Okay, it’s Monday and, I’m feeling ok about things. Let’s get this post stawted! (I meant to spell it that way).
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not. Andre Gide
Ah, let us continue this positive experience.
A Nevada man and an Iranian are teaming up:
Now, the two are planning to reunite next month to ride their bikes across Iran in a symbolic gesture of peace.
Their project, Wheels of Peace, will begin with each of them visiting schools in his respective country and sharing his experiences of finding friendship with someone who might otherwise be considered an enemy.
The children will be asked to write letters to students in the other country.
Very cool.
Here at DALANEL, I love a good story. And, I always want to hear from my readers. Problem is, I never actually set something up for you to share your story.
Welp.
It’s time to share your story! I am always looking for good news but I can’t find them all. And so, if you know of a local hero or feel good story or a testimony or anything like that, this is your chance to be heard. I get a decent amount of views per day. People will see what you have to say.
So, what you can do is comment or send me a message via “Contact Dante” page. Now, if there is a story already published on the internet, hit me with the link. If this story is yet to be published, perhaps messaging me would be better to share all of the details.
What happens then? I will publish your news in one of two ways:
The news does not have to be extraordinary. If you feel like this story can change the perspective of a certain situation for the better, shout it out. Tell the world what good is going on. You never know; you can encourage someone else. Even the littlest thing can stir something in someone. Plant the positive seed.
In other news, there is actually another page on the blog that is new. It’s called “My Book” and that’s a great place to read up on the latest on my book. What is it about? Where can you buy it? What discounts are available? It’s all on that page.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you. And thanks for helping DALANEL be a source for good news!

If you see someone without a helmet, it doesn’t mean they don’t have a helmet. Introducing “Invisible Bike Helmets” which are just mini helmets. The catch? They act as air bags. There’s a video.
Most of the news this past week were more on the good side. And that’s weird. Time to start looking for more sources.
A hotel helped a woman recover a valuable ring that her late grandmother gave to her. Yay.
A student who struggles with stammering made a nice speech thanks to a special “Hollywood” remedy. His stammering was so bad, that just by him being able to make a speech actually brought people to tears, including folks who bullied him. The link has a video of it all unfolding.
Ah, Saturday. The end of the week. And, for the fifth day in a row, DALANEL set a new viewing record. In fact, these past five days alone had more views than my best month in July 2013. November, if it keeps this pace, will absolutely destroy my viewing graph. If you use WordPress, you know what I mean. All of these little columns and then all of a sudden, there’s this huge column.
Anyway, let’s get through the post.
