Gives me hope
GivesMeHope.com is a very optimistic site. As they say theirselves: "GMH is where people share with the world their most hopeful, uplifting moments and allow others to draw strength from their experiences." 'They' and 'theirselves' are Gaby Montero and Emerson Spartz, aged 21 and 22, the founders of GMH.GMH is a response to the famous site FMyLife.com, where people share stories explaning how their days were completely ruined.
Today, I received my passport in the mail. They got my birthdate wrong. Then I picked up my birth certificate that I had sent in with the application. Turns out my parents have been celebrating my birthday on the wrong day for 16 years. FML
FML is lovely, sometimes you can't stop laughing, but it can also be a downer. GMH is only about the happy things in life, and way more positive. Let's give an example:
Today, my teacher was telling us a story about her friend's adopted son and how he got picked on for it. One day at school a boy went up to him and said, "I came from my mommy's tummy, where did you come from?" knowing the boy was adopted. His response? "I came from my mommy's heart." He was 6 years old at the time. This GMH
Loveley, isn't it? I think it's worth reading all the stories. Recently, they've opened a youtube account and I'd like to share their first video with you. It's made by Dylan Spartz (yes, brother of Emerson, the founder).
Enjoy reading Gives Me Hope!

About
Hi my name is Saskia and I'm a music-addict. I listen to music way too often, but actually I don't really care. I like sheep and apples. Rubberducks are pretty cool too. It's funny to hit your tennistrainer with a tennisball. Internet is the best thing ever invented. My friends rock. Heroes rock. Wanna be my hero? Buh-bye!Affiliates
