I Saw This On R/Aww And I Searched For Blessed Comments

I Hope This Isn't A Repost
That only proves that happiness has nothing to do with your body size.
"The opposite of cursed comments; artistic masterpieces that fill you with joy and euphoria," the moderators of 'Blessed Comments' state in the community description, and we can’t help but wholeheartedly agree.
Ever since the forum was created in 2018, it has served as a refreshing outlet for people to share and find the sweetest, funniest, and purely optimistic comments online. With over 56k members witnessing and chronicling these wholesome encounters daily, the group spreads positivity by proving that even when the world feels full of adversity, it’s not as bad as it seems.
To learn more about our tendency to emphasize the negativity in life and the tools we can use to become a tad kinder, we reached out to Joshua Klapow, Ph.D. a psychologist and creator of Mental Drive. He started this well-being initiative to help people gain access to the best in-class psychological and performance tools to live healthier, more fulfilled, and successful lives.

Awwww
According to Klapow, we humans believe we’re constantly surrounded by negativity because we are trained to pay more attention to it — "bad often means danger." The psychologist told Bored Panda that from a survival perspective, it is important to be dialed into anything dangerous.
"As we have evolved, 'survival' becomes more complex. As a result, relationship breakups, lost fortunes, stealing, corruption, etc. all are associated with survival, and so we are drawn to it."
This explains why it’s so easy for us to focus just on the negatives. In fact, this instinctual drive to seek out the scary, the awful, and the alarming has a name. It’s called negativity bias and it means that we’re more likely to register and dwell on negative thoughts and experiences than positive or neutral ones. We are even inclined to focus on the pessimistic aspects when they are rather insignificant.

I’d give each dog a baby-cut carrot. My dog won’t eat it but he likes to sit on them. My kids now call them “butt” carrots. 😁
We had a dog who loved carrots more than meat or treats, to eat I mean. But your comment is hilarious.

That shouldn't be a problem. I'd whistle for my parrot. I taught him several whistling sounds, and one of them is for greeting me when I get home / responding when I call him. Photo with my green fluffball :) 20220912_1...8140ec.jpg 
I wouldn't even try - I would just claim them all! But if pressed, the sound of the coffee grinder would bring him for a biscuit.
My dog always carefully bites my hand in a very specific way as a greeting. I’d hold out my hand and walk around the room until she came up to me and held my hand in her mouth.
You might get my dog. I think it's in golden retriever's DNA.

