Have you heard the story of the dark candle? If you have ever lost a loved one and still find yourself grieving, this story was written for you. It’s not grim story if that’s what you’re thinking. But it is thought provoking, and certainly inspirational.
A man had a little daughter – – an only and much beloved child. He lived only for her, she was his life. So when she became ill and her illness resisted the efforts of the best obtainable physicians, he became like a man possessed, moving heaven and earth to bring about her restoration to health.
His best efforts proved fruitless, however, and the child died. The father was totally irreconcilable. He became a bitter recluse, shutting himself away from his many friends, refusing every activity that might restore his poise and bring him back to his normal self.
Then one night he had a dream. He was in heaven and witnessing a grand pageant of all the little child angels. They were marching in an apparently endless line past the Great White Throne. Every white-robed, angelic tot carried a candle.
He noticed, however, that one child’s candle was not lit. Then he saw that the child with the dark candle was his own little girl. Rushing towards her, while the pageant faltered, he seized her in his arms, caressed her tenderly, and asked, “How is that your candle is the only one not lit?” “Father, they often relight it, but your tears always put it out again,” she said.
Just then he awoke from from his dream. The lesson was crystal clear, and it’s effects were immediate. From that hour on he was no longer a recluse, but mingled freely and cheerfully with his former friends and associates. No longer would his little darling’s candle be extingushed by his useless tears.

The famous Budweiser Clydesdales made their Super Bowl commercial debut nearly 30 years ago. And today their ads are some of the most highly anticipated. Whether the Clydesdales are playing football in a field or engaging in a snowball fight, there is a ton of training that makes these majestic horses so camera-ready.
The video below gives a rare behind-the-scenes look into these amazing commercials as well as the man behind the magic — Robin Wiltshire.
Robin and Kate Wiltshire raise their array of animals on Turtle Ranch in Dubois, Wyoming. For Robin, horse training is not just about camera tricks or paychecks, but it’s a way of life.
The Australian-born trainer uses a reward-based system, giving the horses plenty of love and praise for their hard work. He doesn’t rush his training, he rewards the horses, and he puts deliberate thought behind each and every move.
The Clydesdales’ success is attributed to how well they get to know Robin and the fact he helps keep them so calm and eager to please.

After the editing, special effects, and color corrections are complete, watching the commercials on TV is even more amazing when you know the animals are treated so wonderfully by a man who truly cares about them.
The bond between father and son is truly a special one. Over a million people have been delighted by the video below.
The video’s featured father and creator, Emio, describes it as, “A comprehensive report on the happenings of father and son while Mama is at work for the afternoon. I started shooting this video after his nap, and before bath/dinner/bedtime.”
Emio made this video for his unsuspecting wife, Stephanie, who he said gave him brownie points for making the video so popular. It quickly went viral, and was even featured on MSNBC.
This clip has so many adorable moments, from making a mess of toys on the floor to the sweetest cleanup time you’ve ever seen.
Thousands of people have responded to “Home With Dada” with heartfelt comments. Watching this, you can’t help but remember the good ole days, playing on the carpet with your little kids. It’s a great reminder of how fast time flies and to cherish every single moment.
“He had turkey hot dogs and applesauce for lunch, and we both got applesauce on our shirts, which is why we took them off.”
Summertime is a great time to get the family outside and enjoy a good old-fashioned camping trip, if you can tolerate the pests that come with it.
If you’re bitten by a tick, you need to remove it without breaking the head in order to prevent risk of infection or contracting one of the many diseases they carry.
This simple trick with a cotton swab is a better alternative to a using your fingers or a pair of tweezers.

This artist decided she wanted to see how LSD affected her self-portraits. So, she took some and drew self-portraits through the night, while she was tripping. This is how her journey played out…
Relatively normal. Funky t-shirt design.
Steadily turning purple, but still normal-ish.
Progressively more purple, and has grown freckles.
Chaos is setting in. She’s seriously purple now, and she seems to like it.
At this point she loses her eyes and they never return.
“Here, I am violet.”
And after 6 hours, it starts to get really creative.
Close to the seven hour mark, she reached peak artistry.
Regained eyes. Skin is increasingly multi-colored.
Note to self: 9 hours after taking LSD, you may think you’re a fiery witch-demon. You’re probably not.
Everything starts to wear off around 9 and a half hours, but some purple still remains.
Music lovers, you’re in for a big treat.
In December 2012, CBS aired its broadcast of the annual Kennedy Center Honors, which awards exemplary lifetime achievement in the performing arts. This was the year that British classic rock band Led Zeppelin was one of the honorees.
“Stairway to Heaven,” released in 1971, is often referred to as one of the greatest rock songs of all time. For any guitarist, learning each note of the intro is basically a birthright. When Ann and Nancy Wilson of the band Heart came on stage for the Kennedy Center Honors finale, their rendition of “Stairway” instantly went viral.
Robert Plant, Led Zeppelin’s famed frontman, nearly broke down in tears as the Wilson sisters were joined by late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham’s son Jason on drums. “Stairway” is an incredibly difficult song to perform and pull off live, with its anthemic energy, building climax, and intricate vocals, yet Ann took full command of the classic rock tune, and left the entire audience speechless. Her voice takes a powerful turn at 4:00, and you don’t want to miss it!
Watch the powerhouse performance below. I guarantee you’ll be standing in your seat by the end.
This is without a doubt, one of the best covers of “Stairway To Heaven” that has ever been sung by anyone.

