In May 2017, ten-year-old Juliana Ossa was swimming in a designated area at Moss Park in Orlando, Florida, when a fun afternoon suddenly turned into a real-life nightmare. From beneath the calm surface, a massive alligator—nearly 9 feet (2.7 meters) long—lunged like a torpedo and clamped its powerful jaws around her leg. In an instant, she was trapped in the predator’s grip, paralyzed by pain and fear, while those around her were frozen in shock, unsure how to help.

But Juliana wasn’t an ordinary child.

Amid the chaos and pain, she remembered something remarkable: a tip from a previous visit to Gatorland, a wildlife park known for educating visitors about alligators. A trainer had once said, “If you stick your fingers in an alligator’s nose, it has to open its mouth to breathe.” Incredibly, Juliana acted on that memory. With astonishing courage, she reached out and pushed her fingers into the alligator’s nostrils. Just as she’d learned, it opened its mouth—and in that split second, she pulled her leg free and swam to safety.

She was quickly rescued and taken to Nemours Children’s Hospital, where she was treated for puncture wounds and released just a few hours later. Juliana’s story is more than just one of survival—it’s a powerful lesson in bravery, quick thinking, and resilience. Her incredible escape is now shared in educational programs across the country and stands as one of the most inspiring survival stories in modern American history.

Children’s lives are touched by trauma on a regular basis, no matter how much parents or teachers try to keep the “bad things” away. Instead of shielding children from the dangers, violence or tragedies around us, psychologists suggest adults talk honestly to kids about what is happening.

Internet safety has never been more important in today's digital world. Apps, social media and other platforms can help people connect, but they can also present potential dangers for our most vulnerable citizens. Pasco Sheriff's Office compiled a list of apps that parents and guardians should be aware of. If your child has these apps, learn how they work and talk with your child about the importance of being safe online.

Truly Heartbreaking. RIP. Enjoy every moment because you never know when it'll be your last.

📸 One of the saddest photos ever taken.

Pratik Joshi had been living in London for six years. A dedicated software professional, he had long dreamed of building a life abroad—for his wife and their three young children, who remained in India.

After years of paperwork, delays, and waiting, the dream was finally coming true.
Just two days earlier, his wife, Dr. Komi Vyas, a respected physician from Udaipur, resigned from her job.
The bags were packed. Goodbyes were said. The future was within reach.

This morning, the family of five boarded Air India Flight 171, hearts full of hope and nervous excitement.
They snapped a quick selfie.
Sent it to relatives.
A new life just minutes away.

But they never made it.

The plane went down.
Only one person survived.
None from the photo.

💔 In a single moment, a lifetime of dreams turned to ash.
A brutal reminder: life is terrifyingly fragile.
Everything you build, hope for, love—
all of it hangs by a thread.

So while you can:
Live. Love. Don’t wait for happiness to begin tomorrow.
