If You Think That The World Is Dark And Sad These Days, These 50 Wholesome Pics Might Reignite Your Optimism
The chilly and dark half of the year is getting closer and closer, so we all need a bit of extra warmth and light in our lives. Fortunately, human beings have the ability to do amazing things that lift up our spirits and make us warm and fuzzy inside. So to get you feeling like the world is a magical place full of wonder, Bored Panda has collected some of the most wholesome stories from around the globe.
Remember to upvote your fave ones, dear Pandas. Also, we know that 2020 has been a tough year so far, but we’d love it if you could let us know what positive things have happened to you in the comments. When you’re done with this awesome list, check out our latest uplifting posts here, here, and here.
Staying optimistic helps us deal with whatever storms might come our way and reduces the negative effects of stress. The New York Times puts it best when it says that optimism isn’t about ignoring negative feelings, but it’s all about being hopeful for what the future might bring. So you don’t have to smile if you don’t feel like it—all it takes is some hope. However, hope and optimism aren't the same thing, as psychologist, priest, and published author Dr. Fraser Watts told Bored Panda. Scroll down for our interview with him.

Today Oliver Stopped Me Dead In His Tracks And Turned Back Around To See This Picture That He Spotted! He Just Stared At It In Awe
He recognized another boy like him, smiling and laughing on a display at Target. Oliver sees kids every day, but he never gets to see kids like him. This was amazing! I am so happy that other kids that pass through here with their parents, will see this! There is a lot of focus on representing diversity, but representing people with disabilities is just as important

I have always agreed that bringing a variety of models to advertising helps us to be more accepting. But until I saw this image, I know now that I didn't truly understand the power behind actually doing this. This really gives it a whole new perspective to those able-bodied like myself who just can't simply understand what this means to those it actually affects.
ChimeraBubbles 5 years ago
Representation matters. I have a disability/am disabled and growing up I saw very few people on television and in magazines like me. And what I did see was that we were to be pitied and helped because we were "helpless" (ugh). Seeing how the world has changed for young people is heartening.

This would work for adults in wheelchairs too. Dark skinned mannikins are showing up in stores but for people in wheelchairs, there is no positive advertising. I'm wheelchair-bound and would love an idea of how a garment might look on me; let diversity reign!

This is awesome! As an able bodied person many of us don’t notice how different and sometimes harder the world around us is for disabled people. There’s a park near our house that has a swing for disabled children to use. It’s the first time I’ve ever seen one like that. It’s nice that they have that, more parks should.

when i was little the school park near me had installed a swing for disabled kids (big, had a roller coaster style safety lock thing on it) and now in the same park theres a swing for wheelchairs and in the community park that just got redone they added a sort of community exercise area which has a lot of equipment for wheelchair bound people to use. it got finished at the beginning of this year but got closed due to corona soon after and i havent gotten the chance to use it yet 😪

I do have a father, a good one in general speaking, but when it comes to work with tools and repair my stuff, we'd rather get it done by himself instead of teach me, 'cause I'm s woman, and I it's "dangerous play with tools". Man, I had to learnt it all by myself, which meant I committed a lotta actually dangerous mistakes, but fortunately I eventually learnt a lot about repairing stuff around the house thanks to a good friend of mine 😁

My dad had the same opinion for the 22 years I've lived. He was diagnosed with gastric cancer last year and I had to fight him to teach me once and for all because he was getting too weak to mow the lawn, etc. He kept saying "I'll have a man to do it" once I get married. I had to keep telling him I'm planning on being alone, with no man, no marriage. I need to know these things. There's still a lot I have to catch up on, but I've learned a lot this year from my pops. I'm definitely going to subscribe to this guy though.

According to Dr. Watts, optimism and hope aren't the same thing. "First, I need to make a distinction between hope and optimism, as Terry Eagleton does in his 2015 book called 'Hope without Optimism.' Optimism is more a matter of prediction. Hope is more a matter of attitude," Dr. Watts explained the difference between the two.
"In the present situation, I don't think there are any good grounds for optimism, and to be optimistic would be a retreat into a fantasy world," he pointed out. "However, even in present circumstances, it is possible and really helpful to maintain a positive, hopeful attitude."
Unfortunately, there's is no single surefire way of keeping that hope alive when things are tough. "Practice helps. It depends on a long process of cultivating a positive mindset. It is useful to be clear that hope does not depend on believing that everything is going to be fine. It is more an act of will."

