HAPPY TUESDAY. I AM CHRISTINE PULLARA AND THIS
IS AT LANE CLOSURES A AND
COMPANY.
COMPANY.
COMPANY. I TRY TO START WITH NEWS YOU
CAN USE AND A LITTLE
POSITIVITY.
POSITIVITY. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS GOING
TO USE AND I GOT A TEXT FROM MY
DEAR FRIEND SANDRA.
I WILL CALL THESE TUESDAY
TRUTHS.
TRUTHS.
TRUTHS. ATTACK THE DAY WITH ENTHUSIASM.
STAY POSITIVE.
STAY POSITIVE. BE THANKFUL.
BE THANKFUL. LEARN, IMPROVE, GROW.
BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS,
REPLACE HAVE TO WITH GET TO.
FOCUS ON SOLUTIONS.
CONTROL THE CONTROLLABLES.
BE YOUR BEST.
I LIKE THAT.
I LIKE THEM ALL.
I WILL STRIVE TO DO THAT TODAY
AND EVERY DAY FOR THAT MATTER.
AS SOMEONE WHO IS THE BEST IN
MY BOOK, SHE'S INCREDIBLE,
SHE'S MY BFF, THE ONE AND ONLY
CARA KNEER WITH ALL GOOD
STORIES TO BRIGHTEN YOUR DAY.
HOW ABOUT THAT FOR TIMING?
I LITERALLY JUST GOT THIS TEXT
FROM SANDRA.
FROM SANDRA. >> I LOVE THAT.
SO GREAT.
SO GREAT.
SO GREAT. WHAT A WAY TO START OUR TUESDAY
OFF.
OFF.
OFF. IT'S
OFF. IT'S SOCIAL MEDIA DAY TOO.
SHOULD WE GET STARTED WITH SOME
IT'S ALL GOOD STORIES?
>> YES!
>> YES!
>> YES! >> I WILL TELL YOU HOW TO
CELEBRATE AT THE END OF THE
SEGMENT.
SEGMENT.
SEGMENT. I THINK TRENT WILL TAKE US HOME
WITH SOME SOCIAL MEDIA DAY.
LET'S GET TO A STORY THAT
STARTED IN OUR BACKYARD.
IT'S A VIRAL POST AS IT SHOULD
BE BECAUSE IT IS ABOUT TWO FINE
YOUNG MEN.
YOUNG MEN. WE WILL GET TO THEM.
THAT'S NOT THE POINT OF THE
STORY, THAT THEY'RE FINE, BUT
THEY ARE.
THEY ARE.
THEY ARE. A MOTHER WAS DRIVING HOME.
HER DAUGHTER HAD TO USE THE
RESTROOM AND COULDN'T MAKE IT.
SHE STOPPED AT A SUBWAY AND
SAID I HAVE TO USE THE
BATHROOM.
BATHROOM.
BATHROOM. PLEASE.
PLEASE.
PLEASE. THE WOMAN SAYS I AM SO SORRY.
YOU HAVE TO PAY TO USE THE
FACILITIES.
FACILITIES. SHE SAID OH I DON'T HAVE MY
CARD.
CARD.
CARD. THESE YOUNG MEN SAY WE'LL BUY A
COOKIE.
COOKIE.
COOKIE. GO USE THE BATHROOM.
SO SHE STRUCK UP A CONVERSATION
WITH THEM.
WITH THEM. THEY'RE UGA FOOTBALL PLAYERS.
THEIR NAMES ARE LATAVIA AND
JALON.
JALON.
JALON. GO
JALON. GO DOGS.
GO DOGS.
GO DOGS. THEY SAID OF COURSE THEY WOULD
DO THAT.
DO THAT.
DO THAT. WHY WOULDN'T THEY?
ONE OF THE MOMS WAS QUOTED AS
SAYING I RAISED HIM TO DO GOOD
IN FRONT OF OTHERS BUT ALSO
WHEN NOBODY ELSE IS WATCHING.
