During the hectic holiday season, it’s simple to get sucked into the shopping frenzy for our loved ones’ presents. However, some children go above and above to demonstrate their thankfulness because they genuinely get what it means to be thankful.
On a bitterly cold day last year, 10-year-old Ryan Tricks, the magician and mind reader Ryan Hicks, came upon the youngster. The child held a sign that read, “Toys For Sale For Mum’s Christmas Present,” next to his used toys. Ryan was intrigued and went up to talk to the youngster about his wonderful project.
An Unselfish Show of Love
Ryan was left dumbfounded by the small child’s response when he questioned why he was selling his toys. The youngster told how his mother made many sacrifices and worked additional hours to get him Christmas gifts. Selling his own toys to purchase a particular gift for her was how he wanted to express his gratitude. Ryan was moved by this noble and loving deed.
The youngster disclosed that his grandma, who was present in the house, knew about his scheme, but his mother was not. Even though he had some fantastic things for sale, he hadn’t sold anything after an hour and a half of standing outside.
Ryan Hicks Enters to Assist
Ryan Hicks was moved by the young boy’s story and realized he had a chance to offer assistance. When he asked how much the toys cost, he was astounded by how cheap they were. Inspired by the boy’s altruism, Ryan made the decision to intervene and have a significant impact.
Ryan gave the youngster a high five and said how much he appreciated what he had done. Then, to the young businessman’s surprise, he made an offer to purchase all of his toys. The child questioned Ryan if he was sure, looking around in disbelief. He suggested a fairly modest price of fifty pounds for all the toys after he knew it was real.
A Giving Motion
Ryan insisted on giving the youngster more toys since he didn’t want him to undervalue them. In order to make sure he wasn’t taken advantage of, he promised to pay him 100 pounds instead. The boy accepted the offer with pleasure, and asked Ryan for an embrace once he had the money. Ryan was moved to tears by their mutual warmth and friendliness.However, Ryan had one more surprise in store. Ryan wanted to make sure the youngster received something special for himself as well, as he was going above and beyond for his mother. He gave the little lad an extra hundred pounds to spend on himself as a result. For the boy, it was a tiny gesture, but it meant everything.
An Enduring Tale of Love and GratitudeThis endearing tale serves as a powerful reminder of the value of love and gratitude. It demonstrates the extraordinary extent some kids will go to in order to please their parents. The little boy’s altruism and Ryan Hicks’ kindness are both motivational examples for all of us.
Mind-Blowing Optical Illusion: Can You Spot the Hidden Horse in This Picture?
There’s a reason optical illusions are so popular around the world.
Let’s face it, who doesn’t like having a play around with perception? Who doesn’t like to be frustratingly mystified when they can’t see something others can with ease?
From time to time, we stumble across puzzles that truly leave us stumped, and part of the fun is then sharing it with others to see who can – for lack of better words – crack the code.
Well, one such image has surfaced on the web … one that has people busting their brains and scratching their scalps for an answer. See if you’re one of the lucky few who can see what most people can’t.
The picture above is a classic illusion; one that at first glance is as confusing as it is difficult to decipher. Of course, the great thing about such optical tricks is that once you’ve solved them, you can’t be fooled again.
The image in question hides an image within an image. So, when you look at it, what do you see?
Do you see a frog? Do you see a horse? Do you see both?
If it’s one of the first two, then we have something to tell you. Both are in the image, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to make them both out.
The horse
Still don’t see it? OK, we’ll give you a hint.
The image doesn’t contain an entire horse, just the head and neck.
Found if yet? Still no?
Right … have a look over by the lily pad – it has a rather odd texture, wouldn’t you agree?
Still haven’t found it? Well … the frog’s body is the horses head. Bear that in mind and try again. Good luck!
Did you see both the horse and the frog without needing help?
If you’ve managed to see both, share this article on Facebook and challenge your friends and family to a bit of fun!
Almost everyone sees the frog in the image … but finding the horse is where things get tricky. Have a closer look.