Donald Holder 5 years ago
Wow. The simplest of things like writing a letter of appreciation can mean the world to someone. Thank you Sara fir your caring.
Even though most people don't distinguish between hope on the one hand and optimism on the other, the internet is full of advice on how to keep your spirits up even if things seem incredibly challenging. One of the ways to stay optimistic even when times are incredibly tough is sitting down and thinking about all the things that you’re grateful for having. Gratitude journals can help out with this, even though they might sound cheesy.
There are other ways to maintain your optimism, too. For example, Select Health stresses that taking care of yourself is vital when things are hard. That means exercising, getting plenty of rest, setting time aside for your hobbies.
And, yes, that even means treating yourself from time to time: whether it’s sinking into a hot bath after a long week at work or sneaking in an hour of video gaming in between doing homework (we won’t tell if you won’t). When you do what you love without guilt or shame, suddenly the world feels brighter, doesn’t it? As long as you don't overindulge, of course.

Sadio Mane, The Liverpool Star Earning Approximately $10.2M Per Year Has Given The World A Lesson In Modesty After Some Fans Spotted Him Carrying A Cracked iPhone
His response is legendary:
“Why would I want 10 Ferraris, 20 diamond watches and 2 jet planes? What would that do for the world? I starved, I worked in the fields, I played barefoot, and I didn’t go to school. Now I can help people. I prefer to build schools and give poor people food or clothing. I have built schools & a stadium; we provide clothes, shoes, and food for people in extreme poverty. I give 70 euros per month to all people from a very poor Senegalese region in order to contribute to their family economy. I do not need to display luxury cars, luxury homes, trips, and even planes. I prefer that my people receive a little of what life has given me,” Mane said.

And just a mention for another very wealthy footballer, Marcus Rashford (£10.4 million per year salary) who started a concerted Twitter campaign that actually forced the UK government to U-turn over their refusal to provide Covid- support food vouchers for some of England’s poorest families over the school holidays. He tweeted "Just look at what we can do when we come together. This is England in 2020". Good man.

In a week where professional footballers have not exactly covered themselves in glory this is a wonderful example of how not all professional sportspeople have to be behave like animals.

It's true, I was in a coma and then in and out of consciousness for approx 6 weeks. I knew what was going on around me, even though sometimes it took me an hour or two to figure what was real and what was imagined. I heard the nurses gossip, my mother and father visiting, and everything around me. When they put ice around me during a fever I was hallucinating that I was elsewhere when suddenly I was surrounded by bags of ice etc. I still vividly remember much of this three years later.

Me In First Grade Pre Surgery vs. Me In 2020
Had several surgeries due to birth defects. Just completed the dental treatment (which included having my jaw wired shut for several months). Very happy with the results
Katie YoureOnKatieCam 5 years ago
I might be confused, but trying to see the best in people here - maybe Russian Otaku meant that they hope she's not American because of how much all of the surgery would cost? (Due to the lack of healthcare system) - for example, in America that may have costed hundreds of thousands of dollars, whilst here in the UK it would all be free. (Payed for automatically out of our regular taxes) I hope that's what they meant, who knows xx

Yes, and also the amount of pain she can withstand. Scar tissue hurts SO much to have tattooed. I'm quite inked and I'm an excellent sitter (talked and laughed through getting the top of my food done), but having my scoliosis surgery scar tattooed hurt like nothing I'd ever felt before. I had asked my tattoo artist/friend beforehand, and he said it would hurt less. When we were done, I asked him if I was just weird and he said, "Oh no, scar tissue hurts way more, but I knew how badly and how long you've wanted this and I wasn't about to let you psych yourself out of it."

There was a group that brought around lions, a tiger and bears for people to see (and feed with dog kibble). I thought it was the saddest thing I'd ever seen in my life because they were all in tiny cages that had poo everywhere and they would just either lay in the poo or pace back and forth as best they could. It was pretty evident that they were extremely stressed out. Fortunately they made it illegal to even own animals like that where I live.

