Who do you trust?

[Kathryn Jean Lopez @kathrynlopez]

do you know someone in a nursing home? a hospital? who lives alone or might be feeling lonely? give the gift of your presence. If you can't be physically present, give a call. It can mean so much more than you realize. #homilytweet (#GrandparentsDay) Also, I'll add: #SendMoreMail

Men in their 20s are present at both…though probably lowest demographic at either.

@gchristiemd Did NFP. 5 pregnancies (lost 3), unable to conceive after age 39. Was able to be a living kidney donor at age 62 in part because I had never been on any long-term medication (including hormonal, birth control). Glad NFP taught me how to read my own body.

@SocioGame @SteveSkojec Hardly what I’d call a masterwork 😂 still…perhaps Tolkien and the 1979 Ralph Bakshi attempt 🤦‍♀️

[Tricia MamaBuzz Kent @TMKent]

@SocioGame @SteveSkojec Like with all masterworks it invites interpretation, but sure would like to see someone with with a passion for the source material at least attempt to bring the original to life.

One year ago, a woman whose home was hit by a landslide during Hurricane Helene and was denied by BOTH insurance and FEMA, received an unexpected visit.

Over 30+ Amish carpenters drove down from Pennsylvania, and rebuilt her home for free...

...in ONE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@MickeyDangerez Delivery drivers don’t provide cash change …it’s dangerous to have it on their person…(many delivery vehicles say so write on the vehicle). You are expected to have the cash if that’s how you are tipping. It’s not you…also they are used to many accents in Charlotte.

@LottaJacarandas @FullAsMuchHeart * shared

@LottaJacarandas @FullAsMuchHeart 🤦‍♀️
know … it was used in the prior post.
S …it may be common knowledge among some docents, but not officially disseminated information used among the group in tours.
(to imply a modification of the common understanding term because X has limits)

[The Crown Club 👑 @CrownClubCLT]

Oh shit… they don’t have a plan.

[Tricia MamaBuzz Kent @TMKent]

@FullAsMuchHeart Yes - Different tour guides also have different experiences that might not be “shared”

[Tricia MamaBuzz Kent @TMKent]

@MickeyDangerez @smokeyvalleymtn I’ve lived in East Charlotte my whole adult life (40 + yrs) Situational awareness is necessary (and a locked door on an apartment) but they should be safe 🙏🏼

@OrevaZSN Lots of medical reasons. Vital if you’re traveling with meds that must be refrigerated like insulin. (Did my husbands hemodialysis in a hotel room last year).

In 2020, the world fell silent.

Cities emptied. Borders closed. Families were separated. Millions of people found themselves alone, wondering when life would ever feel normal again.

While much of the world searched for hope, one of Hollywood's most beloved actors quietly picked up his phone.

Sam Neill wasn't promoting a movie.

He wasn't chasing headlines.

Instead, he walked out onto his farm in New Zealand and invited the world to spend a few peaceful minutes with him.

He introduced everyone to Peggy the duck, who quickly became an internet favorite. Charlie Pickering waddled around the farm as if he owned the place. Helena Bonham Carter grazed peacefully in the fields, while Jeff Goldblum the ram and Michael Fassbender the rooster added their own unique personalities. There was even Bryce Dallas Howard, his rescue chicken, who became known as his loyal "guard chicken."

The names made people laugh.

The moments made them stay.

There were no scripts.

No expensive cameras.

No carefully planned productions.

Just Sam talking to his animals, reading poetry, sharing stories, singing the occasional song, and reminding millions that even during the darkest days, life could still be beautiful.

For people trapped inside their homes, those simple videos became something to look forward to.

A few minutes of calm.

A few minutes of laughter.

A few minutes where the world didn't feel quite so heavy.

Years later, Sam Neill revealed that he had been diagnosed with stage 3 blood cancer.

During treatment, he wrote his memoir and spoke openly about what mattered most.

It wasn't fame.

It wasn't awards.

It was his family.

His friends.

His vineyard.

His animals.

And the simple privilege of waking up to another ordinary day.

The man who spent decades helping audiences escape through unforgettable films ended up creating one of his most meaningful performances without ever stepping onto a movie set.

He simply opened the gate to his farm, introduced the world to his animals, and reminded millions that hope doesn't always arrive with grand gestures

@MickeyDangerez Prayers for you. Your advocate is your caseworker. I hope you soon get to enjoy the beauty of Charlotte.
