In a perfect world, nothing would go wrong and every day would be a good day . But, where’s the fun in that? Even on the worst days , you can find some good out there.
The pictures in this list may not be able to cure an unlucky streak or anything, but they’ll still make you smile. And that’s always going to count for something.
RELATED STORIES
“Elsa loves to play ball, but this new one leaves her confused.”
Okay, but that doggy smile is really infectious! Sure, she might not know how to play with that ball, but I’m sure she loves it all the same.
“I took a picture in Venice.”
I love how focused that kid is on getting the perfect shot. It’s actually really heartwarming. And I’m sure the whole family got to take a group photo at some point, too.
“It’s my husband’s birthday and we have the best friends to celebrate with!”
Sometimes, you don’t have a lot of people to celebrate your birthday with. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still have a party with your favorite friends, even if they aren’t technically people.
“The card my son bought and signed completely on his own for his (new-ish) step dad.”
I guess the kid must’ve taken a liking to his new step-dad pretty quickly to want to take the initiative to do this for him. That’s so incredibly sweet!
“My big sister and I accidentally recreated a picture from our childhood at a get together recently.”
“…and it made me realize that she’s been giving me the same comforting big sister hugs since we were tiny little things. I love her so much. I’m going to call her today and tell her how much I love her.”
Reminder to hug your sister today!
“An effective strategy at any age.”
Okay, that’s just hilarious! But it also seems like it would work. Sometimes you have to find something your partner likes so you can get a couple of hours of shuteye in without them bugging you.
“I took a picture of baby raccoons on a fence.”
Raccoons may be vicious, annoying, disease-ridden, and dangerous if they get close to your pets… but they’re also really cute. A baby raccoon is never not going to make me smile. From a distance.
“Got a call asking if I could help this little one last night. I spent the night warming and feeding her and today she’ll go to a wildlife rehab so she can one day be released back to a forest.”
Excuse me while I go cry over how cute this baby deer is.
“I took a picture of a bonsai which started being trained in 1945.”
This is absolutely gorgeous! Sometimes, stopping to admire something beautiful, like a bonsai tree or another part of nature, is just the pick-me-up you need in the day.
“Seems like a completely normal request.”
This is probably the most random thing you could request from a hotel, but I’m glad this person finally got their wish! All I can say is, if I were a hotel employee, I’d be honoring those kinds of requests every single time.
“Wholesome weather guy.”
As it turns out, we don’t need weather apps. We just need somebody to tell us what the weather’s going to be like, and make us feel nice at the same time!
But then, how would they know the weather…?
“Certainly cracked me up.”
I hate how much this actually made me laugh. I guess this kid has already mastered the kind of weird, sort of surrealist humor people are into these days. She has a future as a comedian ahead of her!
“Moose is very proud of himself for graduating from training, as are we.”
It’s graduation season, which means parents all over are going to be proud of what their kids have accomplished. And I guess that also means kids of the non-human variety.
“Bumble bee outside my front door.”
No thoughts, just vibes. Since there are a lot of different bees on the endangered species list , it’s nice to just see one doing its thing, pollinating plants and all that. You can’t not love bees (from afar)!
“LPG gas technician came to fix a leaky pipe, said his 8 Year old daughter made the badge and he will wear it all day.”
I think the best thing in the world is when parents cherish all the things their kids make for them. If I were this dad, I’d be so proud to wear that badge.
“I took a picture of a firework behind an old tree.”
This is just so cool! It almost makes me wish that trees would light up at night like that (even though that would probably be a really bad idea). But at least we can appreciate this pic!
“I took a picture of a happy duck.”
Yup, that sure is one happy duck. I know that when animals “smile,” they aren’t actually smiling the way we do. But I like to think that they’re still in good moods.
Nothing like a little organization in your life.
Cleaning a palette out can be pretty time-consuming, but the end result is always worth it. I mean, getting something from a messy state to an organized one is nothing short of satisfying.
“My daughter showed me the rings of Saturn with her telescope this morning for Father’s Day.”
The best part about Father’s Day is knowing that so many kids got to spend the day bonding with their dads, step-dads, and father figures. So wholesome!
“I went to the zoo today and saw a beautiful baby leopard with ice blue eyes.”
It’s so funny to think about how some of the world’s deadliest predators were all once cute, cuddly babies. I guess in a way, that includes us humans, too…
