He drives a school bus in Dallas, Texas. But the kids on his route call him something else — Dad. Every morning before the sun is fully up, Curtis Jenkins pulls his yellow school bus to the curb and waits. Not just to pick up kids. To see them. For seven years, Curtis noticed things other people missed. The little girl who folded her paper lunch bag perfectly every day but left it on the bus — because there was nothing inside. The boy whose shoes were too small. The kids who got on quiet, eyes down, carrying weight no child should have to carry alone. So Curtis did something simple. He made his bus a community. He gave every child a job — a greeter, an assistant, a "police officer" keeping order in the aisles. Every morning he'd call out, "We're going to care about each other and love everybody, right?" And 50 small voices would answer back. But it didn't stop there. Over the years, Curtis spent thousands of dollars of his own money — money he saved by skipping his own Christmas gifts with his wife — on birthday cards, bikes, backpacks, turkeys at Thanksgiving, and 70 hand-wrapped Christmas presents. He didn't buy random gifts. He asked each child what they wanted. Then he went and got exactly that. No donation page. No announcement. No cameras. When the story finally got out and people questioned how a bus driver could afford it, Curtis just smiled. "It doesn't take money. It takes discipline." But here's the part that will stay with you. When a reporter asked the kids what they loved most about Curtis — not one of them mentioned the gifts. A fifth grader named Ethan, whose parents had divorced when he was four, looked up and said quietly: "He's the father that I always wanted. In some ways, I wish my dad could have been like that." Curtis heard it. Didn't flinch. Just nodded. "That's the paycheck right there," he said later. "If I can get that, you can keep the money." He wasn't looking for a medal. He wasn't going viral on purpose. He was just a man who decided, every single morning, that his bus would be the safest place those kids walked into all day. Sometimes the person who changes a child's life forever isn't a teacher or a coach or a counselor. Sometimes it's the person behind the wheel of a yellow bus at 7 a.m. — who chose to show up, and chose to care, when nobody was asking him to. Tag someone who needs to read this today. 💛

@RGIII Translation: if your child is murdered, rejoice that GOD removed them and for a reason that you're too fucking stupid to comprehend.

Trust God. God removes people or things from your life for a reason. God heard conversations you did not and has greater in store for you.

@MattWalshBlog Matt, your story is meaningless because we don't know how it ends. Someone 80 can post what you did, not someone under 50. You could easily end up divorced and broke because of your decisions.

One of the problems is that when you wait for years to have kids, trying to accumulate enough wealth so that you can raise children “comfortably” or whatever, your marriage becomes frail and brittle. You haven’t allowed yourselves to be tested. You haven’t met any resistance. The union atrophies. You get bored. Then one serious challenge comes along and you fall apart. You weren’t ready for it. My wife and I have been together 15 years, started out broke. Six kids and a decade and a half later, we’ve been tried and tested a million times. We’ve been through the fire together. Problems come along and we deal with them. It’s nothing we haven’t seen before. Now we have the confidence of people who’ve been through the wringer. We have a sense of shared experience and shared achievement. We built this life together. We both belong here. That’s the great benefit of getting married and starting a family young. Get in on the ground floor with each other. Start at the bottom hand in hand.

Some kids you never forget… and AriAndo is one of them. Six years ago in Houston, Texas, AriAndo took on our 50 Yard Challenge and not only did he complete it, he did it with a level of dedication that still sticks with me to this day. I remember him having back-to-back baseball games… most kids would’ve called it a day after that. But not AriAndo. He would finish those games, then go right out and mow lawns—serving others, putting in the work, and showing what true commitment looks like at a young age. That’s the kind of mindset you can’t teach… that’s built from within. He didn’t just complete 50 lawns, he showed consistency, discipline, and heart every step of the way. I think it’s time for an update… I’d love to see how he’s doing now. But if I had to guess, I’d say he’s still doing what he’s always done—working hard, staying focused, and excelling in life. Because when you start serving early…great things tend to follow.

アメリカ人はもっと、日本人を下に見てるのかと思ってた。 それも仕方ないと思ってたけど、実際は全然違った。 彼らは僕達を対等に見ている。 彼らの日本愛の熱量は本気だった。 自動翻訳機能によって、僅かなボタンの掛け違いが解消した。 ありがとうイーロンマスク。 ありがとうXスタッフ。 🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵
