50 Incredibly Wholesome Things That Happened This Year That Might Restore Your Faith In 2020
It's not every day you see the whole year becoming a meme for how disastrous it’s going. Just take a look at people trying to laugh through it all in our previous posts here and here, and check out the "2020 described in one word" challenge right here.
Essentially, at this point, most of us are severely deprived of feel-good emotions. You need no doctor to say that the worldwide chaos has been taking its toll on us. But thankfully, there’s an antidote that’s said to soothe your soul and give you a much-needed fix of wholesomeness.
Sit back, relax, and get ready for the Bored Panda compilation of wholesome posts that will bring back hope in humanity and our future, because as long as we have these nice people, we are all going to be alright.

Be More Like Abdul
Back to work today, forgot my pass so locked bike outside Cannon Street station. Left work at 6 pm to find just the cut lock and no bike, resigned to never seeing my trusty stead again asked the station if they have cameras. A guy appeared waving at me, asked me to put the code into my cut lock. He replied ‘I have your bike’ with a smile I will never forget!! His name is Abdul Muneeb and he works for South Eastern Railways, he was on a break and saw a guy bolt cut the lock and challenged him to give it back, he then took it inside and waited 4 hours after his shift finished to personally make sure I got my bike back. The world needs more Abdul’s, he is a legend of a man and a credit to his employer.

10 Years Of Work But It Was Worth It! I’m A Provider At The Same Place I Used To Clean
The recent COVID Response Tracking Study conducted in May showed that Americans are the unhappiest they've been in 50 years. 31% of respondents said they were happy in 2018, but this year, only 14% could say the same thing.
Keeping your spirits high in these challenging times may often feel like mission impossible, but however hard it may be, there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel. We just need to learn to see it. Experts suggest starting from physical exercise, good sleep, and meditation because a healthy body carries a healthy soul.
Gretchen Rubin, author of the book “The Happiness Project,” believes that connecting with people, even if it’s not face-to-face communication, is also key.
“Ancient philosophers and contemporary scientists agree that connecting with people is truly important. We’re fortunate that we have so much technology we can use to connect with people who aren’t nearby.” She also suggests taking care of your loved ones and those who’re close to you, because empathy breeds feel-good emotions, and together we feel way stronger.

What A Legend
Rubin also says that decluttering the space around you is a way to boost inner happiness. “Decluttering can be difficult now, with more people home and a heavier load on your household, but whatever you can do can help give you a sense of control over your life.”
This sense of control is essential to whoever feels overwhelmed by the chaos which has been happening in the world lately. In the end, all things, good or bad, pass with time. Soon the challenges will become history, and some may even remember all this free time we have on our hands with yearning. So why not use it to the benefit of our well-being, both inner and outer?

Be The Change You Want To See In The World
A group of young kids caught me on my way into the store. Asked me if I wanted to make a bet. I replied “I’m a gambling man”. Older kid said he could ride a wheelie on his bike stop sign to stop sign. I said no way... and how much? He said 10 bucks. I said why 10? He said they wanted a large pizza at Dominos... I said deal. He came very close but couldn’t hold it his wheelie that long... While they were figuring out how to come up with 10 bucks, I had already ordered their pizza plus a 2 liter of Sprite. Made my night. Love seeing kids be kids.

Homeless Man Leaves A Donation For Oregon Historical Society After They Got Vandalized During Riots
"Since last night, we have seen new memberships and donations made online to support our work and the clean-up effort — but none have affected me as much as a gift from our neighbor, Oscar. In a note that accompanied a $1 donation, Oscar wrote: “Hello, I’m homeless so I don’t have much to give you, just some of my bottle collecting money. But I saw your windows got broken and wanted to help. You once gave me a free tour before the pandemic, so this is a thank you.” In my time as Executive Director, I have seen OHS receive truly incredible gifts — but this one has touched my heart tremendously."