These Teens At The Skateboard Park Treating My 5-Year-Old Like He's One Of Them
CelSlade 5 years ago
I've seen a few posts like this about the sweetness of kids at skateparks and I want to add one; when my son was little he desperately wanted to skate. All his friends and cousins had boards and it's all he wanted. But, he had Perthes disease and even a little bump could have resulted in an operation and years of recovery. So no skating. But, he loved to watch the guys at the skatepark. One day he asked if he could go up close. This sweet, shy 6 year old started asking he guys questions and all these teenagers happily answered. I quickly explained the situation so they wouldn't offer to show him how - but they had no issue with it and just kept on showing him tricks and explaining how it all works. You should have seen the look of joy on his face! I'm so grateful to those guys and I wish they could see him now, 12 years later, skating like a pro with all his mates. Best thing is - he is just as gentle and as sweet as they were. Can't tell you how proud I am of him, and them.
Katy McMouse 5 years ago

After Seeing These Signs For Months, I Finally Found Some Good News On My Walk Today
Lousha 5 years ago (edited)
Had a neighbour I'd never even seen but used to see her dear old cat sitting on her doorstep almost every morning as I went to work. The cat never left that spot, never wondered out of the garden. Just before last Christmas she knocked on our (and all neighbours') door to ask if we've seen him. Then there were flyers and FB posts announcing he'd gone missing. Soon he was presumed dead. After 7 weeks he was found at the other end of town all hungry and afraid. It made me soooo happy. They moved since but I still "stalk" them on FB to see how Jasper is doing :)

High School Club Sponsors A Free Necessities Board For Students Including School Supplies And Hygiene Items
Pseudo Puppy 5 years ago
stuff like this, is invaluable for those determined to make a better life, but are currently facing challenges. Brilliant idea!!

My high school never permitted either. For years various student and parent bodies were asking for them in bathrooms, got declined every time, even when they would've been free for the school. I could almost understand the reluctance to let the condoms in but tampons?! It's not like it's a choice to menstruate...

Sonja's right, it won't work in U.S. While standing in line to register for M.D. apptmnt, I saw people grab items from counter. When I got to the front desk, I asked what all the commotion was about. I was told the hospital was giving away samples of Vaseline & "everybody took 4 or 5 containers" [each had 8oz]. A container of 100 lasted 5 mins 'cuz this country raises greedheads. Gimme something-for-nothin' demanders, I'm "entitled." Vulgarians.

Neat concept. Might be embarrassing taking these items in full view of all your peers.

Much better than "Can't come to work today. I have a cat or two on my lap."

A doe will stash her fawns in a safe place while she goes to eat and find water. Young fawns aren't strong enough to keep up with her while she forages. If you see a fawn that looks abandoned, don't touch or move it. Mom will be back to nurse it even after several hours have passed.

This is even more amazing because businesses during this time were selling masks at a huge mark up.

I Found A Bee Collapsed In The Sun So I Gave Him Some Of My Pancake And Some Sugar Syrup Now We Are High Fiving

Sugar and water. I carry an empty make-up bottle full of it at all times.

It's better to give them plain water in warm months when they are out and about for honey production. Sugar water can contaminate their honey stores.

False. They do eat sugar. My dad was a beekeeper for years. And they need to be fed sugar solution before winter to survive.

Amazing Dad

I get the cochlear-aid tattoo...how swell to make the kid feel she's not the only disabled one. But what's with the earring? Jewelry has no purpose [except to show off that u can afford gold & gems] & should be abolished. [There's replicas that cost 1/100th of the real thing which most people keep locked in safes anyway. It's elitist, has no function [except to distract], is usually ugly & the $ wasted on it can get electricity for 1/2 the world that doesn't have it...or potable water. That'll display the size of your heart, dad.

Look at that! U see effort?! That's what it's called. I can't get a bunch of CVS staffers & hospital employees to write me a tk-u note/card for buying 'em all two 3-layer masks so they can survive COVID~19 [I even included filters]. Not a one outta 23 [that's 46 masks]. Dad gotta rare heart. This country [U.S.] is teeming with ingrates. I barely know ½ of these vulgarians. Go replace Fauci, grrl!

Lately, for a while, I haven't been feeling well. I've had my ups and downs, but I remained worried, demotivated, and feeling lost thoroughly. I'm logging into BoredPanda for the first time in a few months to say, thank you so much for this article. It's the news I didn't know I needed so badly. I cried, I smiled, I felt gratitude and hope and a renewed sense of love and joy for all around me. Even if I have my ups and downs, I still have a lot of reasons to persevere and be happy, and this article opened my eyes to that. I wish the best for everybody, to quote Dr. Seuss, “Because when you stop and look around, this life is pretty amazing.”
