l Started a New Job and Discovered My Boss Was My Longtime Rival

After months without a job, I finally got an offer from my dream company. Excitement quickly turned to dread, though, when I saw who my new boss was—my old college rival, Tyler Wilson, the guy who’d made my college years miserable.

My roommate, Shanti, pushed me to open the acceptance email, and for a moment, I felt thrilled. But my stomach dropped when I read I’d be working under Tyler. On my first day, he ignored me and made a pointed comment about my tattoos, reminding me of his arrogant college self. Frustrations built as I emailed him about necessary equipment upgrades, but he ignored me—until I discovered he’d canceled my order. I decided to confront him directly, storming into his office, ready to quit if it meant dealing with his pettiness.

But then, I overheard him in a meeting, advocating for me and demanding my equipment order be approved. When I confronted him, Tyler admitted he’d been trying to shield me from biases in the company, and confessed he’d once had feelings for me but handled it poorly back in college. We laughed over the misunderstanding, and he asked me out to dinner as an apology. For the first time, I saw a side of Tyler I hadn’t expected, and it left me wondering—maybe, just maybe, people really could change.

For the first time, baby hears his mother’s voice

Back in 2017, a mom named Christy Keane shared what is believed to be one of the most heartwarming and most emotional videos we’ve ever seen, that of her baby girl hearing her voice for the first time ever.

As explained in the caption of the video which has been seen over 111 million times, baby Charly was born profoundly deaf and she had never heard a single sound. So, when she got her hearing aid and was able to learn what her mom’s voice sounds like, Charly started crying tears of joy. Her expression was enough for her parents to understand that she could now feel the world around her as a whole.

We are so glad that this precious moment was caught on tape.

It is so awesome that the advance of technology allows different aids to be produced and used by people with certain impairments and disabilities and to facilitate their lives to the extent they are able to function independently and be valuable members of the society.