This Guy Got Accepted To Harvard After Working As A Trash Collector To Support His Family
"So I got denied by all of the colleges I applied to after high school, so I picked up a job as a trash man to help my pops out. But a chance to go to Bowie State popped up. However, I needed to keep my job so I could help out my dad with the bills because my brother was already in college.
My brother legit dropped out of school after the semester finished so he could get a job to cover the bills, so that I could go to school.
That sacrifice is the only reason I’m going to Harvard Law School this fall.
This wouldn’t have been possible without you. I love you, big bro."

A Mourning Dove Had Been Trapped In Our Chimney For Hours. With His iPhone & A Flashlight Taped To A Board & Facetime Guiding The Way, Hubby Was Able To Retrieve The Poor Thing
A little more detail on the story: we noticed one of our cats was very interested in our fireplace yesterday morning, but we figured it was just weird curious kitty being weirdly curious. A few hours later, hubby (home teaching remotely) heard scratching sounds and thought something was in the chimney so he went on the roof to check. He saw this little dove waay at the bottom, resting on a ledge near the flue.
It took some repeated efforts (and resulted in soot. EVERYWHERE.), but eventually “Dusty” fell through the flue into the fireplace and I grabbed her with a blanket.
She was squinty and pretty lethargic, so I called a wildlife rescue and they advised we keep her in the small cage overnight with some food and water to let her recover from the stress. If she was still puffy and lethargic in the morning, we needed to bring her in (as a native species, she’s protected, so we can’t rehab without a license). After about 7-8 hours, Dusty showed some normal bird-like behavior and this morning she was ready to go. We let her out in the front yard near the bird feeders the doves love—probably what she’d been eyeing from our chimney.
And hubby bought a chimney cap so this doesn’t happen again.

Even if you make the best content in the world, there's a good chance nobody will ever see it. In the end it comes down to chance. I hate to sound like a boomer shitting on the younger generations, but it's sad that kids these days have such unambitious goals. I hope he has a backup plan for when his channel eventually falls through. Edit: Instagram influencers, too. So many kids want to be famous on YouTube or Instagram but the vast majority of popular kids' creators are massive douchebags with substanceless content, shallow narcissistic "personalities", & an affinity for flexing their money & success. I'm not saying this kid is anything like that, but the "role models" online are hardly worth trying to be like.

Before my hip surgery (I was only 45) I had to use a cane. My hip literally seized in the middle of the crosswalk and down I went. I couldn't believe how many people were by my side in a matter of seconds. I was fine, more embarrassed than anything. That was 12 years ago, but I still remember the polite concern of all those strangers.

Our neighborhood policeman would call using the phone at building entry before writing tickets and towing cars. He said the temporary no parking signs were put up at the last minute, so the tickets were unfair. Asking us to move our cars was easier and quicker. The building superintendents told him who owned which car. The week after the Marathon Bombing, police were working multiple shifts. The mayor asked them to help people feel comfortable and to answer any questions they could. My neighbor was struggling the day of the shelter in place order (not lockdown) She wanted to go outside and see the memorial. I went with her. A policeman saw us and raced over shouting, "Are you okay? Can I help?" We were not in near the active investigation, but still asked to shelter in place. Of course not every police officer was as thoughtful and people were treated harshly or unfairly elsewhere in the city. My experience may have been unique. I miss living there

I believe we all have kindness inside. How we use it matters. The above stories are examples of the possibilities of kindness.

For the last 3 years, 2 Saturdays before christmas at 11am-ish, I have bumped into a kid in Asda, a supermarket in the UK for our overseas pandas. The first time we were on the escalator and he said "High five for a merry christmas!" So for the fun of it I did it and it cheered me up and he noticed and said "And one more for good luck in the new year!" So I did. This year with the pandemic I have not been able to go to Asda and today at 11am in my very local supermarket, as I was queueing to get served I heard from behind me "High five for a merry christmas!" I turned around and he was standing there with a big grin on his face. We did a socially distanced air high five and the new years luck one and he left the queue. I asked him where he was going and he said "I only joined the queue to give you the high fives, stay safe mate!" and he left. That was 20 minutes ago. I have depression and this simple little act of kindness always helps see me through the year. I think he is about 14 or