I THINK THAT'S JUST THE KEY OF
BEING A KIND PERSON.
ALWAYS DO GOOD BUT DO IT WHEN
NOBODY ELSE IS WATCHING.
THIS POST WENT VIRAL AS IT
SHOULD HAVE AND PEOPLE ARE
SHARING IT.
SHARING IT. SHE SAID SHE COULDN'T HAVE BEEN
MORE GRATEFUL.
MORE GRATEFUL. I AM SURE AVERY WAS TOO.
THERE ARE A FEW WAYS TO
CELEBRATE SOCIAL MEDIA DAY.
ONE IS TO RECONNECT WITH
SOMEBODY YOU HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO
IN A LONG TIME.
THEN SHARE THAT WITH SOCIAL
MEDIA WORLD USING
OCIALMEDIACHALLENGE.
OCIALMEDIACHALLENGE. TRY THAT OUT TODAY.
>> I LOVE THAT.
WE TRY TO FOCUS ON THE
POSITIVES.
POSITIVES. THE SEGMENT IS CALLED "IT'S ALL
GOOD" AFTER ALL.
IT REALLY JUST TAKES A LITTLE
BIT, A LITTLE ACT OF KINDNESS I
FEEL CAN REALLY JUST CREATE
THIS SNOWBALL EFFECT.
THAT'S WHAT WE LOVE TO
HIGHLIGHT HERE.
HIGHLIGHT HERE. JUST SOMETHING THAT SEEMS NOT
THAT BIG IN THE WHOLE GRAND
SCHEME OF THINGS.
BUT THAT ACT OF KINDNESS GOES A
LONG WAY.
LONG WAY.
LONG WAY. THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD TRY AND
DO, INSPIRE ONE ANOTHER TO FIND
LITTLE WAYS TO HELP AND MAKE
SOMEBODY'S DAY BRIGHTER.
I LOVE THAT.
GOOD JOB, CARA.
>> YES.
>> YES.
>> YES. WELL I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THE
STORY.
STORY.
STORY. I
STORY. I LOVE WHEN PEOPLE SPEAK UP IN
THE MOMENT AND HELP SOMEBODY IN
NEED.
NEED.
NEED. THIS NEXT STORY I WANT TO GET
TO QUICKLY.
TO QUICKLY. THIS IS ABOUT A BLACK BROADWAY
STAR SHARING HIS PRIDE AFTER
PURCHASING A HOME BUILT IN 1820
BY SLAVES.
BY SLAVES. EVERY TIME I READ THIS STORY, I
CRY, BECAUSE IT IS SO POWERFUL
AND SO POIGNANT.
THIS BROADWAY STAR ROBERT
HARTWELL, I WANT TO READ THE
QUOTE HE PUT ON HIS INSTAGRAM
AFTER PURCHASING THIS HOME.
HE SAW IT IN A MAGAZINE CALLED
THE REALTOR AND CLOSED JUNE 19.
HIS QUOTE SAYS I WISH I COULD
HAVE TOLD MY ANCESTORS WHEN
THEY WERE BREAKING THEIR BACKS
TO BUILD THIS THAT 200 YEARS
LATER A FREE GAY BLACK MAN
WOULD OWN IT.
WE ARE BUILDING OUR OWN TABLES.
I JUST THINK IT IS SO
BEAUTIFUL.
BEAUTIFUL. YOU CAN FOLLOW HIM ON
INSTAGRAM.
INSTAGRAM. SORRY.
SORRY.
SORRY. YOU CAN FOLLOW HIM ON
INSTAGRAM.
INSTAGRAM. HE IS GOING TO RESTORE THIS
HOME.

HE CLOSED ON IT ON JUNETEENTH
AND WANTED TO CELEBRATE WITH
US.

I AM GOING TO FOLLOW HIM ON
INSTAGRAM AND SEE HIS
RESTORATION.

THAT WITH US.

LIFE.
