We know how tough the recent years have been, dear Pandas. But we also want you to know that there’s lots of good in the world—even though it’s sometimes hidden by the shadows of our own doubts and fears, it shines bright if we let it. Truly, life’s full of brilliant people who go the extra mile to help their family, friends, neighbors, and communities. And let’s not forget that even though politeness, honesty, and vulnerability are more of a rare sight now, some people still cling to these old ways and hold them up as virtues.

Nowadays, the word ‘boomer’ is kind of a low-key insult, poking fun at baby boomers, the generation born from 1946 to 1964, right after the Silent Generation and before Generation X (though there are some nuances which we’ll discuss later). However, that’s a very narrow view of boomers. And the ‘Wholesome Boomer Content’ Twitter account, with nearly 137k eager fans, is proof of that. The online community collects the most soul-healing posts by and about members of the baby boomer generation that should restore your faith in humanity.

Have a look at some of the best soul-healing posts, upvote the ones that brought a smile to your heart and face, and remember to share these with your friends if they’re feeling blue. Oh! And if you’ve got any wholesome stories to share with all the other Pandas, that’s what the comment section is there for—have fun!

The founder of the 'Wholesome Boomer Content' project told me about why the content draws in so many people, how they maintain such a high standard of posts, and why some people tend to criticize baby boomers. You'll find their full interview with Bored Panda below.
