    While scrolling through the internet, we never really know what’s coming next. One minute it’s a funny cat flopping off a table, the next, it’s breaking news that makes your chest feel heavy. And while being informed matters, so does your peace of mind. Not everything has to weigh you down. Sometimes, it’s okay to pause, breathe, and find joy in something small. After all, your sanity deserves it.

    Studies have shown that constantly consuming distressing content can ramp up anxiety and stress. Your sleep suffers, your mood takes a hit, and suddenly everything feels a bit off. That’s why good stories matter more than we think. They pull us back, soften the hard edges of the world. They remind us that goodness still exists, quiet, steady, and real. You just have to notice it.

    And that’s where wholesome posts come in; they’re little antidotes to chaos. Today, we’ve got a story that’s going to feel like a cozy blanket on a bad day. It’s not flashy or dramatic, just honest and kind. Bored Panda spoke to a man who doesn’t just talk kindness, he sews it. Meet Ravi Shah, a tailor from Gujarat who stitches joy into every thread.

    Known lovingly as “Mota Bhai” or Big Brother, Ravi isn’t your average tailor. He’s taken leftover fabric from his clients and turned it into something magical. Instead of tossing scraps, he uses them to make outfits for kids in need. His goal? To make every child feel seen, loved, and fashionable. And he’s doing just that.

    Ravi remembers his first trip to a mall like it was yesterday. “It felt like walking into a dream,” he says. But that dream came with price tags too steep for many. Seeing street kids in worn-out clothes never sat right with him. The memory lingered, long after the mall lights faded. So, he decided to do something about it, with a needle and a heart full of empathy.

    “Most of these kids wear hand-me-downs or whatever they find,” Ravi explained. “Some shirts drown them, others barely fit.” And he couldn’t unsee it. That discomfort, that lack of dignity, it sparked an idea. “I thought, why not use leftover cloth?” he said. “Why not make something just for them, made with care?” That’s how it began.

    “When customers leave extra fabric, I always ask if I can use it,” he shared. With those bits and pieces, he crafts everything from tiny kurtas to fun little dresses. He doesn’t ask for payment, and he never expects praise. During his quiet hours, he sews, bringing life to what others would discard. 

    Ravi measures each child carefully, just like any paying customer. “Depending on the fabric, I create what fits best,” he said. There’s joy in watching a tunic come together from four random prints. And when the kids try it on? The room lights up. “Their excitement makes it worth every second,” he said, smiling.

    Some of Ravi’s clients have caught on to his mission. “A few even bring me extra material just for this,” he said proudly. “They know I’ll put it to good use.” And he does, no scrap goes to waste in his shop. With each piece, a little more hope is stitched into the seams. Kindness really is contagious, isn’t it?

    My Aunt Saved My Life By Being A Live Liver Donor For Me

    Two women in hospital gowns and masks sharing a comforting embrace during a pure and uplifting moment in healthcare.

    I have an autoimmune disease called PSC. After 15 years with the disease I was at the end stages of liver failure and was placed on the transplant list as of February this year. I knew it would be years on the list and was told I might not be healthy enough to go through a live liver donor. We did some work and got my health to a place where I could handle a live liver transplant.

    I didn’t ask anyone but told my family my status and my aunt immediately volunteered. She gave up so much to be able to do this for me. Went through lots of tests and appointments just to get to this point. We are two weeks post surgery and although recovery has been tough, we are both heading in the right direction. I’m so thankful for this new gift of life she so graciously has given me.

    This is what I need to do. Yeah, I have bad depression sometimes. It hits and I'm tired of it. Medications didn't work. I eat well, brain foods. I get sunlight. I exercise. I'm sober. I have goals. I keep a journal. I do Therapy. I learn new things. I've considered electric shock treatment but I can't afford it without insurance. I'm learning more about self defeating personality and trying to identify my triggers. I'm still hopeful I can heal my brain. I keep working on it. I get dysphoric but that's different than my depression episodes. As much as I've learned about psychology I do believe it's more trauma from childhood over clinical. It could be stamped clinical but I have digged deep within me to see as much as I could about my behaviors. I'm misdiagnosed Bipolar a lot and it's not the case. It's really disheartening health care professionals can't seem to understand BPD vs Bipolar 😕 and self defeating has been taken out of the DSM. I have low self esteem and that can trigger the depression as well as loneliness. But, when it hits I can't function. I tell myself.. why you have such low self esteem!!? You're such a fighter and such a brave girl!! No, it just comes from the lack of from mommy and daddy as a kid and I deal with it everyday.

    I do this for my husband too, but my art isn't good. I use a lot of stickers to help my art. He also enjoys the fun lunch bags. I'm glad to see others do it as well. My dad had put a smile face on my lunches when I was a kid and now I like to make nice bags for my husband. It was one of my rare happy childhood memories. Despite the paper waste, I don't care. I try my best with other Earth saving things. The lunch bags are just special.

    Pay for the beer with the money your dad wanted you to use, then give the bartender a 20 dollar bill and ask for two 10's back (or give bartender a different tenner and ask for your dad's one back). Keep your dad's bill. Btw, you can repeat this on every birthday, and maybe the anniversary of your dad's passing - or his birthday, if you prefer!

    My kid would have loved this as a toddler. He could entertain himself with rocks for hours. I have a super cute video of him dropping rocks in a big puddle. They were on opposite sides of the driveway so he spent quite a long time toddling back and forth picking up the rocks and dropping them in the water.
