Defy. Resist. Refuse to conform. This world often tries to tell us who to be. It drowns us in messages that subdue the spirit. It makes us embarrassed to speak out, to speak up, or even to unleash one of the most powerful forms of resistance: unconquerable joy. Our algorithms lie to us. The media too often drowns out the light in a constant stream of negativity. Don’t give in. There is goodness. There is joy. There are so many people who refuse to live like thermometers, merely reflecting the energy imposed upon them. They are indomitable thermostats: they set the temperature, bring the warmth, light fires in other people’s spirits, and free them from a climate of fear. See them. Be them. op: @the.side.quest.project

The kindness of strangers. The unexpected connection. The generosity of spirit that says: I see you. I’ll meet you in this moment. Here’s to those who interrupt the rush of their own lives to enter someone else’s joy. Who play along. Who make a child feel seen. Who turn an ordinary moment into a memory. Sometimes kindness is simply being willing to join someone else’s race. May we see more of that. May we celebrate it. May we be it. op: @regent_lodge_georgian_home

May we scatter our days with small acts of kindness. You may never know how deeply they change someone’s day... or even their life.

There are everyday heroes everywhere. A bystander is being praised after stepping in to protect a 12-year-old boy during a frightening encounter with a dog. According to reports, the man quickly placed himself between the child and the animal, helping prevent the situation from becoming more serious. op: @globixanews

Encourage someone. Celebrate someone. Lift someone up. In a world where so many are weighed down by life’s relentless struggles, even the smallest act of encouragement can remind someone that there is still goodness in this world and that they have the power to rise.

As I said when I visited ICE facilities and met with communities across New Jersey this week: I will not vote for another dollar for this out-of-control Department of Homeland Security and ICE.

To belittle is to be little. Never underestimate the power of a kind word, an encouraging comment, a sincere acknowledgment, or a simple expression of gratitude. Be the person who lifts up those others put down. Be the person who sees those too often overlooked. Be the person who celebrates those too rarely celebrated. The smallest act of encouragement can become someone else’s reason to keep believing in themselves.

op: @loveforlifeeua One of the most emotional moments following the powerful earthquakes in Venezuela involved Tsunami, a rescue dog who was seen receiving intravenous fluids after spending several consecutive days working through the rubble. Exhausted, he was treated by the rescue team shortly after completing another mission to search for survivors. Before becoming one of the country’s leading rescue dogs, Tsunami was a victim of abuse and abandonment. After being rescued, he underwent years of training and eventually earned international certification to take part in search-and-rescue operations in disaster-hit areas. During the earthquakes in Venezuela, Tsunami helped locate around 13 people alive beneath the rubble. The treatment shown in the video marked the end of his fieldwork and the beginning of his retirement, closing a remarkable journey dedicated to saving lives.

5-year-old boy wanted to play soccer. Instead, ICE pulled over his family, cuffed his father, took him away crying as he clung to his dad’s shackled hands. This is cruelty inflicted on a child. Kids should be in school, not in the back of an ICE van. Op: @msnownews

Step up for another. Notice someone’s struggle. Lend a hand. Give what you can. Sometimes the worst actions of one person can reveal the extraordinary goodness of so many others. Never underestimate how a small act of grace, generosity, or love can lift a spirit, restore hope, and remind someone of the goodness that still surrounds us. May we see more of this. May we do more of this. May we show up for one another. Op: Goodable

Trump wants to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America,” but I’d rather see every hospital shuttered by his cruel policies renamed the Donald Trump Memorial Hospital. We need a president focused on our healthcare and families—not his own ego.

I was in Israel when the horrific attacks carried out by Hamas started on Saturday. My team and I are now safe, but like many we are shaken, angered, and heartbroken by the hundreds killed, the thousands injured, those taken hostage, and all who are directly affected by these sickening terrorist attacks. After this experience, more than ever, I am committed to working with my colleagues in the Senate to continue supporting Israel’s security and ensuring stability in the region — and I hope one day soon, a long-term and just peace in the region.

Here’s to those who prioritize people over the prize. Who notice when someone needs help. Who stop amidst the hustle, the striving, even the competition, to offer aid and support. There will always be another point to win, another match to play, another finish line to cross. How we treat each other along the way is a measure of a victory far more important. May we never become so focused on winning that we fail to notice someone who needs us. May we compete fiercely and still care deeply. That is sportsmanship. That is humanity. That is winning. op: @sports_universe4u

This is a dark day for our democracy. Todd Blanche has been confirmed as Attorney General—but let’s be clear: he was not confirmed to serve the American people or uphold the Constitution. He was confirmed to be Donald Trump’s personal lawyer. He will choose Trump’s lies over the law. but this is not the end. We do not surrender. We fight. We fight to hold him accountable. We fight to put Democrats in a position to defend the rule of law. This is a setback—not a surrender.
