Blessed are they who
see beautiful things
in humble places
where other people see nothing.

We are so proud of Truth Organic Spa - North Grafton, MA who stayed strong and resilient throughout the rebuilding process. Check them out in North Grafton and be amazed!

Behind this door is a dream reborn 🪴
and it took a whole village to get us here.

Thank you to everyone who rolled up their sleeves and helped us rebuild and reopen!!

We especially want to give a huge shoutout to State Rep David Muradian, who stepped up and made the call to the state board office when we were stuck waiting and desperate to open. He’s been a true supporter of Truth, and we sincerely appreciate his commitment to the community and advocacy for local businesses like ours.

We’re beyond grateful and we’ve been loving every moment of welcoming our clients back!

Rebecca Young is just 12 years old and she did something incredible. One day, she saw people sleeping on the cold streets in Glasgow, Scotland and thought, "There must be a way to help." So she designed a solar-powered blanket inside a backpack that charges during the day and keeps someone warm at night. Her invention is simple, brilliant, and full of heart.

She entered her design into the UK Primary Engineer Leaders Award and it's a national engineering competition with 70,000 entries. She won the Commendation Medal through public vote and also earned a silver medal from the judges. Engineering firm Thales loved her idea so much that they built a working prototype. It’s complete with flexible solar panels, copper wiring for heat, and smart power-saving features.

Rebecca said, "To think something I've designed could one day help somebody on the streets is amazing." It’s important to inspire kids to dream big and create things that help other people. And just think, Rebecca didn't wait. She saw something wrong and tried to make it better.

🎥 A Mother’s Kiss — Through the Eyes of Science

Imagine this:
A mother gently kisses her child.
To the eye — a simple act of love.
But beneath the surface… a miracle unfolds.

Scientists captured this moment using functional MRI.
A scientific photograph of love.
Visual proof of what instinct always knew — now confirmed by neuroscience.

💞 When a mother kisses her baby, she doesn’t just touch skin… she touches the brain.
That tender kiss sets off a storm of invisible signals that change both mother and child — profoundly.

🤱 In the mother:

The brain’s pleasure and reward centers light up (nucleus accumbens, dopamine system).

The amygdala and hypothalamus activate — triggering protective, primal emotion.

Oxytocin floods the system — the “love hormone” that reduces stress, deepens bonding, and creates lasting attachment.

👶 In the child:

Heart rate slows. Muscles relax.

Stress hormones decrease.

The body receives a powerful message: “I’m safe. I’m loved.”

And right there… the brain begins to record love — shaping trust, intimacy, and the future ability to love.

🧠 On the scan, you can literally see both brains glowing.
A synchronized dance between two nervous systems.
A silent language. A coded signal of love.

💬 In that moment…

The mother’s brain acts as if protecting the most precious thing on Earth.
The child’s brain quietly responds: “I’m safe. I’m home.”

No words. No effort. Just presence.
Just one kiss. One real connection.

This is the neurobiology of love.
Care that leaves a mark deep within us.
And yes — love can be seen.
It glows. ❤️
