to cut his hair and when to stop. The two buddies are all smiles!

Acts of kindness do impact people’s lives, whether in a big or a small way. Most of the time, though, we do not get to see how our kind, loving actions touched the lives of others. 

But one look at the smiles on Ellison’s face and Vernon can rest assured that he made a positive impact in that young man’s life. Vernon’s act of kindness, taking a little more time, has made a world of difference to Ellison. 

What a beautiful and heartwarming clip that reminds us that decent, kind-hearted people still exist in our world!

Proverbs 12:25 “Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but a kind word makes it glad.”

Angel Wings Appear As Mom Spreads Daughter’s Ashes

Life can throw plenty of painful and heartbreaking experiences in our direction. However, as tough as some situations can be, there likely isn’t one more heart-wrenching or agonizing experience than losing a child.

As others have said, parents aren’t supposed to bury their children. Children are to outlive their parents. But one popular video on social media shows a mother doing just that, saying farewell to her late daughter.

The short clip shows a woman standing on a rocky landscape near the end of a river or a lake as a waterfall is in the background. Soon after the video starts, text appears instructing viewers to be on the lookout for something special.

“Watch my mom spread my sisters ashes and sis shows us her Angel Wings. If this doesn’t make you a believer, I don’t know what will,” the text in the video reads. 

Additional text in the Instagram video reads, “This is breathtaking.” Soft music played on a piano also accompanies the video. 

The woman near the water faces toward the camera. The woman appears to be saying something, but we do not hear it and cannot read her lips. 

Seconds later, the mother turns and scatters her daughter’s ashes into the body of water and the sky. Soon after the woman's toss, some of her daughter’s remains hang in the sky and an odd shape can be seen in the video. 

The formation is totally up to personal interpretation as to what it looks like. The video's author claims the shape is the wings of an angel. Personally, I believe it looks much more like a heart.

Regardless of whatever shape those ashes appear to make, this mother and sister likely need much prayer and comfort following their loss.

Psalm 147:3 “He makes the brokenhearted well, and puts oil on their wounds.”

Daughter Surprises Dad As His Anonymous Kidney Donor

Those lucky enough to become parents love, cherish and protect their children. Most parents would do anything to keep their children from feeling pain. One young woman turned the tables and showed how far she was willing to go to keep her dad safe.

Going to the doctor, undergoing medical exams and hearing awful, unwanted news from a medical professional can be devastating. One father was in a similar scary medical situation, according to one post on Instagram.

The post reads that the man was experiencing kidney failure. Just 4% of his kidneys were properly functioning. This situation was dire; he was in desperate need of a new kidney. But, as the post mentions, his daughter, who turned out to be a match, stepped up and offered to give up one of her kidneys.

The video shows the touching moments when he learned that his daughter was the mystery donor who saved his life! 

The video begins with the young woman, dressed in a hospital gown, entering the room where her father is recovering. He is stunned at the revelation.

“Oh my God, are you kidding me?” He says as she enters the room.

Dad is unable to say anything else as he’s overcome with emotion. 

The young woman, as she approaches her father, can be heard reassuring him.

“It’s so good,” she says. “It’s OK. It’s OK. Oh, it’s fine.”

The post mentions the young woman kept that she was a match and had decided to donate a kidney a secret from him for eight months!

What a beautiful video that displays a child's love for her father! 

Normally, a parent fixes the situation, but it was the daughter who stepped up and acted in love. She literally gave up a part of herself so that her dad could go on living. 

Philippians 2:3 “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves.”
