It’s spooky season—a time for fun, scares, and a bit of darkness. During this time of year, we expect to see creepy decorations everywhere. It’s not yet time for the cheerful holiday season.
However, just because Halloween is near doesn’t mean we can’t show kindness. One Halloween fan shared this message in a TikTok video that has since gone viral.
Salena Webb loves Halloween. She is a mother of four from South Carolina, and like many others, she celebrates by decorating her yard with Halloween items. Salena created a whole graveyard scene in her front yard, complete with ghosts, spiderwebs, pumpkins, a witch, tombstones, and skeletons carrying a casket. It took a lot of time to set up the display. But when her neighbor came to ask her to take it down, she agreed.
Her neighbor asked her to remove some decorations to make things easier for his elderly father.
Salena shared the moment her neighbor visited her to make the request in a TikTok video. In the video, the neighbor explains, “Hey, I know you’re celebrating Halloween. My dad just got diagnosed with lung cancer. He thinks the decorations are a bit scary.” He then points to the graveyard scene and asks, “Would you mind taking just the casket out?”
Salena felt sympathetic right away. Since her neighbor’s dad often spends time in his garage, which faces her yard, she understood why removing the casket was important. “I didn’t want to be a reminder of what could happen if he doesn’t beat cancer,” she told Insider. “I didn’t want to add stress to someone else’s life.”
Salena removed the casket and gave the skeletons badminton rackets instead. She moved the more scary decorations to her backyard. “I was a little sad at first,” Salena wrote in her TikTok caption, “But I realized that taking away the casket wouldn’t hurt me, but it might help my neighbor feel better as he deals with this news. Kindness is free, and compassion goes a long way.”
Many people praised Salena for her kindness. She posted the video and asked her followers what they would have done in her situation. While some said they wouldn’t have taken down their decorations, many praised Salena for her compassion.
“Now this is what being a good neighbor is all about. Kindness doesn’t cost anything. Thank you!” one user commented.
Another person wrote, “This was beautifully handled. The world needs more people like you! God bless you!”
Salena’s neighbor also appreciated her gesture. After she took down the casket, she brought him a card and some balloons. Even though there was a language barrier between them, she could tell he was thankful. He told her, “You’re good people.”
The Internet is losing it over this hidden leopard in the snow picture
Diverse forms of imagery captivate our appreciation, with the adage that a picture speaks a thousand words often holding true. The image we present below is a testament to this notion, encapsulating something deeply cherished, the remarkable abilities of animals.
When contemplating camouflage, the initial image that springs to mind is likely someone adorned in a camouflage outfit. Contrary to this common association, numerous animals possess an innate form of camouflage, allowing them to seamlessly blend into their surroundings. Despite being in plain sight, they remain elusive unless one possesses the keen eye to discern their presence.
Enter the leopard featured in the image below, devoid of any camouflage jacket or external concealment. Yet, upon first glance, the scene appears akin to any ordinary view within a National Park. A closer inspection, however, reveals the leopard masterfully concealed within the landscape. Perfectly blending with its surroundings, the leopard gazes back at the observer, camouflaged in plain sight.
As the image circulated online, it elicited astonishment from viewers discovering the hidden leopard. Initial assumptions often leaned towards a white leopard, but reality defied these expectations.
Leopards, akin to various creatures, possess this innate ability to vanish in plain view. This skill proves invaluable, facilitating their approach to prey for more frequent sustenance and shielding them from potential threats posed by other animals.
A challenge was issued on Reddit, beckoning users to uncover the concealed leopard. The online community erupted in a collective frenzy, with many still engrossed in the quest despite the post’s six-month existence.
Skeptics emerged, questioning the authenticity of the image, suspecting a potential trick of photography. In the spirit of transparency, we’ll guide you to the hidden leopard below, assuring you this is no photographic sleight of hand.
A word of caution before scrolling down: the leopard is indeed present, and its concealment is no optical illusion. Once spotted, however, you may find it impossible to overlook. Take a moment to seek it out independently before unveiling the answer below.
