Introduction

Hello everybody and welcome to my blog, I am going to first tell you the meaning and purpose behind this blog. I created this blog for the simple fact of sharing good news and events in people’s lives, because I feel there are millions of things that happen to people that are good that don’t get shared enough. When I mean share good news and events I mean (accomplishments, good deeds, new job, new car, new house, etc.), but most importantly I want people to share love and respect on this blog. When you see a post that sounds great don’t hesitate to congratulate that person on what they posted and you never know somebody might do the same to you. I just hope that this blog gets real big and everybody even people across the world will share their news and events and we can at least all be a little closer to sharing love and peace to each other.

Rules

1. No disrespectful posts or comments that will offend anybody in anyway, and if you do post things that are disrespectful that post or comment will get deleted and you will get a message from me explaining why I deleted it.

2. I know not everybody shares the same religion but please keep the religious posts or comments to yourself. It is not because I don’t like religion because I do but it is because not everybody on this post will have the same religion to you and religion is a touchy subject to a lot of people and will cause arguments and fights so I suggest you don’t post that here.

3. When coming to the blog you can become a follower but if you’re a follower you will not have the privilege of posting ads. So if you just want to view posts then that is fine and you can remain a follower but if you want to post your own posts or comments you have to message me with your email address so I can send you a request to be a contributor of the blog.

4. When first joining the blog everybody is required to comment at least two posts just to get things started and if you’ve not done so you will get a message from me reminding you to do so.

5. Last but not least have fun show love and happiness and respect to each other. Let us all show people that there are more good things then bad things out there, let us prove the news wrong and show everybody that there are more good people out there then you think.

Homeless man with 'golden voice' lights up Web, gets job offers


He's now known on the Web as the man with the golden voice. But before that, he was known as a guy standing on the side of the road with a sign - just like many other homeless people.
The man with the golden voice, Ted Williams, is an internet sensation. And apparently, his fame may have landed him a pretty good gig: CNN affiliate WEWS reported that the Cleveland Cavaliers have offered Williams a job and a house.
Williams' story is the epitome of how dreams can come true in the internet age. And practically overnight.
His story was first reported in the Columbus Dispatch; a photographer drove up to Williams on the side of the road and videotaped him as he held a sign that said in part, "I have a God given gift of voice." The photographer wanted him to prove it to earn some cash, and boy, did Williams deliver. He rattled off, in a James Earl Jones-esque voice, what seemed like a perfect radio station tease.
The story exploded from there. From all over the internet, including on the message board Reddit, people began tracking his whereabouts and trying to offer him jobs. That led to radio interviews and even an interview with CBS's "Early Show" today.
Oh, and did we mention that the video of him speaking for the Dispatch reporter has gotten (as we write this) more than 4.5 million hits in just two days? It's also the top viral video, according to ViralVideoChart.com, which tracks the rate of shares and clicks on videos.
