The internet can be full of nastiness
and sadness – this is where you go to escape. Check into Hope Hotel, a series
of uplifting stories.
I created this section on my blog because I think there’s a constant need to be reminded that there is so much in this world that's good and true and beautiful. And all of that can be boiled down to one word: hope – my favourite word in the entire English language.
“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.” – Desmond Tutu

This physics teacher is inspiring for the way he gives his students hope and encouragement.
But what makes him truly remarkable is the way he integrates lessons on the power of love into his classes. He does that by drawing on his personal experience as dad to a special needs son.
This video is 12 minutes long, but I promise you it’s worth every second.

If this video of a turtle thanking a diver for freeing it from a net doesn’t give you warm fuzzies, I don’t know what will.
Incredibly beautiful.

An American boy with autism really wanted to go to the prom - so his mum threw a ball for special needs kids, so he wouldn't miss out on this rite of passage. She expected a small turnout - 180 kids showed up. This story is just beautiful.

Llamas are so rad. In the US, these gentle animals are bringing joy to hospitals and rest homes. Heart-eyes emoji, guys!
Two wonderful charities in the US - Random Acts of Flowers, and The Bloom Project - are recycling flowers from events and stores to create beautiful arrangements that they deliver to hospices. All the feels.
