Dinosaurs! What’s not to love? I just watched the original Jurassic series last month! And as a child, those trips to the Peabody Museum, and the ability to look at the Brontosaurus skeleton? Simply breathtaking!
Today we celebrate Dinosaur Day! We honor those mighty creatures of the past.
These positive news stories will warm your heart and cause you to be grateful for the people in our lives making a difference. Let’s get started on this journey!
- Building Futures, Brick by Brick
Atlanta has opened a new Workforce Career Center. This type of center offers trade education and job placement, empowering the area’s community. This story was provided by CityBiz. As a strong supporter of the trades and trade education, these stories encourage me. (My grandson, Jacob, is headed to a trade school in September for Automotive Mechanics.)
- The Wolves Are Back
In Yellowstone National Park, a study reported by the Smithsonian Magazine indicates that the reintroduction of wolves has caused a flourishing of yellow aspens. The restoration of these apex predators in 1995 appears to have kept the plant-eating elk herd in check, allowing for the trees to grow.
- Heat, Heart, and Humanity
In the midst of this terrible heat we have been having this summer, Sunny Skyz shared the photo of this officer mowing this resident’s lawn just to help out. In full uniform, no less!
- 35 Years of Gratitude
Singer and songwriter Elton John celebrates 35 years of sobriety. The 78-year-old. People shared his Instagram post of gratitude and his desire to help others find strength in moving ahead.
- A Hand That Held On
Following a car crash, this man could not free the passenger, but he sat there holding the woman’s hand until help arrived. Sunny Skyz shared this compassionate story of the comfort brought to this woman trapped in the car.
- DNA Defense Gets a Makeover
A new molecule has been developed to make life better. Good News Network shares the story of scientists who have developed a chemical shield that stops DNA damage from triggering disease, marking a “paradigm shift” in preventative care and future health.
- And the final “feel good” story is brought to us via video from the station, 6ABC. The video shares how a Pottstown farm offers sanctuary and safety for older horses.
That’s it for today!
Dinosaur Day is more than fossils. Let’s remember these amazing creatures!
