The way out of the conflict? The way out of the conflict is for Russia to leave Ukraine. That's the way out of the conflict." -Sanna Marin Former prime minister of Finland Do you agree with her?😊

Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07

"My name's Raymond. I'm 73. I work the parking lot at St. Joseph's Hospital. Minimum wage, orange vest, a whistle I barely use. Most people don't even look at me. I'm just the old man waving cars into spaces. But I see everything. Like the black sedan that circled the lot every morning at 6 a.m. for three weeks. Young man driving, grandmother in the passenger seat. Chemotherapy, I figured. He'd drop her at the entrance, then spend 20 minutes hunting for parking, missing her appointments. One morning, I stopped him. "What time tomorrow?" "6:15," he said, confused. "Space A-7 will be empty. I'll save it." He blinked. "You... you can do that?" "I can now," I said. Next morning, I stood in A-7, holding my ground as cars circled angrily. When his sedan pulled up, I moved. He rolled down his window, speechless. "Why?" "Because she needs you in there with her," I said. "Not out here stressing." He cried. Right there in the parking lot. Word spread quietly. A father with a sick baby asked if I could help. A woman visiting her dying husband. I started arriving at 5 a.m., notebook in hand, tracking who needed what. Saved spots became sacred. People stopped honking. They waited. Because they knew someone else was fighting something bigger than traffic. But here's what changed everything, A businessman in a Mercedes screamed at me one morning. "I'm not sick! I need that spot for a meeting!" "Then walk," I said calmly. "That space is for someone whose hands are shaking too hard to grip a steering wheel." He sped off, furious. But a woman behind him got out of her car and hugged me. "My son has leukemia," she sobbed. "Thank you for seeing us." The hospital tried to stop me. "Liability issues," they said. But then families started writing letters. Dozens. "Raymond made the worst days bearable." "He gave us one less thing to break over." Last month, they made it official. "Reserved Parking for Families in Crisis." Ten spots, marked with blue signs. And they asked me to manage it. But the best part? A man I'd helped two years ago, his mother survived, came back. He's a carpenter. Built a small wooden box, mounted it by the reserved spaces. Inside? Prayer cards, tissues, breath mints, and a note, "Take what you need. You're not alone. -Raymond & Friends" People leave things now. Granola bars. Phone chargers. Yesterday, someone left a hand-knitted blanket. I'm 73. I direct traffic in a hospital parking lot. But I've learned this: Healing doesn't just happen in operating rooms. Sometimes it starts in a parking space. When someone says, "I see your crisis. Let me carry this one small piece." So pay attention. At the grocery checkout, the coffee line, wherever you are. Someone's drowning in the little things while fighting the big ones. Hold a door. Save a spot. Carry the weight no one else sees. It's not glamorous. But it's everything." Let this story reach more hearts.... Credit: Mary Nelson

My school asked me to post this project and we have raised about $1k so far, but a long ways to go. Please help me RT and sprinkle if you can. We would like a book vending machine to support literacy and PBIS. donorschoose.org/project/promot…

I donated a dollar, can you? The more donors there are the more likely this will fund and yes one dollar at a time works!

Vaccines are extremely protective, but we can't forget the importance of multiple layers of protection—especially for people who aren't vaccinated and who remain vulnerable to Covid. Masks in specific situations, better ventilation, distancing & good hygiene can still save lives.

Consider supporting Ms. McKay, a rarely funded #STEM teacher! For she is looking forward to incorporate 3d printing for ongoing hands on learning, and a supplement for the loss of #art 😱 Please share and donate if you can. @BestedGames @YNB @craignewmark donorschoose.org/project/stem-p…

Consider supporting Mrs. Zaynab Robinson's class. $103 is still needed to supply her students Kinderbots. It will be an engaging way to help her students transition to kindergarten and foster the concept of engineering & #STEM. @BestedGames @UpBrainery donorschoose.org/project/coding…
