Hopefully, today you are ready to see some content that will make even your soul smile. Something about wholesome memes just hits the right spot, and even though a few might make you shed a tear, inside, you will feel only pure happiness.

The Instagram page @hurtingsouls collects the most heartening content imaginable, which obviously mostly consists of animal posts, but who can be mad about that? In my opinion, the more animals, the merrier. So without further ado, I invite you to take a break from all things negative and delve into the world of cuteness. Also, let us know what kind of wholesome posts are your favorite, Pandas!

With all the negativity and stress dominating online spaces, wholesome memes have emerged as a delightful and uplifting phenomenon. Combining humor, empathy, and positivity, these memes aim to brighten people's days and foster a sense of connection.

By often featuring adorable animals, heartwarming stories, inspirational messages, or acts of kindness, they deviate from sarcastic or ironic humor. Wholesome memes counterbalance the negativity that can usually be found on social media platforms.

All this wholesome content can be compared with positive psychology, which focuses on understanding and promoting well-being, happiness, and flourishing in individuals. It highlights positive emotions, character strengths, positive relationships, and personal fulfillment. Sounds familiar, right?

Wholesome memes align closely with the principles of positive psychology. So we could almost say that by engaging with wholesome memes, people are exposed to content that supports their well-being and contributes to a positive psychological state.

I am imagining their voices but moving them one picture over. "Gol blimey! Look at that tree! Ain't she a BEAUTY?! We'll just add a blob of green paint right here and that'll make her as happy as two wallabies on a walkabout!"

I still can't believe Steve Irwin is gone. My brain hasn't accepted that he died in such a stupid fluke way.

Bob Ross was all into baby squirrels and s**t. Why not use that for his picture?

I just recently learned (about a month ago) that Bob Ross had been in the military, and was a boot camp instructor. He hated yelling at the new recruits, and swore once he got out of the military he would never yell at anyone again!

I love this meme, but I’d give Jim Henson “humor” or “joyfulness”

Just looking at the pictures of these kind and thoughtful men makes me feel good. I can only hope that now that they are gone, there are others left who are as good.👼🏻💕Norma Jean Morrissey

I looked at loving women: herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea, pregnancy, etc. So I looked at sex with other men: HIV, herpes, hepatitis B, etc. So I took to self love, and developed RSI. I give up. ;-)

I hope to sit at their table at lunch up in Heaven someday. And WHY do I believe in Heaven? Because these 4 pure souls couldn't just disappear into nothingness.

Irwin, a grinning animal-botherer, treated animals as if they were toys. Now whales are threatening kayakers who invade their feeding grounds to"whale watch" and go oooh and aaah. I'm with the whales on this. Rogers told kids they were all 'special'; unfortunately, too many believed him. Worse, now they act like it.

I'm not saying these puppers aren't amazingly cute but please people be aware how dangerous it is to breed a small dog with a large dog. Shouldn't be done at all. I am a uk kennel club accredited breeder with 20 years experience of breeding and showing or at east I was until I lost my last beautiful girl and can't deal with the heartache of losing her
