Whenever someone sneezes, you say “Bless You” or hear someone else say these words.

It’s used to wish a person blessings in various situations especially as a response to a sneeze and also when parting or writing a valediction.

When? When did this saying originate?

By the AD 590 as an outbreak of the bubonic plague was reaching Rome.

How? How did this saying originate?

At the time sneezing was thought to an early symptom of the plague. The blessing became a common effort to halt the disease. Some have offered an explanation suggesting that people once held the folk belief that a person’s soul could be thrown from their body when they sneezed, that sneezing otherwise opened the body to invasion by the devil or evil spirits, or that sneezing was the body’s effort to force out an invading evil presence. In cases, “god bless you or bless you is used as a sort of shield against evil.

Where? Where did this saying originate?


This happened in Rome during the plague was occurring.

Summary

Summary


What this video was about this kid named Myles and this soldier. The soldier was going to for dinner with his wife and Myles family was right behind him before he walked in he found $20 in the parking lot but decided to give it to the soldier since he reminded him if his dad that had passed away 5 week before he was born. Andy wrote a note why he gave him the $20 bill. At the end the soldier was honored to be recognized for his actions as a soldier and thoughtful that Myles would give him something that he found to him. Now the soldier reads the note every day and hopes on day people around the world would give as well as Myles did. Some emotions I felt while watching this video was happy because this little kid younger than us would do an act of kindness would think of other’s.

This video was about an older woman that went to go and visit her husband at a cemetery. This one guy went to her and took her purse from her. They cached they guy and put a mug shot of him on television. The guy had a 15 year old son and he and his wife were separated when his son was 2 years old. The son said that his dad has always been in and out of jail. The son of the guy was in a band at school. He was invited to go to a camp and needed to pay 250 dollars in order to go. Out of all the money that the guy stole from the older woman he gave 250 dollars to his son so that he would be able to go to that camp. Then the son asked the lady if he would want to meet up at a church parking lot. The older woman and the guys son the met up at the church parking lot , and the son of the guy wanted to return the money and while he was handing it to her , he said I’m guessing this money came from the money my dad stole from you. He apologized and said I needed to do this because if I didn’t no one else would have. So he handed her the money and said this was supposed to before my band trip but I assume that this is yours. She took it from his hand and said thank you and gave him a hug. The older woman then said here, this is for your band trip.
