It's Wednesday. Work has been painful and school is draining all of my energy. (There is a small violin playing somewhere...) So, I'm suffering from a major case of the Wednesdays! To fight the torrids of my mid-semester depression, I'm enlisting the services of MSN's Wonderful World page. I'll be chipper in no time!
This 92 year old woman just went skydiving! I'd love to believe that I'll be the type of crazy old lady who decides to surf the skies once more before I die. (I was lucky enough to go skydiving with Emily for her 20th birthday several years ago!) Maybe they offer a senior discount?
How selfless would you consider yourself? I'm all about pulling off a daily good deed and embracing the altruist in me. This woman donated one of her kidneys to her neighbor. The Kansas City neighbors were not close at first, but have developed a strong friendship - sharing car rides and meals together. The donating neighbor has been driving the donatee neighbor to dialysis appointments for over three years.
This guy won major brownie points! He spelled out a marriage proposal in an Ohio wheat field to his long time girlfriend. Then, he took her up in a plane to see it. She said no. Haha, just kidding! She said yes, obviously. ;)
At age 84, this guy got his high school diploma. He was unable to finish his degree when he was drafted to fight in World War II. Every passing moment is another chance to turn it all around, and he took advantage of that. Amen, man. Amen.
Indeed, I feel better already. :)
