Feeling like there’s no good left in the world? It happens. Maybe you’ve had more than enough rudeness, cruelty, and insensitivity for this week, and need a dose of wholesomeness to remind you that it’s not all bad.
That’s why we at Bored Panda put together this list of moments that warmed our hearts by showing us the bonds that form within families, communities, and beyond when people (and not only people!) extend kindness and support to others. These images show that it doesn’t matter whether a gesture is simple, or grand – you can never show your loved ones that you care too many times, it pays to lend a helping hand to someone going through adversity, and a random good deed for a stranger can make thousands of people smile.
P.S. If you’re done scrolling but still feel thirsty for more wholesome stories, fire up Bored Panda’s earlier lists: You Will Be Smiling Like An Idiot After Seeing These 239 Wholesome Pictures, and If You Think The World Is A Terrible Place These 217 Wholesome Pics Will Change Your Mind.

Yesterday, unknown to him while he was watching television, this group saw smoke coming from the roof of his house. Rather than ignore it, they were concerned for their neighbor and alerted him.
