In 2014, while filming a movie, Jackie Chan discovered that a group of Mongolian locals knew every word to 'Rolling in the Deep' by heart... Even though they didn’t speak English.
This beautiful moment was never part of the script.
A nurse in Texas sang “How Great Thou Art” while feeding her patient.
The patient's daughter captured the moment as her mother was smiling at the nurse singing.
Harry & Meghan lied about the Royal Family for money & when Prince Philip was on his deathbed. Harry refused to go to his grandfather’s memorial to spite the Queen over his security. They collected an award for fighting racism inside the Royal Family, then years later said ‘We never said they were racist’. They have publicly attacked William & Catherine countless times and tried to damage their reputations & marriage , they had filmed more attacks and lies for Netflix as Queen Elizabeth II was herself dying of bone cancer and grieving the loss of husband, which they fully intended for her to see but she passed away before its release. I could go on, but needless to say most people see them for the duplicitous, lying, spiteful and nasty pair that they are and their utter hypocrisy of them somehow being the victims, when it was they, who were the instigators of far more cruelty directed at others.
“We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love... and then we return home.” 🥺🕊️
— Queen Elizabeth II

Worth knowing the human details behind this, Betty Ong wasn't even supposed to be on Flight 11, she picked up an extra shift to earn money for a Hawaii vacation with her sister, and because it wasn't her usual route, she was assigned to the rear galley instead of first/business class, the exact section where the hijackers were seated.
That placement, purely incidental, is what let her make the call undetected while the attack was unfolding just feet away.
Using an Airfone at the back of the plane, she reached American Airlines' reservations center in Cary, North Carolina, and calmly relayed that the cockpit wasn't responding, that passenger Daniel Lewin and flight attendants Karen Martin and Barbara Arestegui had been stabbed, and that she believed Mace had been sprayed in the cabin.
Working alongside fellow flight attendant Madeline "Amy" Sweeney, she identified the specific seat numbers of three hijackers, information that let the FBI immediately pull passport and identity records once the names became known.
The ripple effect of that single call was massive, it triggered the first-ever nationwide FAA airspace shutdown in US history, as officials scrambled to respond to a threat they didn't yet fully understand.
Her final words on the call, "Pray for us. Pray for us," not just for herself, but for everyone on board.
Her ground contact, Nydia Gonzalez, testified later that Ong showed no fear at all across the entire 23-minute call.
The 9/11 Commission formally declared her a hero for her composure and the intelligence she provided under conditions almost no one could imagine staying calm through.
Repost so others know the full story of this hero.

The King has laid out his position on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex returning to the UK in a letter to ‘senior stakeholders’, including the government, military and Lord Lieutenancies, from his Lord Chamberlain.
In it he makes clear that the ‘Sandringham agreement’ still stands - they are private individuals and are no longer working members of the Royal Family.
@JustineBateman I got a free scone at my local bakery because I wore my breakfast club tshirt! I am a huge John Hughes fan. Grew up in NYC loving life in the 80’s! I still reminisce about my childhood and teenage years.
The feeling of losing my Aunt Dolly is beyond what feels right to share. Our most sacred moments were private and they’ll stay there behind the stage, beneath the glamour & between our hearts.
What I KNOW is Dolly would want me to feel it, write a song about it, and then continue on and be strong. I have an angel by my side. I always have. One of our last conversations was about music and metamorphosis. 🦋
I will always love her and want to make her proud. My heart breaks for the world, her family and friends who will miss her deeply. We’re in this loss together and we will see her in all of the most beautiful things. 💖 @dollyparton
Rocky and his comeback. The full story. One of the most incredible comebacks I've ever seen.
His story should give us all huge hope in life if any of us ever feel down.
A longer watch but one that will fill you with joy!
@Ryan_Daigler Be very careful who you choose as a partner. It took me 25 years to realize my partner is a covert narcissist. I thought it was just his untreated depression and adhd making him an a hole. stress landed me in the ER recently. My body couldn’t take it anymore. lucky to be alive.