I'd call her by one of her many nicknames. Who uses their pet's real name anyway?
My kitty would be the first one out of the door if there were 99 other cats
They might be 100 identical “looking “ dogs. But I’d look them in the eye. The one looking back at ME with pure adoring LOVE is my little man. The soul of an animal shines in their eyes!
All I would have to say is the word "Oma". That's what we call our neighbor who is more family than she is neighbor. Jimmy knows that word and thinks we are going to see her, so he'd probably mow down the other Jimmy dogs as he tries to get out the door.
I'd just look for the trail of destruction and the cat with the most wide-eyed innocent look.
My one pup is obsessed with me so I just need to pet the nearest pup and he'll come running. Even if I don't pet a pup, his tail wags insanely when he sees me. My other guy acts like a cat so pretty easy to spot that jerk; he'll probably be humping another dog too.
I would walk into the room. He's gone now sadly but he would of come to me without saying a word. Well assuming my wife was by me since he's a mommy's boy even if dad saved his life 😂
Sit on the floor. My rabbit will come charging up and jam her head into my lap so I can pet her face. As far as we've found, she has no max capacity for face pets. She will sit so you can pet her face for hours, take ten minutes to snack and use her box, then she's ready for several more hours of face petting.
I'll put a rag or towel on the ground and say "rubbel die Katz" he will bring the rag for me to rub his back and bottom really hard and lean in to me.
I saved a cockatiel that had gotten outside and lost. I found her because the Cardinals at the bird feeder were picking on her. When she was in her cage at night, she had nightmares. (cardinal PTSD?) And would fall to the floor of the cage screaming. I had to calm her just like you do a toddler with a nightmare. Let them cry it out in your shoulder while you pat and stroke their back whispering that they are safe and no one will hurt them now. So I could tell my bird when she had a nightmare.
I would lay down and let my pet find me and just enjoy all the kitties!
I would lie down on the ground and wait until my dog came over and lay next to me. And every dog that came over and lay next to me, I would claim as my dog.
It will be much easier for your pet to recognize you than for you to recognize it.
My dog loves going shopping, she gets a ton of treats and we have a nice break, usually just the two of us. She's losing her hearing, almost deaf, so I use the "money" gesture (rubbing my thumb over the tip of the index finger and middle finger) and she comes running.
I'll just pick up every single cat, and if one gets limp in my arms like a noodle that's mine
Just whistle loudly, call my cat's name and shout "Shall we go to bed?!". She'll rush over, she loves getting her cuddles before I sleep. 😹
I would pull out his insulin needle and he wound start running away lmao
I'd get down to Corgi height, open my arms, and yell "Itty Bitty!" Cause when you do that is BAM! Instant lap full of doggo
I'd either stick my tongue out or yawn. My horse will copy me. He's a good boi like that :)
Call my cat's name, the dog will be there in a millisecond. I never fails!
I wouldn't have to do anything. Tigger hates other cats and would be likely the one starting fights. He is so mean he runs off big hunting dogs all the time. One time he even smacked a big almost Saint Bernard sized dog in the face for trying to come into the yard. He doesn't care how big or bad they are, he is just meaner and like a honey badger, "don't give a s%#!" attitude.
I trained my cat to walk towards me when I circle my hand.
I would just yell my other cat's name. Kiki doesn't understand yet that her name isn't Wednesday.
I had two snotty cats are the same time. They refused to respond to their own names, but would come when I called the other. I got a dog. Both cats would come when I called the dog.

