We'd like to introduce you to another person bringing attention to the special relationship between fathers and daughters.

Ukrainian artist Snezhana Soosh has created a series of paintings that beautifully show this amazing bond.

“I always wanted to have a tender and loving relationship with my own father, but he didn't know how to show his love, so most of the time was distant and cold," Soosh told The Huffington Post.

“I was observing other fathers with their daughters and so loved each tender moment they had together. I think I drew what I lacked and very much wanted � to feel loved and protected by my big papa." Her paintings do a beautiful job at celebrating a wonderful relationship and showing the tender side of masculinity.

Jax, a singer-songwriter with millions of followers on TikTok (@jaxwritessongs), received a text from her ex-boyfriend that was so tone-deaf, it practically demanded an audience, according to Comicsands.

For most people, getting called into work on a holiday is a nightmare. For Rebeca Gonzalez, it turned out to be a million-dollar blessing in disguise.

On Labor Day, Gonzalez, an employee at a Walmart in Los Angeles, had zero intention of working. She had plans to spend the holiday relaxing and barbecuing with her family. However, her phone rang with a request from her manager: the store was short-staffed, and they needed her for just three hours.

Procrastination usually has a cost, but for Jimmie Smith, a retired security guard from New Jersey, it almost cost him $24 million.

Smith, 68, had been buying lottery tickets in New York and New Jersey since the 1960s. However, he wasn't exactly diligent about checking them. Instead, he treated them like collectibles, stuffing them into the pockets of his shirts and stacking them in his closet, always telling himself he would "check them when I have the time."

Psychologists reveal 10 signs that someone is secretly super intelligent and may not even know it

When we think of a "genius," we often picture a mathematician scribbling formulas on a chalkboard or a tech mogul launching rockets. But according to psychologists, true intelligence isn't always about raw computing power. Often, it manifests in subtle behaviors, emotional regulation, and how a person navigates the world.

A 2025 article in Global English Editing explored the subtle ways smart people behave that don't always garner much recognition. These behaviors exhibit true levels of intelligence, and they're habits you might already be doing. The real magic lies in the secrets behind what they do that exhibits true wisdom.

Legendary Nobel Prize winning physicist explains why super smart people make dumb decisions

Richard Feynman is one of the top scientific minds in modern history. He was invited to participate in the Manhattan Project, helping develop the first atomic bomb. When the Challenger shuttle tragically exploded, it was Feynman who figured out what went wrong to prevent future NASA disasters. He was even given the Nobel Prize for his work in physics for essentially remaking the concept of quantum electrodynamics. He was also riddled with self doubt, incredibly unsure of himself, and criticized people of high intelligence.

Why was this so?
