Load More Replies...This is probably a happy gecko regardless but lizards do not smile to communicate happiness. I don't think we should anthropomorphize animals too much because we risk misunderstanding them. You cannot really see the happiness of a gecko in a still image because they display that in the way they move and act.
I understand, but nothing wrong with enjoying how cute it is, Gandalf the Pink!

When you hear the term “blessed images,” you might start imagining those sweet photos of flowers that your grandmother might send you on Facebook with messages like, “Have a beautiful day, my love! You deserve all the joy and happiness in the world!” And while those images are wholesome and heartwarming as well, today, we’re looking at a list that’s in direct opposition to cursed images.
The Blessed_Images subreddit has been around since 2017, but it has already amassed an impressive 81k members, thanks to the uplifting nature of its content. The group has one rule, that all posts must be wholesome, and it’s full of adorable puppies, sweet memes and images that might make you shed a tear of joy.

A Very Proud Good Boi
My brother had a Rottweiler he named "Robert De Niro" because he had this funny way of grinning and a mole on his cheek. We called him Bobby. He could have been the Goodwill Ambassador for the breed. He was the sweetest, dumbest little (well, not so little he was about 90 pounds) Rottie you could ever find. An absolute love.
While it’s incredibly easy to tumble down a rabbit hole of doomscrolling and focusing on the negatives nowadays, it’s important that we also take time to view some wholesome content as well. That’s why groups like Blessed_Images are so lovely. They allow us to escape from the bad news we’re bombarded with on almost every platform for a few minutes to relax and take some deep breaths.
According to Emily Torres at The Good Trade, we’re all actually craving wholesome things in 2023. She explains that we’re often exhausted and overwhelmed during this “decade that’s left nothing but holes in our hearts,” so enjoying a wholesome, home cooked meal or viewing a few hilarious, uplifting TikToks can relieve a bit of our tension and make us feel like ourselves again.
I Didn’t Wanna Cry Rn
Oh god, I was smiling and happy until I saw this 😢😪😪😪. I've held too many loved ones as they've passed - this breaks my heart
Awww, I am sure this sweet little girl offered so much love and solace to her cat as it passed away. Losing a beloved pet never gets easy.
I've held many a cat as they faded away ... A gentle death is the best thing you can do for your old, decrepit friend.
To this day, I'm still conflicted...I buried my beloved cat Emma in the garden, but I wasn't by her site 'til the very end......five years later, I didn't bury her daughter Easy next to her mom, but this time I stayed with her until her last breath and softly patted her......so, I still reproach myself for not doing »both« for each of my cats...😔
Load More Replies...I didn't need to see this today. I sang the same thing to my kitty when she passed. I'm going to go cry for like 12 hours now. I miss her so much. My heart will never be the same.
I am so sorry. I understand how difficult this is. I did not sing to my kitty as she went to the Rainbow Bridge, but I did tell her that I love her. ( It was difficult to type this through the tears. )
Load More Replies...I can count this as bittersweet. Kitty passes but in the arms of someone who loves him. I never got to say farewell to Ragamuffin - she passed in her sleep when I was at work.

Torres describes having a lack of wholesome-ness in our lives as being similar to having a nutritional deficiency. We may not notice at first that we’ve begun to live in a perpetual state of stress and sorrow, but over time, we’ll start seeing the impacts it can have on our health. By getting our daily dose of joy, laughter, relaxation and warmth, we can keep our wellbeing in check and remind ourselves that the world isn’t all bad.

I wish my cat was like that. He would just stare daggers at me if I put that on him.
We all know that doomscrolling can affect us negatively, as it can worsen anxiety and depression and can cause us to become more stressed, lower our quality of sleep and lower our self-esteem. So if you want to reduce the urge to get stuck in a negative loop, Caldwell Memorial recommends setting timers on how often you scroll each day. Many phones have options you can set to limit your screentime, and there are now apps that will count how many times you access your social media accounts a day, to remind you not to log on too often.
A Couple In The 1800s Trying Not To Laugh During Their Picture
I love seeing old photos of happy people. LIKE THERE WAS REAL JOY AND PEOPLE WERE HAPPY WITH THEIR LIVES
Is that surprising? Of course it wasn’t all misery, just like it isn’t all misery today. But it also wasn’t nearly as idyllic as some people want to believe it was.