I'd wait for him to trip, knock over several other dogs, then run clumsily over to use oblivious to the utter disaster in his wake
Just get on my knees with my arms open. My pal will come to me, making me the happiest chap on this world.
I would find a chair and wait for my cat to jump into my lap. I know he would want to be first, even if other cats would try too.
easy, I shake the treats. whichever one stays put with a face saying im not moving is my cat. that or the one that slow blinks twice back at me
I could ask "who was in the kitchen?" My dog would be the one looking away pretending she didn't hear me.
I'd yell my one o f my neighbor's dogs names because he always comes when I call them.
I taught my dog how to hug on command, if you raise your arms above your head shell jump up at you and let you hug her. Her name is muffin she’s the sweetest thing <3
I make a particular noise when calling my cats for their meal. I have no idea if other cats would react to it as well.
Ah I've seen the appropriate response to this- "I walk out with 101 best friends"
My cats have all been able to read lips. I didn't have to teach them; they just knew--try it with your own pets! [Hint: it helps if the word you mouth is 'FOOD.' They might stare at you for a couple of seconds to see if you mean it, but then they'll come running.]
i'd just sit on the floor. Both of them would come up to me and check on me. :)
I would just be like “mum doesn’t love you, you know that right ?” and my baby would come and jump on my lap and put her head on mine and I know my willow would be with me….
I would shout out 'here boy' and my dog would be the only one who ignores me.
"Wanna go for a ride?" Proceed to the dog walking on his hind legs & crying a bit.
Do we get whatever requisites we need? If I lay on a couch and snuggle up under a blanket, my cat would be right there, trying to crawl under it.
i do a little clicking song before i give my dogs a treat, they get over excited and usually fall a few stairs, or hit each other with their tails, daz how
Have an anxiety attack and cry sing you are my sunshine. My doggo will find me and love on me until I calm down.
I have an anxiety attack and cry sing you are my sunshine. He'll find me, he always does.
I have one monkey (my human friend i named him monkey) when i call him bi**h, he just run towards me to beat me...💁♂️🐒
My dog is deaf so he'd be the only one not looking or probably would be overwhelmed and hiding behind me the instant he saw me.
My cat is the one who escaped when they first opened the door to let me in.
I would lay down on the floor and my cat would come sit down on my chest.
3 cats so: Baby: id mimic her chrips she makes.(she always responds) Molly: find which cat recoils if i try n pet her/ask to pet her n if she cries "nooo" ik its her. Apollo: just enter the room n go "LITTLE MAN!" (He is ATTACHED to me so hed just run up to me also he knows his nick name)
I wouldn't have to say anything my dog would immediately be trying to climb me. For my cats I would sing their food song.
I would shout random things like "boofy-floofer-snoot!", and then my dog would know it's me. And how my cats two out of four wouldn't come no matter what, but the third one would find me because she's hungry and I would find the fourth meowing her head off
I have nicknamed my two dogs trouble one and two. Yesterday I looked at one of them outside and asked what trouble she was getting in to and she came running up to me with a goofy grin.
I just tell my dog "You need a bath" and she just gives me the most filthy look you'll ever see. Ah, German Shepherd filthy looks... so cute.
See my previous comment on the identical cats who are not identical.
Open a pack of my favourite blackcurrant and apple cracker/cereal bars. My cat loves them and recognises the sound of the wrapper and will come running to get some as soon as she hears it. She loves them so much that I can often barely open them because she's rubbing her face all over the packet while meowing impatiently.
One of my former cats (a void named Anubis) would come running wanting to play fetch with me if I crushed an empty cigarette soft pack. With my current cat (a ginger tabby named Samson), all I'd have to do is sit down in a chair and wait for the tree-cat to crawl up onto my shoulder.
I would just sit down, and in a moment she'd be on my lap, her head on my shoulder. My dog knows me.
Roommate's dog had a number of stuffed animals. But when we asked 'wheres your girlfriend?' he'd grab this specific one and hump it.
I’ll take out the bag of treats, if he sits and gives his paw that’s my Coco (he’s a cat)
Every day when I come home from work I ask doodle (our doggo) "what did you do with your dog day?! Eat snacks? Take naps? Attack cats? All of the best dog stuff?!" She always wiggles cause she loves tormenting our cat Mr Stinky.
He would come to me upon seeing me wiggling his entire body back n forth so fast its likely his tail and body movements are propelling him forward actually and not his legs lol My big boy is obsessed with his mommy so he runs to me wth the biggest grin and aforementioned wiggles as soon as he lays eyes on me. OR Id speak nicely to the dog closest to me and his 80lb jealous butt would launch himself inbetween me and the other dog faster than I could ever mutter Slash to get him to come to me lol
Before my dachshund lost his hearing he responded to wiener! when called.
My rats spin on command :) One in particular spins counterclockwise, while the others spin clockwise. Makes for a very bumpy treat frenzy.
Picturing this just made me laugh so hard that I woke my husband 🤣🤣🤣
My pet would find me - she's always the first one to spot me if I arrive while they're all out for a walk, she recognises me a mile off and gets all excited. Aww! ❤️
My cat loves cheese...I'd bring a block of cheese and a grater, and wait for her to find me :)
I'd snap my fingers. He'll do a proper recall and sit in front of me and at he next hand signal he'll go around to the left side and sit again. Then he'll give me "that's 2 tricks in a row. where's my treat?" look.
I have a special food call that I yell every time, they instantly run to me. Handy for vet visits, fires, getting out of dodge.
Stick out my foot. The one who licks the most aggressively is my girl. The one with the stinkiest farts is my baby boy, and the one who never wants to stop cuddling is my big boy.
If I call "baby booooooy" and pat pat pat my legs he'll come running :):):)
We recently discovered THAT spot that makes his leg go nuts when you scratch him and it ain't anywhere any other dogs I know have it :-D
She is an all black pit bull but has ONE white toe and nail :) plus she has a special talking whine thing she does! 😋
I would start prepping her dinner. She comes up and starts screaming at me that in too slow! (Not my fault you like warmer food lol)
I'd put a chewing stick for dogs on the floor. I'm pretty sure my cat would be the only one running off with it and consume it within a couple of minutes. A small siamese pussycat but has the attitude & jaws of a pitbull 😸
Double click my fingers. That's her sign to come indoors when she's been out to pee
All four of my kittens react vocally in different ways to the dancing frog song. Nimbus, my grey and white, chitters. Sabbath, my void, chatters. Banshee, my Russian Blue, maows. Mira, my Silver Point Russian Blue, chortles. So... yeah😅
I just have to kneel down and make clicking-noises with the tongue. Or not make any noise. Just kneeling would bring her.
Easy it'll be the one 80 lb monster trying to crawl in my skin LOL she has separation issues
Our Great Dane loves to use our legs to "tunnel". She will go between legs to stretch and get scratched. Alternatively I could pull out a doggie brush and she would complain and run away. Don't know why she hates being brushed even with the gloves and she somehow knows anything that could be used as a brush.
I would yell breakfast or dinner and see what they would eat- our cats are extremely spoilt.
When we spot insects and use the word for fly in our native language she runs to us

