7 Years Ago She Said "Yes" To Me With This $500 Fruity Pebble Of A Diamond When I Was Broke. I Make $200k Now. I Surprised Her With An Upgrade For Valentine's Day

She said to return it, that "anything else would be a downgrade" because of what this little dot means to her. So I am returning this $8k upgrade and I'm taking her to Korea and Japan this winter instead for the same price.

This should be at the top. The world needs more people who care more about the love than the price tag.

One important reason why we, as humans, love wholesome content is because it helps build and reinforce hope. Psychologists really can’t overstate just how crucial it is for us to feel like there is a chance the future will be better. Interestingly, researchers have also found a connection between hope and creativity.

After all, making something new means committing to the possibility that his unknown thing will turn out well. Positive thinking, which can be toxic in a few instances, ultimately helps keep our minds active and helps us maintain our desire to keep trying.

One important part of hope isn't just “teaching” us about the possibility that good things can happen, it’s reminding us that they have happened. Unfortunately, our brains can be a bit selective with what they remember, leading to us “conveniently” forgetting the good things we’ve gone through and just focusing on the bad.

It is important to remember that hope can be problematic in large “doses” as some people, overwhelmed by positive emotions, can start to develop unrealistic goals and expectations, which will just come to harm them in the long run. This is why real stories are important, but they need to be “tempered” with the help of a specialist, like a therapist, if a person is really going through a depressive spell.

Researchers have also established a pretty strong connection between hope and not just mental health, but physical as well. People dealing with recovery after injury and illness tend to always do better if they demonstrate or report feelings of hope, versus feelings of intermittent sadness. So when you are looking at a list of wholesome images, perhaps bookmark it for a rainy day, it could actually help.

I have a few bits of my dad's writing from after his accident. His brain damage was catastrophic, but for the first few years after he came out of his coma, he could still write a word or two. He had multiple strokes after that, and died 21 years after his accident. I lost "my dad" on the day of his accident, but I treasure each bit I have left of him from before - and after - his accident.