It’s also wise to unfollow accounts that encourage you to doomscroll or take in negative content if you’re trying to keep a more positive feed on social media. Focus more on keeping active in real life so you have less time for mindless scrolling, and try to replace doomscrolling with more beneficial activities, such as yoga or meditation. And of course, surrounding yourself with others who have a positive attitude and will want to discuss more uplifting topics can be helpful as well.

those were our rules. he, or she, who has cat on lap, does not have to get up.......... we had two lap sitting cats....
If you are being used as a cat bed, you are not allowed to move until the kitty says you can. Doesn't matter if the world ends, you must stay there until the kitty is done with their nap.
As for the benefits you can experience from taking in uplifting stories, Good News Utah says it can reduce your stress and anxiety. A 2016 study from the University of Southampton found that regularly consuming positive news can cause people to develop a more positive mindset and can counteract the negative symptoms that being surrounded by bad news can create.
Cuddling Done Right
My Jack Russell X Whippet loved her hottie and being an under dog. No one could dump baggage or sit down until the dog was found. Any slight bump could be a snuggly pup
Blessed Duck
I miss my duckies. Last year the price of feed tripled, and I spent 6 months finding a sanctuary for them to go to. The day I finally took them to their new home was happy and devastating. I know they're happy up there but it's still bittersweet.
Baby duck on its own is adorable already, but with a floatie?! Come on man!

Depends on the zoo. Many zoos give females companion dogs too, especially as cubs if they're singletons
Load More Replies...They get really stressed around humans as well. Our local rehab center limits human cheetah contact to one hour a day.
Surrounding yourself with good news can also promote better interactions between yourself and others. Positive news stories have been found to bring people together, and there’s no question that it’s more enjoyable to discuss wholesome and uplifting stories than upsetting ones. We should still stay informed on what’s going on in the world, but taking a little extra time to find positive stories, rather than simply clicking on the first headlines you see, can certainly be worth it.

Blessed Guard Dog
One lady in my town has sign that says 'please don't step on the dog'. She has chihuahua...
To be fair, a dog can look like this and still be something you should beware. My dog is cute. This is objective fact, given that at least a third of the people I pass in the park on any given day will tell me how beautiful or adorable she is, and at least another quarter only don't say it because they've said it in the past. Even out-of-breath joggers will say it as they go past. Even trying-to-be-cool teens or pre-teens will shout "I like your dog!" as they ride past on their bikes. But she's also very protective and as much as we try to socialize her, if you make a sudden movement or if you lean in to pet/boop her when she doesn't know you, she will be barking & growling very loudly and you will suddenly become aware of how very large and threatening she is. Always ask the owner before trying to pet a dog, y'all!
Taking in positive content can also encourage individuals to spread even more joy. Reading an uplifting article about giving back to the community might inspire you to do the same. Seeing adorable posts about grandmothers being wholesome might remind you to call yours up or to bring her some baked goods and take her out for dinner. Positivity and negativity are both contagious, so let’s try to spread more of the former!

I know it's a Husky they can withstand snow and cold. BUT, the poor dog needs to be INSIDE! Not laying outside on the wet, cold snowy ground!!! Shame on whomever took this pic.
Some huskies insist on staying outside. Their fur is thick enough that they really don't feel it. A clue is that the snow is just sitting there, and not melting into it's fur.

That adorable pup comes with warnings. Harp seals might look cuddly and cute but like any other wild animal; they are untamed and can be aggressive when they feel threatened. Did you know that it is illegal to feed them? Keep a minimum distance of 150 meters from them. Petting a Harp seal pup can also reduce its chance to be found by its mother as they identify their pups with smell.

I hope everyone that had a Dad like this fully understands how special that was. For a lot of us this was NOT our experience.
I had a dad, but only for a few years. Yet i still remember this feeling very vividly. God, i miss him.
Load More Replies...My dad was very sick his entire life. He went to dialysis at 3 am then went to work 40 hours a week when I was little. He was always so happy when he got home and we clung to his legs acting like little monkeys. I do now know how he did it, he was never mad or upset or felt he got a back deck of cards which he really did.
My cat, every day when I get home. She hears the garage door, she comes running. She's always waiting at the kitchen door for me.
Hope You Like This Cat!