I love pickles. I love eating pickles, making pickles, pickle juice, books about pickling and even the occasional pickle-related novelty t-shirt. I have serious thoughts on the best pickles, I have never turned down a pickle-back (although, in my day, we just called it drinking pickle juice) and take serious, serious glee in stories about people’s grandmothers keeping themselves young by using pickle brine as a skin tonic.
Well now researchers at William & Mary and the University of Maryland say that they found a connection between eating pickled foods and feeling less anxious.
The findings, which are being published in the August issue of Psychiatry Research, came after studying the dietary habits of 700 college students — an anxiety-provoking task unto itself — and learning that people partial to things like kimchi and sauerkraut suffered less social anxiety. They report the effect “was strongest amongst people that were high in neuroticism.”
There could be a self-selection bias here. Researchers stress the importance of a mind-gut connection, and say it’s likely that things like kombucha, soy, and the miso in ramen are good for your mood. And, hey, at the very least, you’ll know you’re super trendy.
Maybe you should be eating more pickles?
Imagine shopping at a large retail store, just minding your own business, when another customer mistakes you as a store employee. Usually this innocent case of mistaken identity ends in an embarrassing, but friendly laugh. But things get crazy in this story and the ending will have you cheering…
(I’m shopping at a large electronics store. I’m dressed casually in a blue graphic tee which, if you aren’t paying attention, for a second might look like what the employees wear.)
Other Customer: “I need you to find this for me.”
(I don’t respond as I am not aware that she is talking to me. I am reading the specs on the back of a box. The other customer then shoves an opened item in my hands on top of the box I am holding.)
Me: “What the h***?!”
Other Customer: “HELLO?! FIND this for me.”
Me: *hands it back to her* “I don’t work here. Work on your manners, lady.”
Other Customer: *she just stares at me for a minute* “YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!”
(I just shake my head and start walking away. She is really getting on my nerves.)
Other Customer: *following me* “STOP RIGHT THERE! You are NOT allowed to talk to paying customers that way!”
Me: “I’M a paying customer. I don’t work here! Go away!”
Other Customer: “I want to talk to your manager! You need to be fired for your attitude.”
Me: “They can’t fire me if I don’t work here. Stop following me!”
(At this point, other people are staring, laughing at the lady, and sharing sympathetic looks with me.)
Other Customer: “Oh, we’ll see about that!”
(A manager steps in as this lady has made a scene in the store and a lot of people have taken notice.)
Manager: “What seems to be the problem here?”
Other Customer: “This b**** is giving me the worst attitude! I have never been treated so badly in all my life!”
Me: “And this psycho keeps following me around thinking I work here! I keep telling her I don’t work here!”
Other Customer: “You won’t be working here if you keep up your b****y attitude!”
(The manager is clearly very uncomfortable.)
Manager: “Uh, ma’am, she doesn’t actually work here.”
Other Customer: “You need to handle this! Fire this b**** immediately!”
(The manager looks around at the customers and employees who have gathered at a safe distance and are snickering at the scene. He looks at me and shrugs.)
Manager: *to me* “Uh… You’re fired, ma’am?”
Me: *dramatically and smiling* “YOU CAN’T FIRE ME BEFORE YOU’VE EVEN HIRED ME!”
Manager: *smiling* “I’d like to offer you a job as an associate. Awesome pay and benefits?”
Me: “I’ll TAKE it!”
Manager: “You’re fired.”
Me: “NOOOOOOO! How could you?!”
(The crowd starts laughing.)
Other Customer: “Are you MOCKING me?!”
Me: “He’s just giving you what you demanded. Now quit bothering me.”
(She turned bright red and stormed out of the store without another word.)

Danielle Jacobs was born with Asperger’s and doesn’t shy away from showing all of the pain that comes with it.
Asperger syndrome is a form of autism that makes it hard for someone to interact socially. People who suffer from the disorder often have compulsive behavior and are at risk for self-harm and social isolation.
Whenever Danielle starts having an episode and it appears she might harm herself, her therapy dog Samson is right beside her, ready to help.
Samson uses his paws to move Danielle’s hands and his face to redirect her attention. After only a few times, Samson is able to permanently redirect her attention to him and she begins to calm down.
You can see Samson’s love for Danielle and his desire to keep her safe. He has been trained to recognize when his owner needs help and he is very good at his job!
https://youtu.be/0M7PuuukzxY
Danielle chose to film this moment in the hopes that her vulnerability would be able to help someone else who might be struggling with the same thing.
The man who filmed this video is much, much stronger than I could ever pretend to be.
It all starts simply enough: This guy was getting ready to eat a banana and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
But then the cameraman saw some movement that seemed strange. Intrigued by the movement, he picked up his phone and hit “record.”
Right at the :17 mark of this horrifying video, you’ll suddenly notice that something is rather abnormal about this lovely looking banana!
While what happens is indeed terrifying, you just have to love the writing at the beginning and ending of this video. When the little surprise video suddenly bursts out, and lays on its back, we all got chills, but what the cameraman wrote at the 1:15 mark had everyone laughing like crazy!
Whether or not this video is “fake,” the spider is very real indeed.
Even if this is “fake” this video just goes to show you that you should always double-check everything you eat. Make sure to clean the fruits and vegetables you get from your grocery store, and always make sure you take good care of your produce!
Have you ever had something as horrible as this poke out of something you were planning on eating before?