And it's no secret that online hostility can feel overwhelming. Just think about the news and comments about the political turmoil, the looming economic crisis, and the bottomless supply of information that only adds more fuel to our inner chaos — it's hard to stay resilient to negativity.
According to Verywell Mind, this bias leads to remembering traumatic experiences better than positive ones, recalling insults better than praise, reacting more strongly to negative stimuli, and responding more strongly to negative events than to equally positive ones. This tendency to pay more attention to bad things and overlook good things helped keep humans alive in the past, but we don’t really need to fear for our safety as much in the modern world.
So to lead a more fulfilling life, we must gain back control over how we perceive this tendency. We need to become aware of how our brains get so wary and try to put things in perspective to see that it’s usually not as tragic as we think.

I found a fox cub one evening. He was out having a cub adventure. I gave him a whole steak. He snapped at it and then dragged it half under a bush and scoffed it all. His belly was dragging on the ground
Outlets such as 'Blessed Comments' are a breath of fresh air that reminds us of the wonderful encounters happening online. However, we can also take a step further and add a dash of joy by shifting our mindset.
When asked how to maintain a bright outlook in real life, the psychologist explained that the research is very clear. "We must train our brains to look for optimistic and positive events because the default for so many of us is to look for negative ones." The creator of Mental Drive added that things like gratitude journals and appreciation lists help balance the negative information saturation we live with.

Speaking of the challenge of keeping ourselves positive online, Klapow noted that following uplifting and upbeat sources is like having a balanced meal. "It’s critical for our mental health. Make sure you have at least some information streams that are automatic and positive coming at you." After all, optimism and happiness are contagious. It’s important to surround yourself with cheerful people, both in the real and the digital world, who can help you unwind from unfortunate events happening today.

However, we all need to strive to stay rounded and well-informed citizens, and turning a blind eye to the negativities in the world won’t make them any brighter. In a bid to broaden our horizons while keeping sanity intact, one thing is crucial — balancing out the content we consume.
"Social media is a 'filterless' landing place," Klapow said. "We are free to express as much pent-up anger, frustration, vitriol, sadness, stress, etc., that we have in our lives." You can essentially say whatever you want online — whether it’s objectively true or not, kind or cruel — and not really have a price to pay for doing so.
However, Klapow said this approach fuels a toxic, negative sea of information and perspectives. "Keeping ourselves more positive is a matter of training ourselves to do so."

"A simple strategy is to take any comment you place online and before you post it read it aloud (not in your head, aloud)," Klapow advised. "When you hear yourself saying the words, very often you will at the very least tone them down. When we are forced to hear our own thoughts, we often realize just how toxic they can be."
If you strive to be more optimistic in general, the psychologist suggested trying this exercise. "For one week at the end of the day, write down 5 things that went well that day. Force yourself to get 5. They can be small (i.e. it was nice weather), or big (I got a promotion). But do 5."
"Doing this at the end of the day helps you go to bed on an optimistic note, and it begins to train your brain to concentrate more on the positive aspects of your life," Klapow concluded.

I'm really hoping this guy has survived because that cancer sounds terrible, viz Leiomyosarcoma, or LMS, is a type of rare cancer that grows in the smooth muscles. The smooth muscles are in the hollow organs of the body, including the intestines, stomach, bladder, and blood vessels. In females, there is also smooth muscle in the uterus. These smooth muscle tissues help move blood, food, and other material through the body and work without you being aware. LMS is an aggressive cancer, which means it can grow quickly. LMS is found most often in the abdomen or in the uterus
